President Joe Biden’s advisors are furious about Gavin Newsom’s plan to debate Ron DeSantis in the middle of the 2024 presidential campaign cycle, RadarOnline.com has learned.

In a surprising development to come after the California governor challenged DeSantis to a one-on-one debate earlier this summer, White House sources revealed that Biden’s advisors are “angered” about the potential Newsom-DeSantis “spectacle.”

Also surprising are reports that some Biden staffers fear Newsom is running a “shadow 2024 campaign” against President Biden and that the Newsom-DeSantis debate is part of that shadow campaign.

Wouldn't want someone besides the candidate the DNC unilaterally picked to be able to run for president. That would threaten democracy.
