California Gov. Newsom to Debate Florida Gov. DeSantis
Why are these two debating? Only one is running for office and it’s the presidency, not governor of California. And the other one isn’t running for anything … at least not overtly.yeah, there’s a lot going on under the surface here. Let’s dive in and see if we can figure it out.
Newsom has been challenging DeSantis to debate for months now. Newsom has called him a bully for erasing civil rights victories, abortion laws, immigrant protections and LGTBQ+ rights. He even released a video inviting Floridians to move to California.so why does Newsom want to debate DeSantis? He’s not running for president, right? Wrong. Newsom has been running a presidential campaign under the radar for about a year, long before Biden announced he would seek re-election.
The White House actually called Newsom to find out his intentions, but he assured them he would not run if Biden was running. And he has kept that promise. Sort of. Newsom has been doing high profile events on behalf of Biden. The Biden campaign is using him as a surrogate. He’ll even be attending the second Republican debate on behalf of Biden.
