How Fox News' Criticism of Gavin Newsom Boosted His Financial Gains

California Governor Gavin C. Newsom has stirred unrest among fervent supporters of former President Donald J. Trump. The 57-year-old Democratic leader has taken to social media to slyly mock Trump, 79, especially utilizing the all-caps communication style characteristic of the MAGA figure. Newsom's press office on X engaged in this satirical imitation for several weeks.To escalate the jesting, Newsom's team introduced a line of MAGA-inspired merchandise. An online store launched on August 24 features items such as "Newsom Was Right About Everything" hats and "Trump Is Not Hot" tank tops.Fox News analyst Will Cain criticized this move, claiming Newsom is merely imitating others for a leftist audience. Responses to his comments reveal that many Trump supporters are missing the humor. Despite the skepticism, Newsom's merchandise reportedly generated $300,000 in sales within the first day, indicating a strong backing for his witty pushback against Trump. As Newsom's national profile grows, so does his social media ridicule of the former president.
