Cali Governor Has Egg On His Face After Attempt To Attack President Trump Backfires
California Gov. Gavin Newsom really ended up with egg on his face after he tried to attack President Trump over the homeless problem his state is facing.
Newsom attempted to counter a tweet from President Trump attacking House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. The President said, “Nancy Pelosi’s District in California has rapidly become one of the worst anywhere in the U.S. when it come to the homeless & crime. It has gotten so bad, so fast – she has lost total control and, along with her equally incompetent governor, Gavin Newsom, it is a very sad sight!”

The governor felt he should respond and said, “I imagine Trump’s Christmas to be like that scene when the Grinch yells “I’m an idiot!” and his echo yells back “you’re an idiot!!”

Newsom then decided that he would send some tweets out informing the public how he has fought homelessness in his state and let’s say it didn’t go the way he hoped.
Earlier this month, @GavinNewsom launched half a billion dollars in emergency homelessness aid in the face of roadblocks from the Trump Admin.https://t.co/QfPqxcSE7g

As Newsom tried to deflect from his gross mismanagement social media didn’t let him off the hook. They reminded him long before Trump was President that he was a member of the San Fransisco Board of Supervisors from January 8, 1997 to January 8, 2004. During, that time Newsom put the policies in place that made San Fransisco one of the crappiest (pun intended) cities in the country.
Over the last decade, the number of homeless in America declined 10%; in California, it grew 22%.
And yet “resistance to dealing with it remains endemic among ruling Democrats & in nominally progressive cities”https://t.co/doEI9gITXB

I imagine Newsom’s Christmas to be like that scene when the Grinch yells “Thanks for the Go Cart Aunt Nancy” as he giddily zooms by 125,000 homeless human beings.
Oh wait… That’s not the Grinch…
It is real life in Gavin Newsom’s California. pic.twitter.com/MVhk1ff0gD

Imagine failing your state so bad the President has to invoke federal emergency powers …

I could go on, constiunatians from all over the state slammed their irresponsible governor. I think next time the Governor request federal funds for help President Trump should strongly reconsider.
