Well, that explains it! All they have to do is survive Biden until August and then they'll appoint Newsom without any rigamarole. And there will be the honeymoon period for the Dems with Newsome that will carry through to the election. Hence the debate between Newsom and DeSantis. Though apparently Newsom said that neither of them will be the 2024 nominees for their party. We shall see.
It won't work. I don't think their rules finagling is going to matter in the end. And even if we make it to a 2024 election, which I don't think we will (I think the military will step in before that and delay the election.), Newsom has only survived recall in California by cheating. He can't cheat his way into the white house. If California doesn't even want him, you can be sure that the vast majority of the rest of the country isn't going to support him and I don't think Newsom has the backing to fund the level of cheating it would take. Then again, maybe that's what his California get-together with Xi was about.
Sounds like we're closing in on showtime.
Edit to add: check out the comments on this tweet. Lots of people explaining why nobody in America wants Newsom. Hilarious!
