Starting point is 00:00:00 All right, folks, so it's currently 3.30 in the morning on the East Coast at the time of me filming this. You're seeing this video later. But I stayed up specifically to watch Governor Gavin Newsom eviscerate Donald Trump in Davos, Switzerland at the World Economic Forum. I'm talking from start to finish. Governor Newsom was just destroying him and calling him out on every single topic. Now, Donald Trump actually tried to keep Governor Newsom off the stage. He didn't want him speaking to the press or the attendees. And let me just say without looking at these clips, you're going to see exactly why Trump doesn't want him speaking.
Starting point is 00:00:33 He really went in. So look, I'm going to play some clips for you. We'll talk about it. Make sure to subscribe down below. Drop a like on the video, comment. Let me know what you think about everything Governor Newsom said. And let's just start here with what exactly I just said, Donald Trump trying to silence Governor Newsom.
Starting point is 00:00:49 He said yesterday from his press office account in the afternoon, quote, under pressure from the White House and State Department, USA House, a church. acting as the official U.S. Pavilion is now denying entry to Governor Gavin Newsom to speak with with media after Fortune, the official media partner invited him to speak. So Fortune actually invited Governor Newsom to come out, speak to the press, and Donald Trump got the State Department to deny him, to hold him hostage. No talking to the press. It's completely in line with Donald Trump's authoritarian tendencies, and it just shows you that Governor Newsom is living in his head rent-free. Rent-free. Donald Trump's worst nightmare is when
Starting point is 00:01:28 Newsom is talking to the media getting his message out there. And that's why he hates that he's at Davos and that's why he's trying to stop him from talking to the media. And the final thing I want to show you from the press office account, I thought this was funny, is Stephen Miller, apparently, was backstage with Governor Gavin Newsom. And they said that Stephen Miller refused to make eye contact with him. And they called him a total beta. Damn right, he's a total beta. He gets on Fox News every single day and slams Gavin Newsom, slams the Democrats. But when they're in person, it doesn't even want to look at Gavin Newsom. What a coward. So anyway, let's start with this clip right here. And this is my favorite clip of everything Gavin Newsom said at the W.E.F. He was specifically talking about not being
Starting point is 00:02:11 complicit with Donald Trump's insanity, how these law firms, these businesses, these universities keep bending the knee to Donald Trump. He won't be one of those people. And what he said right here, I just really think you should hear it. So just take a lesson. How do you see those people behaving? society becomes how we behave. We are our behaviors. We're not bystanders in this world. The world we're experiencing happened on our watch. So in the relationship to your question, yeah, they're complicit in some respects to this moment.
Starting point is 00:02:40 You know, forgive me, you brought up a tweet, but part of my approach has been a little more aggressive than perhaps a lot of American politicians. I created a Patriot site. On the site, you can go. They're knee pads. that are available to purchase. The last round of NEPAD sold out, just as our law firms are selling out. Many American universities are selling out,
Starting point is 00:03:06 and yes, many corporate leaders are selling out to this administration, selling out our values, selling out our future, selling out what makes America great and breaks my heart. And people need to stand up. people need to
Starting point is 00:03:24 courage of their damn convictions we're the 250th anniversary the United States of America this year it's a 250th anniversary the best of the Roman Republic Greek democracy co-equal branches the government the rule of law popular sovereignty tell me that that reflects
Starting point is 00:03:40 the America you read about today there's no rule of law it's the rule of dawn I hope it's hoping for Europeans it's dawning on you it's not the rule of law. You don't have co-equal branches of government. You have a supine Congress.
Starting point is 00:03:56 You don't have a Speaker of the House. It doesn't exist. Popular sovereignty being challenged every single day by voter suppression, trying to rig elections. I mean, heck, Donald Trump tried to steal the election, the last election, tried to light democracy on fire, and then pardoned everyone that participated in that. Is anyone paying attention to what the hell is going on in the United States of America? So my state of mind is a little different, perhaps. than many others. I won't be complicit at this moment. I won't. I can't look my kids in the eyes. And so I'm just blessed that I get to represent a state that's larger than the size of 21 U.S. states combined. Where 27% of us are foreign-born, we practice paroleism. That's a word you haven't
Starting point is 00:04:42 heard in America any year, where we dominate in every critical category in terms of energy and daring and entrepreneurialism and innovation. Look, give me a lot. Give me a lot of, a category in California outperforms, fourth largest economy in the world. And so we can punch above our weight. We can come here with formal authority and a little moral authority. And I tell you, we need a little moral authority. See, you know, in this moment in time with what Gavin Newsom is doing in Davos, I view him as the American leader on the world stage. Really, Donald Trump does not represent us. Doesn't represent me, doesn't represent you. Gavin Newsom is the true American leader on the world stage who can speak to our values, speak to who we are as a country, our foundation, and do it
Starting point is 00:05:25 in a way where he doesn't sound insane. I mean, every time Donald Trump speaks, it's rambling, it's the weave, it's nonsense, it's embarrassing as an American to watch the president of the United States behave that way on the world stage. And what I really appreciate about Gavin Newsom and his answer is not only is he talking about not being complicit, not bending the knee to Donald Trump, but he's doing two main things. Number one, he's attacking Donald Trump, slamming him, calling out the insanity, calling out the failures, calling out the destruction of the United States that we're collectively witnessing right now in real time. But he also talked about the achievements of his state, democratic policies and how we make people's lives better. We can do two things at once.
