President Newsom's statement

Governor Newsom Press Office (@govpressoffice.gov.ca.gov) 2026-03-17T04:07:37.557Z


in case you missed it

Trump:

"The President of the United States Gavin Newscum admitted that he has learning disabilities."

Yes, he actually called Gavin Newsom the "President of the United States" while trying to insult his cognition.

The more I think of it, the more I’m liking the sound of it. And the looks of it, too!

President Gavin Newsom. Hey, who knows? A LOT can happen in a couple of years.

While I love Newsom's trolling of Drumpf, I don't think he's the right choice for the next Democratic choice for President and I'm a California resident that's a staunch liberal leftist.

economy on the planet.

2. And since you're new, maybe lurk more, since a lot of other liberal Californians are also on DU; maybe open the and type Newsom to bring up past DU posts about Newsom.

He offers something different that’s for sure. And many of these ideas would win over independent voters.

Let Gavin Newsom have eight years to repair some of the damage done by the idiots you keep weighting us down with on the GOP side. Then after he's repaired the economy, restored peace and prosperity to all Americans, and you've been enriched once again by democratic policies, you can do the wrong thing and vote in the next batch of unworthy idiots to ruin all of the progress made.

p.s. please use birth control. The world needs less of people like you!

So in my book, better some newscum than extraordinarily vile and quite rancid OLDscum.

Dear -rump,
