Gov. Gavin Newsom’s First Threatening Message to President-Elect Trump
Newsom: An autocratic ruler with little political credibility, but with self-delusions of grandeur
By Katy Grimes, November 7, 2024 7:23 am
California Governor Gavin Newsom needs a beach day. Traveling around the country as President Joe Biden’s surrogate during the 2024 election cycle backfired when the Obama/Pelosi party leaders cancelled Joe and moved Kamala Harris in as the presumed candidate.
Newsom came back to California and kept a relatively low profile until Election Day. But it’s not to self-reflect – Democrats don’t self-reflect. They retreat to their coastal compounds and strategize on how to regain power.
Following Donald Trump’s big win Tuesday, leaders from all over the world offered congratulations.
Newsom issued his own message:
Kamala Harris set out to fight to defend our fundamental freedoms and build a country that works for everyone. She stood up for working families, decency, and opportunity. Though this is not the outcome we wanted, our fight for freedom and opportunity endures. California will seek to work with the incoming president — but let there be no mistake, we intend to stand with states across our nation to defend our Constitution and uphold the rule of law. Federalism is the cornerstone of our democracy. It’s the United STATES of America.
The problem is that Gavin Newsom doesn’t offer the people any more than Kamala Harris did – they serve up word salads and platitudes, and few specifics on the economy, border, or crime.
But Newsom has a record, and it’s not pretty. We know what his record is, and he’s been one of the most radical, autocratic, leftist governors, as we’ve documented in detail at the Globe.
I’m not alone in my assessment.
A few of the responses to Newsom’s message:
- Please reverse some of these Woke laws. They are an active handicap to any Democrat electoral efforts.
- Your days are numbered @GavinNewsom. California doesn’t even like you.
- You talk about fundamental freedom while signing vaccine mandate laws? You’re out of your mind, Gavin.
- Americans have spoken, and they REJECT the Democrats extremism, lawfare, and EPIC FAILURES of policies across all fronts.
- Worst Governor in the U.S. says what?
- Why does everyone want to leave your state?
- You did this.
California physician Houman David Hemmati, MD, PhD. has a message for Gavin Newsom:
Newsomism is the bankrupt, arrogant political ideology where government knows what’s best for you/kids, where you can’t complain, & where government leaders are Orwellian pigs, exempt from their own laws. After this election, Newsomism & @GavinNewsom political future, are done.
Dr. Hemmati said he received dozens of negative comments about Gavin Newsom’s future in politics.
Here are a few of the comments from Dr. Hemmati’s tweet post:
- He needs to go work his wine company. The democrats do not know how to self reflect. London Breed voted OUT Pam Price recalled Sheng Thao recalled Gascon voted OUT #36 passed. Trump won against Californias Kamala Harris . The people don’t want what he represents!
- Newsom and his ilk are indeed done. It wasn’t just Harris that was rejected yesterday. It was a whole ideaogy that condescends, destroys and suppresses. As Dr. Hemmati says, Newsom is finished. There will be no “2028”. Best thing the “left” can do now is learn from their serious and egregious mistakes made over the past 4 years. But they won’t.
- I hope you’re right, but I feel like Pelosi is going to keep a seat warm for him.
- Gavin Newsom continues to run California into the ground, supporting onerous statues and regulations, driving thriving businesses and regular Californians out of the state, and letting in thousand of illegals into his sanctuary cities. Why on earth would any American vote for him to do the same to the country?
Remember, Gov. Gavin Newsom and the compliant Democrat Supermajority in the California Legislature closed your children’s schools, shut down your businesses, ordered your churches closed, cancelled holidays, masked your kids, mandated Covid shots to go back to work and school… while they exempted themselves from these mandates.
As we recently reported, California Governor Gavin Newsom’s political record in California is nothing short of a tin pot dictator – An autocratic ruler with little political credibility, but with self-delusions of grandeur.
Here’s the short list including headlines from the Globe’s reporting:

Pretty rich coming from a guy who wanted to muzzle doctors during the covid response. He did not want them acknowledging the real side effects of the mRNA ineffective shot!
This is the same guy that just pushed a bill through to penalize people who make memes on government overreach and political speech.
Sure this jerk stands for the constitution! Yeah Right! Liar, fake, fraud!
I wish I could laugh at how absurd Newsom is but he has damaged many families in this state!
Fortunately, the rest of the country has spoken and Mr. Newsom, they have made you and the California Libs irrelevant in the 2024 Presidential election!
