The poll comes as Newsom has taken a more aggressive position in standing up to President Donald Trump.

The poll indicates support for the more aggressive position Newsom has taken in standing up to Donald Trump, particularly over a plan by Republicans in Texas to redraw their state’s congressional seat map in the hopes of winning more seats in midterm elections next year.

The battle to become the 2028 presidential election candidate will likely set the new direction for the Democratic Party as it struggles with net favorability at what one recent poll showed to be a three-year low. Newsom has not formally announced his candidacy.

    The fascists aren’t going to get more tame and stupid either. Donald is the attenuated live virus given to us like a vaccine so we can make laws that prevent the next one from coming but it’s a test all of our institutions are failing horribly, so the next one is gonna blindside them again.