Starting point is 00:06:08 We can walk and chew gum. We can slam Donald Trump, call out the insanity while also talking up ourselves. as he just said, you know, it's the fourth largest economy in the world. More Fortune 500 companies in California than any state in the country. You know, more Nobel laureates in the state of California than any other state in the country. I mean, those are good things. And he did both. We can talk positively about Democrats and attack Donald Trump, and I think he did it perfectly there.
Starting point is 00:06:33 The next clip I want to show you is him talking about the knee pads. We got to bring up this clip. It's so funny. Him talking about the knee pads and how maybe he has to start sending them to some Republicans and how the bending of the knee to Donald Trump really is just shameful. Watch. We can read. Look, he's an invasive species, Donald Trump.
Starting point is 00:06:51 He's not. He is. He took over the Republican Party. They're just, I mean, he's got, you know, a few of them. Lindsey Graham, I mean, speaking of the knee pads. I'm sorry. This is tough stuff. It's tough stuff.
Starting point is 00:07:10 I don't recognize these people any longer. I used to respect Lindsay. I mean, Lindsay, you think what I'm saying about Trump's tough. How about what Lindsey Graham said about Trump? How about the Secretary of State Marco Rubio? Do you think? I mean, this is, these are the same people. And this is why we, for things to change, we need to change.
Starting point is 00:07:30 And that's why I'm changing my approach. And again, grateful you all took the time. I mean, I suppose do you think that's great. I mean, yeah, call out these Republicans. Call out Lindsey Graham, Marco Rubio. are so spineless. They are so spineless. You know, they said very tough things against Donald Trump back in 2016. And now they're serving in his administration or in the case of Lindsey Graham. They're sucking up to Donald Trump on a daily basis. It's not like Donald Trump got elected
Starting point is 00:07:59 in 2016. They united around him because he's the president. He's the Republican president. And then they came to realize that he's crazy. They didn't do just that. They did that. And they're still standing by Donald Trump's side. They deserve. some Governor Gavin Newsom knee pads sent right to their door, right to their Senate office, their house office, wherever they are, the State Department, send some knee pads for the way they've sold out America in favor of Donald Trump. It's disgraceful.
Starting point is 00:08:26 And the final clip I want to show you is Governor Gavin Newsom talking about his tweets and how Fox News has raged at how he's combated Donald Trump, but they never talk about Trump, just why. Is that kind of discourse from you, from them, good for America? Oh, it's deeply unbecoming. Come on. It's not what we should be doing. But you've got to point out the absurdity.
Starting point is 00:08:45 You've got to put a mirror up to this. This is madness. You see what he's saying about European leaders, you talking down to people, talking past people. I mean, look, the comments he made yesterday we're not even discussing because you're discussing all the other comments about windmills or whatever else that was happening.
Starting point is 00:09:03 He talked about Somalia's community. This is not normal. It's a deviation of normalcy. We've got to call it out. So I put a mirror up to Trump and Trump. Trumpism, in all caps. And it was ironic because Pravda, Fox News in America, others, they got offended by it.
Starting point is 00:09:19 They said, well, where's his mother to wash his mouth out with soap? I said, where the hell have you been? You've never said a word about Trump dressing up, it's the Pope, tweeting out and cosplaying on the world stage. And so look, the Treasury of Secretary talked about a Barbie doll. It was as if he was reading a diary and had just broken up with someone. I mean, that was the Secretary of Treasury. using valuable time yesterday on the world stage.
Starting point is 00:09:45 Some sexual, thank you for not sharing that on the official White House account. We're deeply in their head. I think the affordability agenda appears to be I'm living rent-free in the Trump's head, Trump administration's head. I like that line. Put it on a t-shirt. The affordability agenda is getting to them. It's, you know, Gavin Newsom and other Democrats living in Donald Trump's head, rent-free.
Starting point is 00:10:08 Rent-free. Yeah, I mean, seriously, you know, the double-stander. is remarkable. The way that Donald Trump has graded on a heavy curve is disgraceful. Fox News will attack him for putting out some funny tweets mocking Donald Trump using his style of tweeting. And then they go after Gavin Newsom, but not Donald Trump who's been behaving this way for 10 years. I mean, it's just astonishing. And especially if you look at the context of what Gavin News is saying, you know, Fox News capitulating, Lindsey Graham, the senators, the businesses, the university, the law firms, all of these right-wing institutions capitulating.
Starting point is 00:10:42 the knee. Complicit. Complicit in Donald Trump's insanity and what he does on a daily basis. So look, I will leave the video there. Sorry, my hair is bothering the hell out of me right now. I apologize. I'll leave the video there. I think it was worth it staying up to hear from Governor Gavin Newsom.
