Since Donald Trump’s return to the White House nine months ago, his relationship with California’s Governor Gavin Newsom has evolved from wary pragmatism to open political warfare. The two men who have both been a foil to each other in American politics — have clashed repeatedly over wildfires, immigration, and federal authority. This has also turned California into a stage for some of the most dramatic federal versus state confrontations in Trump’s second term. Gavin Newsom, who has positioned himself as one of President Trump’s most visible Democratic antagonists, also said last week that he will consider running for President after the 2026 midterm elections. n18oc_crux | n18oc_world
