California Governor Gavin Newsom may fail when it comes to political policy, but his ability to gaslight his base is off the charts.
In a recent clip, Newsom continued to evoke manufactured fear over the 2028 presidential election, which he now claims won’t happen.
“Wake up,” Newsom urged. “You will lose your country.”
“I am absolutely convinced there won’t be an election in 2028,” he said, claiming that President Trump tried to “steal” and “rig” the 2026 election “in plain sight.”

Newsom has been amping up his warnings about the integrity of the next presidential election, which he is presumably already running for, since he was hysterically trolled by a “Trump 2028” hat that was mailed to him.
The humiliation wasn’t enough to stop the seasoned politician, who is doubling down and receiving plenty more backlash for his latest contradicting comments.

…then what exactly, is he running for?

Apparently, he has a lot of extra time on his hands.
Then why is he trying so hard to win the Presidency in 2028?
This is so stupid.— Ellie A (@EllieGAnders) August 28, 2025

When the numbers suggest you don’t stand a chance of winning, deflect, obfuscate, and deceive. There, I just named three of Gavin Newsom’s major accomplishments.

Newsom is a lunatic and I’d bet there is a significant percentage of people who actually believe his nonsense.

He wouldn’t be the governor of California if there weren’t.
First he claimed last week that Trump will run for 3rd term in 2028 cuz somebody sent him a 2028 MAGA HAT.
Then he said he will run for 2028 presidency.
Now he claims there won’t be any election in 2028.
He is either desperate or confused.— California Auto Glass (@HONGLE28711028) August 28, 2025
Perhaps both. TDS appears to create havoc in the brain.
