Gavin Newsom’s Trump Smackdown With Obama Is Pure Political Theater

California Governor Gavin Newsom quickly seized the moment, teaming up with Barack Obama in a biting viral video that transformed a challenging night for Republicans into a public embarrassment for Donald Trump. As election results revealed significant Democratic victories from New York to California, Newsom shared a WWE-inspired parody meme on X—featuring him and Obama as tag-team partners delivering a dramatic blow to Trump. The video swiftly gained traction online.“Now that’s what we call a takedown,” Newsom quipped, displaying footage of Obama delivering a high-kick to Trump, following Newsom's fierce body slam. Amidst Democrats’ victories, including a pivotal win in Mississippi, Newsom was relentless, labeling Trump as the most historically unpopular president in modern times.With the passage of Proposition 50, California Democrats gained the authority to potentially secure five additional House seats, a strategic maneuver reminiscent of Republican tactics employed in Texas. Overall, the night painted a hopeful picture for blue-leaning states, igniting renewed momentum among Democratic candidates.
