California Governor Gavin Newsom’s Podcasts With Trump Loyalists Stir Democratic Anger

California Governor Gavin Newsom has sparked controversy and anger among Democrats by appearing on podcasts hosted by prominent Trump loyalists, Steve Bannon and Charlie Kirk. The move has raised eyebrows and fueled speculation that Newsom might be positioning himself for a presidential run in 2028. Critics argue that engaging with these conservative figures could undermine his credibility and alienate his voter base.

Newsom's appearances on 'War Room' with Steve Bannon and 'The Charlie Kirk Show' have been interpreted by some as an attempt to reach across the political divide. However, many Democrats feel that associating with Bannon, who played a key role in Trump's 2016 campaign, and Kirk, a vocal supporter of MAGA policies, sends the wrong message. Newsom has defended his decisions, emphasizing the importance of engaging in tough conversations to bridge gaps.

The backlash comes at a time when Newsom has been actively promoting Democratic policies and challenging Republican narratives. His strategy to engage directly with conservative audiences is seen by some as a bold move to expand his influence, but it has undoubtedly stirred a hornet's nest within his own party.
