Gavin Newsom says it's "not the moment" for him to run for president

California Gov. Gavin Newsom insists he is not interested in running for president, although he's bought ads in Florida and Texas to troll their GOP governors, elevating his profile ahead of the 2024 election as President Biden weighs whether to run for reelection. 

"It's not my ambition," the Democrat told CBS News chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett in an exclusive interview on Saturday. "It's not the direction that I'm leaning into. It's not the moment." 

When pressed on whether he could say he will never run for president, Newsom said, "Yeah, I have no interest."