God Bless America and God Bless President Donald J. Trump.
P.S.
Newsom you are not a protector of the Constitution, YOU sir are an ABUSER of the Constitution!
Without exaggeration, you are correct.
You think Trump is a protector of the Constitution? He does say he loves the uneducated ones of his cult.
Really!!!
Strap on your helmet and hold on as the final years of his governorship is going to be interesting. If the democratic leadership knew better they’d start pushing back on him and marginalize him. He doesn’t care what destruction occurs around him as long as it keeps him in the spot light. There has been some hopeful signs of this with support of Proposition 36 and the war on the oil/refinery industry. He is truly an A*s Hat that should be continually mocked until he responds in his own arrogant and increasingly crazy manner. He just can’t keep his mouth shut so maybe we have a contest on who gets the best crazy response
It is happening sooner than later.
James Roguski is encouraging Californians to get on a Newsom Zoom meeting tomorrow. He is up to something.

It’s going to be all about the money. When Elon Musk talks about cutting two trillion dollars from the budget, you have to believe a lot of that will come from California. California will have to get back to the basics of what a state should be doing for its citizens.
Excellent point@JohnDibble!
Newsom will lose Fed money for his sanctuary state status. No more federal bailouts when they overspend and misspend Equal Employment funds! Where did all that money go?
By the way where is the final dollar amount on the state deficit? 35 billion, 60 billion… who knows!
No more bail outs for California.
I sure like what you’re saying!
LOL how silly you are.
You got that right! Newsom talks big, but spends even bigger. No bailout from President Trump. Good!
“An autocratic ruler with little political credibility, but with self-delusions of grandeur” …. Oops. I thought Newsom was talking about himself.
The technical term is “projection”…
The only reflecting Gavin is capable of doing is checking himself out in a giant mirror a thousand times a day.
Productive reflection, the necessary personal inventory that normal people routinely do, would cause him to realize he is a washed-up politician, irrelevant even as Gov of the largest state in the union, the formerly Golden State that he — almost single-handedly — vandalized and smashed. He could change his ways, begin to govern properly, but he can never get there because an honest inventory would be too much of a shock to his fragility. He can’t do it, he can only make things worse. His record shows he makes the exact WRONG decision nearly every single time. He gets the attention he craves while Californians suffer.
Newsom is done, but he doesn’t know it yet. And he has only himself to blame.
Bingo!
Mirror, mirror on the wall…..
🤡
Ha ha…..”who’s the corrupt-est of them all?….” “You are, Gavin…”
But Cali Girl, in Newsom’s defense he’s just checking the mirror to see if his clown suit is still on straight. 🙂
Love it,ShowandTell.
Except this just in..
He is trying to load the clown car fueled by out tax dollars! He just called a special session to fight Trump! I kid you not!
https://t.co/fIBPKsehot
Yeah, I heard. Sigh!
If there’s one thing Gavin is devoted to it’s being a bigger jerk than anyone else on Planet Earth.
Newsom and Bonta are going to do everything they can to thwart Trump’s attempts to deregulate California’s businesses and the dirty little secret is that behind all their self-righteous rhetoric they are puppets of an oligarchy that wants to roll up and control every scrap of remaining independent wealth and personal freedom. They are despicable, rotten, crooked, wicked, dangerous, destructive, deceitful, lying, and shameless. God help us if we can’t break their power.
Unfortunately, the vote in CA this week gives him or the democrats to worry little about.
Their massive spending bonds still were approved. All elected officials are reliable democrats.
I cant wait to see the reaction when gas goes up over night in the next couple of days due to the CARB ruling on C02 taxes on fuel!
Newsom is going to do exactly what he did last time President Trump was in office- sue Trump over a hundred times, fight against environmental deregulation, offshore drilling, the removal of illegal migrants and criminals, and to keep health care for illegals, transgender operations and abortions at taxpayer expense.
Of course all these issues are exactly why democrats lost. The bright side is that by doing this he will guarantee he will not be elected as president.
This is exactly what I have been thinking….
here we go. the liberal white knight of soy out to trample your joy. no stone will be unbroken by this meddler. omg recall this self proclaimed saviour, and his minioins too
Noisome is toast. He may be too stupid to realize it but Trump is ushering in an age of true law and order and one of the biggest parts of that is election integrity. Past and recent elections are going to be revisited and any fraud found will be dealt with. What they find will not be in the favor of Californian Demonrats.
