The poll comes as Newsom has taken a more aggressive position in standing up to President Donald Trump.

The poll indicates support for the more aggressive position Newsom has taken in standing up to Donald Trump, particularly over a plan by Republicans in Texas to redraw their state’s congressional seat map in the hopes of winning more seats in midterm elections next year.

The battle to become the 2028 presidential election candidate will likely set the new direction for the Democratic Party as it struggles with net favorability at what one recent poll showed to be a three-year low. Newsom has not formally announced his candidacy.

    @jordanlund I don’t think hormones can change your species. They would be much better at changing sex but I don’t think we have the technology to fully change sex yet.
    Hormone therapy just changes your appearance IIRC. It can’t give you a functional womb, ovaries, or testes. And it can’t make you produce functional opposite sized gametes.

      @jordanlund
      If it did, I might be more comfortable referring to trans people who have undergone such an operation as their adopted sex.

      But it HAS to not be forced. That is NON NEGOTIABLE.
