Will Kamala Harris run again?<\/a><\/p>\nThe former US vice-president won’t commit to making another bid for the White House yet, but reiterates she’s “not done” with public service.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Democratic governor has sparred with the Republican president over the deployment of the California National Guard following immigration protests and Trump’s redistricting moves in Texas.<\/p>\n
Mr Newsom has also led a campaign to redraw California’s own maps to add five Democratic US House seats in response to the changes in Texas. Voting is underway on the so-called Proposition 50 and concludes November 4.<\/p>\n
“I\u2019m looking forward to who presents themselves in 2028 and who meets that moment. And that\u2019s the question for the American people,” he said in the interview that aired Sunday.<\/p>\n
The feud between Mr Trump and Mr Newsom does not seem like it is going away anytime soon.\u00a0<\/p>\n
On Thursday, President Trump acknowledged he had agreed to halt a show of federal force planned for San Francisco after appeals from tech executives and the mayor. Mr Newsom was mayor of San Francisco between 2004 and 2011.<\/p>\n
In the interview, Mr Newsom described Mr Trump as an “invasive species”.<\/p>\n
“He\u2019s a wrecking ball. Not just the symbolism and substance of the East Wing,” Mr Newsom said, referring to the demolition of that part of the White House to build a ballroom.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“He’s wrecking alliances, truth, trust, tradition, institutions.”<\/p>\n
Earlier this year, Mr Newsom launched a podcast in an effort to brand himself as a centrist.\u00a0<\/p>\n
During the show, he has held conversations with influential figures all across the political spectrum, from late conservative Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated on a college campus tour, as well as former Trump strategist Steve Bannon, to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who was former vice president Kamala Harris’ 2024 running mate.<\/p>\n