Newsome, so you understand, I will use a Hollywood quote from the movie Get Shorty. President Trump is about to tell you:
“I’m the one telling you how it is. That’s not too hard to figure out, is it?”
My hope is President Trump will open discussions by informing you the immediate hold all federal grants from California due to your illegal alien sanctuary policy. I hope President Trump negotiates with you from an extreme position of We the People.
Newsome, you have lead California into a unknow deficit in the BILLIONS and now have no friends in the Oval Office. You have no leverage and have no popular support. You final years in office will be miserable for all of us, but some must suffer to understand the democrat super-majority in California has only rendered misery.
Andrew Wilkow said that President Trump should ride back into office on a horse named “RETRIBUTION”….
And I hope to God President Trump rides ROUGHSHOD over Gavin Newsom…. ROUGHSHOD…..
Hey, we’re on a roll!!!
Let’s re-ignite a “RECALL NEWSOM” campaign while we’ve got the momentum in our favor, and while he’s having another one of his progressive hissy-fits!!!
What a tool…..
All this bs. My uncle has lived for years and made lots of $ on public money contracts in the LA area. He sure won’t leave California. Newsom helps even the people who have the least. Not too bad. He can improve and change.m
The efforts by Newsom, Bonta and their criminal Democrat mafia cronies to stop Trump will not be successful and will eventually backfire on them?
They’re guilty of treason and other crimes? Maybe they’re panicking that Trump’s DOJ might go after them?
how do we get this ass clown out of office. He thinks he’s a voice, he thinks he is making a difference yet he isn’t. With fake elections on the way out this idiot doesn’t stand a chance in the next election but can we wait that long. Soon Aunt Pelosi will be gone and all the other corrupt political a d we will be able to elect a true leader for the people. He stands brave to say he will not follow Trump’s law when we have nonfed dollars he will quickly bend the knee
Californians are slowly but surely waking up to the reality of the Democrat Party failure, and are not buying their B.S. anymore. Here are Trump’s Presidential vote percentages in California for the past three elections.
2016 32%
2020 34%
2024 40%
Newson and the Democrats are frauds, and their scam is unraveling.
Thank you for posting those numbers, Protect Freedom. I was wondering about that very thing. They really paint in black and white a hopeful picture for California’s future.
Newsom’s got to go!
And yet. there he is. Still running my hone state further into the depths of hell.
Changes are really hard for many people. Admitting you were probably wrong is also very hard. BUT….allowing bad governing to continue (for many stupid insane reasons)…shows exactly why we are in the fix we are in! This state could be so much better for everyone …. except for the criminals who are still allowed to keep doing their LAWBREAKING devil’s work! THINK HOW GREAT THIS STATE COULD BE, FOR THE DECENT TAXPAYING CITIZENS, IF WE WOULD CLEAN OUT THE CRUD FROM HOLDING ANY POSITION OF POWER HERE! IMPRISION THEM IF NECESSARY! CAL. NEEDS TO DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO MAKE THIS A BETTER PLACE FOR THE RESPECTABLE, HARDWORKING, TAXPAYING, LEGAL CITIZEN, LAW-ABIDING, ALL AROUND GOOD NEIGHBOR AND TRUE AMERICAN! IT’S NOT THAT HARD TO BE A GOOD PERSON! SHAME ON THOSE THAT DO ALL THE WRONG, BAD, ILLEGAL CRAP! EITHER SHIP THEM OUT, LOCK THEM UP, BRING BACK THE DEATH PENALTY AND USE IT, OR TRY TO REHABILITATE SOME THAT WILL CHANGE! IT’S NOT THAT HARD TO BE A GOOD PERSON! THE RIF RAF DON’T DESERVE TO EXIST AMONG THE TAXPAYING, DECENT AMERICAN CITIZENS! CLOSE THE BORDERS UNTIL A NEW PLAN CAN MAKE THAT A SAFER SITUATION!!! Glad I’m old and won’t have to see what will happen to this now flailing, broken, infested, formally great USA! SHAME ON ALL WHO HAD A PART IN THE COMING DOWNFALL! LIKE THE FALL OF ROME! IDIOT HUMANS NEVER LEARN FROM THE PAST!
Newsome has more than just a little to worry about. With his ultra liberal agenda, he can say goodby to any federal money. He’s already destroyed the state with over taxation driving millions of residents and thousands of businesses out. More counties are turning red. People are getting awfully tired of Newsome’s incompetence. He’s directly responsible for putting California into the top 5 of the highest cost of living, most homelessness, highest taxed states in the country.
