Do you think Gavin Newsom becoming the face of Trump resistance movement could set him up for 2028 or nah?

Been noticing he seems to at least at the moment be leading a charge to set a coalition to fight back against Trump.

Given that Newsom is a very political figure- maybe he is genuine about this but I can't help but wonder if there is also some 3D chess here to set him up as a strong contender for 2028. What do you think, and do you think hr had a chance to win a democrat primary?
