Fetterman hits Newsom for not having guts to admit he's running shadow campaign against Biden
Gov. Newsom has denied he's running in 2024 despite rampant speculation otherwise
Sen John Fetterman, D-Pa took a shot at California Gov. Gavin Newsom over the weekend over what many have referred to as a shadow presidential campaign against President Biden
Let me say something that might be uncomfortable Fetterman said at a Democratic Party dinner in Iowa over the weekend Right now there are two additional Democrats running for Pennsylvania excuse me running for president right now One one is a congressman from Minnesota The other one is the governor of California They're both running for president but only one had the guts to announce it
Fetterman continued, I got to tell you, let me say I got an opinion If you are a Democrat that wants to criticize and go after Joe Biden our president just go ahead and write a check for Trump
The Pennsylvania Democrat was referencing a recent announcement from Democratic Rep Dean Phillips that he will be running a primary challenge to Biden while Newsom has faced accusations in recent months of vying for the job without officially announcing.
This trip here, he's trying to build a base GOP Congressman Doug LaMalfa told Fox News Digital last month in response to some high profile trips Newsom has taken, including to China as speculation grows that President Biden may not run for a second term He's running the back channels until Biden takes himself out and the party says Man we're going to get killed on this
Letterman's swipe at Newsom comes around the same time a New York Times Siena College poll showed that Biden trails former President Trump in the key swing states of Nevada Georgia, Arizona, Michigan and Pennsylvania
THREE WAYS BIDEN CHALLENGER DEAN PHILLIPS IS SENDING DEMOCRATS VALUABLE ADVICE
A Monmouth University poll released earlier this month showed that 76% of voters agreed Biden 80 was too old to serve another term compared to just 48% who said the same about Trump 77
Newsom has denied he's running for president multiple times, and when asked, he told News Nation's Chris Cuomo in September that he's not worthy of that conversation and that Biden deserves it
