some grumblings that California Gov. Gavin Newsom is undermining President Joe Biden’s China policy, and perhaps even running his own “shadow campaign” for the presidency, by meeting with dictator Xi Jinping and other Chinese Communist officials during his trip to Beijing.
“I remind folks that carbon dioxide is only 0.04% of our atmosphere and that the contribution by the US is a tiny percentage of that. And the transportation sector and others is a tiny percentage of that. So chasing this carbon thing is just a means with which the government can further take over our economy and our choices,” he said.
President Joe Biden and California Gov. Gavin Newsom on September 13, 2021, in Long Beach, California. Fox quoted various pundits hitting the “shadow campaign” theme and speculating that Newsom might be overplaying his hand as “backup” candidate by making himself look like a more active and internationally respected diplomat than Biden. Some even thought Newsom’s domestic campaigning for Biden over the past few months looked suspiciously like the California governor laying the groundwork for his own run.
There is very little evidence that Xi was swayed by anything Newsom had to say, or intends to change even the most odious of China’s policies. If anything, Chinese state media has beenthe encounter as Xi finding Newsom more amenable to China’s existing policies than Biden, as though Newsom might return to Washington as Xi’s emissary to the sitting administration.
