It depends on how much contempt they have for electorate. And their propensity to learn anything.

I don't like these odds

Didn’t learn much from 2016.

So in other words, Newsom IS going to be the nominee unless Hakeem Jeffries somehow becomes presidential material by developing a personality between now and 2028.

Personally I hope he Jeb!s the primary. The republican electorate very quickly figured out when an establishment candidate was being rammed through and rejected it spectacularly. Let's hope the Dems follow suit this time. There's still a lot of time between now and the primary.
