SO. BREAKING: Governor Gavin Newsom arrives in Europe and ROASTS foreign leaders for “rolling over” for Trump because he’s a “T-Rex” and they need to “stand tall, stand firm, stand united” against him
It was time for some tough love and Newsom brought the heat…
“I can’t take this complicity of people rolling over. I should have brought a bunch of knee pads for all the world leaders,” Newsom said at the Davos World Economic Forum in Switzerland. “I mean handing out crowns, the Nobel prizes that are being given away. It’s just pathetic. And I hope people understand how pathetic they look on the world stage.”
“The Europeans should decide for themselves what to do. But one thing they can’t do is what they’ve been doing and they’ve been playing. This guy’s playing folks for fools, and it’s embarrassing,” he continued.
“[Trump is] a T Rex.,” said Newsom. “You mate with him or he devours you, one or the other, and you need to stand up to it… They need to stand tall, stand firm, stand united.”
“Look, a year ago, we should have been having this conversation, and they didn’t. And now you’re paying the price exactly what any one objective observer would have anticipated,” Newsom said. “And now you’re paying the price, exactly what anyone, objective observer, would have anticipated. We’d be where we are today.
“I don’t want to be hyperbolic about it, but this guy’s a wrecking ball,” he went on. “I hope people are waking up to what we’re dealing with. This is code red. I mean, you guys are still playing by old set of rules, everybody, the globe is, with this guy. He’s unmoored. It’s the law of the jungle, it’s the rule of Don, and I hope it’s donning on the world what we’re up against. I mean, this is serious.”
“This guy is, he’s not mad, he’s very intentional, but he’s unmoored, and he’s unhinged, and it requires you. The goal is whatever he wants it to be. The goal is the world in his image,” said Newsom. “He’s a narcissist. I mean, it’s just, it’s no advice, it’s common sense. Why don’t folks do what they say publicly, what they’re saying in private? Why don’t they just simply do what they know is right? I mean, everybody’s talking behind his back, they’re laughing, and meanwhile, they’re sucking up to him.”
“It’s embarrassing. I mean, this is, you’re modeling behavior for our kids, generations of folks. This is not diplomacy, this is stupidity,” Newsom added.
The governor is absolutely right. Trump only responds to strength. It’s time for the rest of the world to start pushing back and exerting real economic pressure to stop his increasingly dangerous behavior.
Beyond that, it’s great news that Newsom is attending Davos to represent California on the world stage and to provide competent, sane American leadership to counterbalance Trump’s deranged fascism. His presence there will remind the rest of the world that the United States is not defined by Trump. We are capable of producing real leaders and one day we’ll return to a state of sanity.
