Newsom and DeSantis agree to debate on Fox News

"Moderated" by Hannity. What's the fucking point?
Is Newsom angling for VP, or is he hoping Biden drops out of the race or something?
I think he's prepping for 2028. I still don't see the point here though.
I think this sends a few messages. It's not that dems are afraid to debate DeSantis, but it is beneath even the vice president to bother. Meanwhile, it keeps DeSantis alive longer, which creates turmoil in the GOP as allegiances are divided. And Gavin wants to raise his own profile so that people know who he is and he can skip the introductions should Harris need to pick a VP in the near future.
The only thing Newsom could do wrong is be unprepared for the debate.
I think Biden is giving him the spotlight so his name is in the news as a leader. Biden is trying to help him with 2028.
He’ll finish the terms in California by 2028, so prepping for that I would assume so dems have SOMEONE who is ANYONE. As I’m sick of the “omg Biden is the ONLY NAME AT ALL so it HAS TO BE HIM.”
He is waiting 4 years. The problem is that CA already has a ton of problems that he should be back home and solving, and instead he's wasting his time and everyone else's by doing these stupid debates. If he can solve the many problems that CA has in 4 years, he's a shoo-in to win the Democratic nomination in 2028.
Maybe providing an alternative candidate to pivot away from Biden if he continues polling so poorly against Trump?
Also, DeSantis is polling so far behind Trump currently, why should Biden go work ‘em over? Send out Newsom to handle the light work.
DeSantis could be seen as an alternative candidate if say, Trump ends up in prison, or has a health problem, and they decide not to run him this time. Seems unlikely Trump would ever agree to that, though.
