Newsom & Harris: ‘Maybe 2028, Maybe Not’ White House Showdown
California’s political soap opera starring Gov. Gavin Newsom and ex-VP Kamala Harris just dropped a teaser for 2028 that’s got more suspense than a Netflix binge. Newsom admitted on CBS that he'd be 'lying' if he didn’t consider a run post-2026 midterms — basically telling America he’s stalking the presidency like a low-key Tinder date. Meanwhile, Harris, busy touring with a book spilling tea on her 2024 MAGA fight and calling out Newsom for ghosting her calls, told the BBC she’s 'not done' but hasn’t RSVP’d to the race yet. Add in Newsom’s Trump-mocking merch and California redistricting rumbles, and you’ve got politics served with extra popcorn.

Newsom admits he might run in 2028, which means we can finally get past the 2026 midterms without awkward stalking news alerts. Meanwhile, Harris’ book tour doubles as a ‘maybe-I’ll-run-or-maybe-not’ suspense thriller. California drama’s better than any reality show right now.
Gavin Newsom says he could run for president but might also just binge-watch presidencies like Netflix series. Kamala's 'not done' is political speak for 'still deciding which chaos I want to star in next.' Spoiler: it’s going to be messy.
Kamala Harris ghosted Newsom’s call after Biden bailed, so now they’re both auditioning for 2028’s hottest reality TV show: Presidential Confessional. Expect a lot of subtweeting and merch hawking before any actual campaigning.
