We are often told to take the high road. But sometimes, stooping to their level is for the best and that is what is happening with Gavin Newsom. And it is pretty great to see.
Newsom, who is the Governor of California, has taken to social media to troll Donald Trump and use Trump’s antics against him. You know how Trump writes in capslock for some reason? Newsom and his official press office X account started to do the same. Any time someone tries to mock him? He comes back with some kind of witty one-liner.
And look, after the last year of dealing with Donald Trump’s nonsense, I think it is absolutely okay to have a good laugh at whatever Newsom and his people are up to.
It all really started with Trump’s continued attacks on Newsom. He hates the Democratic governor and has made that hatred known. Instead of ignoring Trump, as many others do, Newsom clearly has gotten to the point where he just doesn’t care about the President and frankly? Good. Sorry but taking the high road clearly isn’t working!
So Newsom’s social media trolling is truly and weirdly kind of cathartic to see.
All Donald Trump does is log onto his Truth Social account and mock people. He is just a bully and we’ve been told for years to be the bigger people and just ignore him. But what has that gotten us? Two terms of him destroying democracy. So yes, if that means that Gavin Newsom has to revert back to school yard tactics to take on the President, so be it.
I don’t know why his team decided that now was the time to lean heavily into making fun of Trump but it is genuinely the best thing to happen in recent months. So if we all get to just laugh a little over Gavin Newsom mocking the President of the United States, so be it. We deserve it.
