California Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom embarrassingly tried to take a page out of President Donald Trump's playbook, but got completely destroyed by actor and Palisades fire victim Spencer Pratt.
In a post from Newsom, not his high school press tweet team, the Governor wrote a post on X using all caps, trying to replicate one of Trump's signature styles for his social media posts. The post included a link to a website where people could purchase a red MAGA-style looking hat with a message that read, "Newsom was right about everything."
The post read:
"I'M REALLY GOOD AT PREDICTING THINGS. DURING THE CAMPAIGN THEY HAD A HAT -- A BEST SELLING HAT -- "NEWSOM WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING." AND I DON'T SAY THAT IN A BRAGGADOCIOS WAY, BUT IT'S TRUE. I'VE BEEN RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING."

In response, "The Hills" star and Pacific Palisades resident reacted to the post, wanting to remind everyone of the loss their community experienced in the Palisades and Altadena fires that hit Southern California earlier this year, with a death toll that rose to 30.
He also pointed out Newsom's failures prior to the disaster, like slashing funds to fight wildfires, and failure to have full water storage to fight blazes, all of which made things so much worse.
so you’re saying you meant to burn 12 senior citizens alive with your criminal negligence? https://t.co/3Z9lIL2WDB

"So you're saying you meant to burn 12 senior citizens alive with your criminal negligence?" Pratt's response to Newsom read.
Reading through other reactions to the governor's post was almost just as brutal. Here are a few that stood out.
"Was he right about the water supply?" the post read. Or the homeless problem? Or the CA budget? [GOOD] [sic] LORD people need to wake up to his failures."
Hey Newsome, your flawless streak of being right about everything must be absolutely draining! 🙄 Solved the homeless crisis yet, or too busy jacking up taxes and gas prices to the stratosphere? Lockdowns nailed, surplus turned deficit like magic, and that missing fire fund…

Hey Newsome [sic], your flawless streak of being right about everything must be absolutely draining! Solved the homeless crisis yet, or too busy jacking up taxes and gas prices to the stratosphere? Lockdowns nailed, surplus turned deficit like magic, and that missing fire fund money, poof! Care to share your divine genius with us mortals?
Lol. You certainly weren’t right about refinery closures. Or illegal alien health care. Or vagrants. Or the stupid high speed rail. Or fire prevention. Or covid response.

Profanity alert:
Newsom is so right that he’s turned CA into a sh*tshow! We can’t afford insurance (if we can even get it). We all know someone who has lost a home to CA wildfires. We dread hot days because we don’t know if our power will stay on. Our electric, gas, license fees, registrations…

Newsom is so right that he's turned CA into a sh*tshow! We can't afford insurance (if we can even get it). We all know someone who has lost a home to CA wildfires. We dread hot days because we don't know if our power will stay on. Our electric, gas, license fees, registrations, and tolls keep increasing. And any check of Nextdoor will have even the liberals complaining about crime in the suburbs.
As a resident of the once-Golden State, the criticism of Newsom from the various folks on social media is right on target. From Newsom's insane authoritarian rule during the COVID-19 pandemic, making up his own rules and keeping our state locked down and schools closed longer than pretty much anyone else, to his massively cutting millions of dollars in funds to fight wildfires, this so-called leader is such a disgrace.
