Gavin Newsom's Funny Karoline Leavitt Nickname Causes Donald Trump To Jab Back

Following days of observing California Governor Gavin Newsom’s adept social media mockery, Donald Trump finally retaliated by resurrecting an old nickname for Newsom. It was not the critiques of Newsom’s policies that provoked Trump but rather the governor's choice to involve White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, prompting a particularly clever jab.The rivalry has escalated gradually, with Newsom adopting Trump’s trademark all-caps style for his jests, echoing Trump’s familiar tactics of excessive capitalization and grandiose declarations. For instance, Newsom’s office mocked Trump in a fashion reminiscent of his own posts.Trump, renowned for coining disparaging nicknames, recently labeled Newsom as "Newscum" during a campaign speech, criticizing his governance. This latest exchange highlights a noteworthy shift in dynamics, with social media commentators quick to point out Trump's visible agitation, suggesting he struggles to endure the same tactics he often employs. In a fitting response, Newsom succinctly quipped, “Triggered?” underscoring the effectiveness of his mocking strategy in this ongoing political tussle.
