<p>Sen. <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/john-fetterman" target="_blank" rel="noopener">John Fetterman</a> (D-PA) took a jab at <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/california" target="_blank" rel="noopener">California</a> Democratic Governor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/gavin-newsom" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gavin Newsom</a> on Saturday as intra-party tensions over the 2024 presidential election rise.</p>
<p>During remarks at an event in Iowa, Fetterman chided Newsom over suspicions that he is running a shadow campaign for the White House while publicly insisting that he supports President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden</a>&#8216;s effort to seek a second term with Vice President Kamala Harris again as his running mate.</p>
<p>“There are two additional Democrats running for &#8230; president right now,” Fetterman said, <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-press/meetthepressblog/sen-john-fetterman-swipes-california-gov-gavin-newsom-rcna123698" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according to NBC News</a>.“One is a congressman from Minnesota, the other one is the governor of California, but only one has the guts to announce it.”</p>
<p>The other Democrat referenced by Fetterman was Rep. Dean Phillips (D-MN), who <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/democratic-congressman-launches-primary-challenge-against-president-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced</a> a primary challenge against Biden last month while <a href="https://abcnews4.com/news/nation-world/congressman-dean-phillips-minnesota-challenges-biden-joe-democratic-presidential-primary-nomination-new-generation-leadership-2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener">calling</a> for a &#8220;new generation of American leaders.&#8221;</p>
<p>Newsom claims <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/09/us/politics/gavin-newsom-democrats-white-house.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he is deferring</a> to Biden&#8217;s <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4212961-newsom-says-biden-deserves-to-be-running/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">re-election bid</a> but has stoked a good deal of speculation about his political ambitions with travel to Israel and China as well as <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-ron-desantis-and-gavin-newsom-agree-to-debate" target="_blank" rel="noopener">agreeing to have a debate</a> with Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis, who is running for the GOP presidential nomination. The California governor even recently <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/newsom-sarcastically-wishes-he-was-president" target="_blank" rel="noopener">quipped</a> about how he wished he were president to better deal with foreign affairs.</p>
<p>Some of Biden&#8217;s <a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-election/joe-biden-presidential-debates-donald-trump-supporters-drop-out-b719368.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">supporters and others</a> have <a href="https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/4249496-hey-democrats-who-want-biden-to-drop-out-shut-up/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">called on him</a> to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/james-carville-and-bill-maher-agree-biden-should-not-be-the-2024-nominee" target="_blank" rel="noopener">consider</a> dropping out amid <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/two-thirds-of-americans-say-biden-does-not-deserve-another-term-as-president" target="_blank" rel="noopener">low approval numbers</a>, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/latest-2024-presidential-polling-trump-rises-above-biden-again" target="_blank" rel="noopener">unfavorable polling</a> in a hypothetical rematch against former President Donald Trump, and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/another-poll-shows-grim-numbers-for-biden-on-age-question" target="_blank" rel="noopener">concerns about his fitness</a> to continue serving as commander-in-chief at the age of 80.</p>

<p>Newsom <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/gavin-newsom-backs-kamala-harris-leading-the-democrats-if-something-happens-to-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> NBC in September that he thinks Democrats &#8220;need to move past&#8221; their worries about Biden and exclaimed, &#8220;Of course not,&#8221; when asked if he could imagine running against Harris.</p>
<p>Fetterman, who <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/john-fetterman-defeats-dr-oz-in-pa-senate-race-projection" target="_blank" rel="noopener">defeated</a> Dr. Mehmet Oz to win his Senate seat in Pennsylvania last November, has made headlines over the past year for his health struggles following a stroke and ensuing depression. He became the focus of the fight over the short-lived relaxing of the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/senate-ends-fetterman-rule-by-approving-formal-dress-code" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Senate&#8217;s dress code</a> as he often skirted around the rules with his penchant for casual wear.</p>
<p>Fetterman has also not shied away from criticizing fellow Democrats, calling on the Senate to <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=feterman+menendez+expel&amp;oq=feterman+menendez+expel&amp;gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIJCAEQIRgKGKABMgkIAhAhGAoYoAEyCQgDECEYChigATIJCAQQIRgKGKAB0gEINDkyMmowajSoAgCwAgA&amp;sourceid=chrome&amp;ie=UTF-8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">expel</a> Sen.
