Tucker Carlson unveiled moves to make Gavin Newsom the Democratic alternative to the White House. Despite the California Governor's repeated denials, saying "not on God's green earth," he went so far as to claim that Newsom's latest moves and his war against Ron DeSantis as a champion of national woke liberties, seem to indicate that he has kicked off his shadow campaign. He expressed his uncertainty about Joe Biden's age, and especially his health. He suggested that Vice President Kamala Harris would likely finish the term as president, an idea that does not exactly excite the Democratic Party.

"No one wants Kamala Harris to be president"
Carlson claimed that Democratic voters "should be a little worried," because Biden, who will be 86 at the end of his second term, has "begun that descent" from "acuity to permanent unconsciousness." In fact, the former Fox anchor stated that few believe that the current president would be able to finish his term, so the vice president would have to take over. Harris is not exactly the most popular choice at the moment, with one poll showing her as the lowest-rated vice president in history.
That means Kamala Harris will become President of the United States. And nobody wants that. Not even her husband. In real life, nobody likes Kamala Harris, That’s not an attack on her. In fact, it’s possible to feel pity for someone who’s so universally reviled. It is instead an observation of unchanging physical reality, like gravity or photosynthesis. Nobody wants Kamala Harris to be president. No one will benefit if she becomes president.
Newsom: "‘I get mesmerized by you, Joe Biden"
This is causing the Democratic Party to seriously look for an alternative to Biden. According to Carlson, he would have to be "as shallow, ruthless and transactional" as the president himself. According to the host, "there is only one man in modern America who fits that description. Gavin Newsom, governor of California and, perhaps not coincidentally, Joe Biden's new closest friend."
Carlson, moreover, used Newsom's words during Biden's visit to California last week to warn the president:
"I get mesmerized by you, Joe Biden." Imagine saying that as a compliment. You couldn’t do it. Few human beings could do it, but Gavin Newsom had no problem at all. Those words rolled right off his fork tongue. He never stopped smiling. So if you’re looking for the leader of the coup, there he is right there.
