Newsom train is coming for 2024! California governor in the White House is the ‘last thing America needs’

California resident and host of “The Next Revolution” on Fox News, Steve Hilton, warned viewers on Sunday that California Governor Gavin Newsom is the last person you want near the White House, amid speculation that the uber-progressive governor has risen to the top of the Dems’ list to replace President Joe Biden in 2024.

“Everyone knows Biden can’t possibly run in 2024…” Hilton said in his opening monologue, “but according to all the reports from Washington insiders, Democrats absolutely don’t want the obvious choice, Vice President Kamala Harris to be their candidate instead. So amazingly, almost overnight… California Gov. Gavin Newsom has become the favorite to be the next Democratic presidential nominee.”

Hilton took a look at Newsom’s record in The Golden State, and asked if it represents “the kind of transformative leadership America needs?”

“[What] could we expect from him? … He closed California public schools earlier and before anyone else… just under half the kids in California meet the state’s standards for English,” Hilton reminded viewers. “With math, a third of the kids are proficient in math… and that is great because as California Democrats have established, math is ‘racist.’ Now, we say that all this woke madness actually hurts black kids the most. But that’s just the narrative. Gavin has the facts. There is definitely one area where California is leading the nation: illiteracy. California has the lowest literacy rate of any state… isn’t that the kind of transformative leadership America needs?”

Speculation about a run from Newsom has been steadily growing this month.

Newsom has made very public attacks on conservative leaders, namely Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.

In celebration of the Fourth of July, the scandal-ridden governor joined forces with CNN and released an ad in Florida warning Floridians that “Freedom is under attack in your state” and urging them to move to California.

Given the conditions in Los Angeles and San Francisco, Newsom was mercilessly mocked for his efforts.

Even Governor DeSantis’s office hit back.

DeSantis spokeswoman Christina Pushaw pointed out on Twitter that Californians currently pay the highest income taxes in the nation, and Newsom wants those same struggling taxpayers to pony up for free healthcare for illegal immigrants.

Not only that, Californians are also paying the highest prices at the gas pumps, and few of them are blaming Russia for it.

And Florida’s chief information officer, James Grant, reminded followers that California’s governor “spent ‘Newsom for Governor’ dollars to run for Governor of, wait for it… Florida?”

“All while Californians continue exercising the freedom to vote with their feet and leave California,” he added. “Rich.”

And, of course, no one has forgotten Newsom’s blatant disregard for his own COVID rules during the height of the pandemic.

But, as Steve Hilton noted in another broadcast, hypocrisy seems to be a regular thing with Gavin Newsom.

 

Still, despite all of Newsom’s many failures, scandals, and policies that put his agenda above the people he is meant to serve, when he turned up at the White House on the day after Biden departed for Israel, the rumors of a Newsom run in 2024 exploded.

Hilton, like many Californians who love their beautiful state, does not want to see Newsom do to the rest of America what he continues to do to his own constituents.

“Look, I love California,” he said. “I am not leaving, I’m staying to fight for change. But take it from someone who lives here. These policies, these far-left extremist policies pushed by Gavin Newsom and the California Democrats, that is the last thing America needs.”
