The quiet campaign to stop Kamala 2028 is growing louder
Key Points:
- Reid Hoffman, a major Democratic donor, expressed skepticism about Kamala Harris's chances in a 2028 presidential run, signaling a shift among key party donors away from her candidacy.
- California Governor Gavin Newsom stated he would not run for president if Harris entered the race, suggesting early pressure on Harris to make a definitive decision soon.
- Harris's allies emphasize her strong early polling and support among Black voters and women but acknowledge a waning elite consensus and donor backing for her campaign.
- In Maine, immigration has become a pivotal issue in the Senate race following a fatal ICE shooting, with progressive faith leaders mobilizing in opposition to federal immigration enforcement policies.
- Conservative evangelical groups, including Turning Point USA chapters, have gained political influence in Maine, intertwining faith and Republican politics, particularly around issues like transgender student athletes.
