Gavin Newsom Just Humiliating Trump 24/7 Now

Sorry if it’s not the messenger people want, but California Governor Gavin Newsom continues to teach a master class on how to humiliate Donald Trump and expose him daily as the clown he is and — important! — not actually an all-powerful dictator.

Perhaps you’ve already read our post on the bullshit Trump’s Gestapo pulled at Newsom’s press conference yesterday, where the governor announced that he’d be calling an election in November to let voters weigh in on whether they’d like to gerrymander the state hilariously to fuck, in order to counteract what the Nazis are doing in the slave states. (The initiative would only kick in if the Nazis rig the slave states.)

“Donald Trump, you have poked the bear, and we will punch back,” said Newsom during that press conference, and goddamned right. It’s about time Democrats brought nuclear weapons to the nuclear weapons fight. (Cue the fake-ass Republican histrionics about WAAAAAAAAAH, THE LIBS ARE THREATENING VIOLENCE! whenever we use totally common expressions and it wasn’t even our terrorists who tried to 9/11 the Capitol on January 6.)

Here is what Newsom’s social media team did after that press conference. They are getting better and better and better.
