Gavin Newsom Recalls Absolutely Wild Phone Call From Trump | EUROtoday
Gavin Newsom on Tuesday recalled having had “many interesting” phone conversations with President Donald Trump, together with one which prompted California’s Democratic governor to declare: “You can’t make this up.”
The Trump-trolling potential 2028 Democratic presidential candidate appeared on Jimmy Kimmel’s late evening present to ostensibly promote his new memoir, “Young Man in a Hurry.”
During the interview, Newsom recalled a name with Trump the evening earlier than the president mobilized the National Guard to Los Angeles, an trade throughout which Trump later claimed he’d learn the governor “the riot act.”
Newsom, although, stated the dialog truly went very in another way:
“Here’s how it went. It was about 10:30 my time, 1:30 his time. And he goes, ‘Hey, Gavin. Gavin, what do you think of Newscum? What do you think of Newscum?’ It’s his nickname for me. I said, ‘What are you talking…?’ He goes, ‘It’s pretty original, right?’ I said, ‘Actually, it’s not. There was like an eighth grade bully that did that when I was a kid.’ And then he goes, ‘Well, MAGA is pretty good.’ I’m like, ‘Are we serious?’ I literally said, ‘Are we having…’ He goes, ‘Well, how many hats you think I sold last month?’ I said, ‘I don’t know.’ He said, ‘Like 211.’ I said, ‘That’s impressive.’ So, it was literally conversation like that. These are the conversations with Trump. You can’t make this stuff up. And about 12 hours later, he said he had read me the riot act and then moved forward with the federalization of the guard.”
“It’s a hell of a thing,” Newsom stated later of Trump’s phone method.
