They've put themselves in a bad position. If they replace him with Newsome, the party of DEI has to explain why they skipped over the VP, who was obviously appointed for all the boxes she checked, none of which were merit, and chose a white man.

I love it

Harris won't be the VP if it's Newsome. They are from the same state and while there is no constitutional requirement that they be from different states electors from that state can't vote for both Pres and VP. They would have to choose. Losing CA's electoral college votes for Harris would potentially push it to the Senate which votes by state. So no guarantee a Dem is chosen as VP in that instance.
