Scott Shafer: 我认为卡玛拉·哈里斯正在考虑竞选州长，但她需要先决定是否放弃2028年总统竞选，因为我认为两者无法兼顾。如果她将竞选州长视为某种安慰奖，选民们会看出来，这对她不利。她拥有很高的知名度，所以她比其他民主党候选人有更多时间来决定是否竞选州长。 Marisa Lagos: 我认为卡玛拉·哈里斯竞选州长的可能性是五五开，这对她来说可能比再次竞选总统更好，因为民主党内并没有人默认她会是下一位总统候选人。 Guy Marzorati: 目前已经有几位民主党人宣布竞选州长，包括现任副州长埃莱妮·库纳拉基斯、州教育总监托尼·瑟曼和前参议院临时议长托尼·阿特金斯；此外，一些共和党人也已经宣布参选。如果哈里斯参选，许多民主党人可能会退出竞选，这可能会让一些觉得自己没有损失的候选人脱颖而出。

Shownotes Transcript

California Attorney General Rob Bonta has filed a host of lawsuits against the Trump administration, as Governor Gavin Newsom tries to stay in Trump’s good graces to safeguard federal disaster aid. It could be a good cop-bad cop strategy from the state, says KQED’s politics team, who join us to talk about how the Trump administration is shaping state politics. We’ll also look at who might be eyeing the governorship to replace termed-out Newsom — and whether former vice president Kamala Harris could enter the race.
