Gov. Gavin Newsom is repositioning himself as a leading opposition figure against President Trump, reigniting his earlier confrontational style amid rising speculation about a presidential run in 2028. After adopting a moderate approach and controversial stances this year, such as conversations with MAGA leaders and critiques of his own party, Newsom's recent fierce rhetoric indicates a return to vocal opposition to the Trump administration. Criticizing the assault on democracy and threats regarding federal troops showcases his return to form, reaffirming his political convictions while navigating party dynamics and national aspirations.
My experience with Gavin Newsom is he usually gets to doing the right thing, even if he gets there in the wrong way. I think he was always going to end up being an opposition to Trump, but it just took him a circuitous route to get there.
Democracy is under assault before our eyes. This moment we have feared has arrived.

Newsom's latest rhetoric marks a shift away from what many in his party view as a moderate rebranding as speculation about his 2028 presidential ambition grows.
