Gavin Newsom Names The 1 Republican Who ‘Scares Me Almost More Than Trump’
California Governor Gavin Newsom on Wednesday tore into some of President Donald Trump’s biggest allies, calling them “frauds” and “phonies” for recognising the danger of Trump and still cosying up to him.
But he saved some of his harshest criticism for Vice President JD Vance.
“Vance, for whatever reason, scares me almost more than Trump,” Newsom told MS NOW’s Jen Psaki. “Talk about a guy who put a mask on and his face grew into it.”
Vance was once a major Trump critic, describing him as an “idiot,” warning that he could become “America’s Hitler,” and declaring himself a “never Trump guy.”
Newsom noted that Secretary of State Marco Rubio ― who called Trump a “con artist” and implied he had a small penis ― and Republican Senator Lindsey Graham were, along with Vance, once among Trump’s “most effective critics.” Now, they’re all part of his inner circle.
“What frauds! What phonies!” Newsom said. “But JD’s a unique fraud and phony, and he’s a little more dangerous.”
