This might come across as a tad hyperbolic, but it seems to me that you (third-person, that is) would have to be living under a rock somewhere if you don't know that iconic rapper Nicki Minaj is not exactly the president of the California Governor Gavin Newsom Fan Club.
Or, as Minaj prefers to call the embattled left-wing governor — who couldn't be more obvious that he plans to run for the 2028 Democrat presidential nomination — "Gavvy pooh."
"Gavvy pooh." That might be better than "Hair Gel." Either way, hoo-boy, does it fit.
Anyway, Minaj fired up X on Friday and delivered an old-style, behind-the-woodshed, beatdown to Newsom that couldn't have captured the self-admiring governor in a more accurate light.
Minaj began with a short, but devastating blast:
Imagine being the guy running on wanting to see trans kids. Haha. Not even a trans ADULT would run on that. Normal adults wake up & think they want to see HEALTHY, SAFE, HAPPY kids.
Not Gav
The Gav Nots
Send in the next guy, I’m bored.
Minaj's warranted blast was in reference to Newsom's pandering, yet absurd statement, "I want to see trans kids," during a recent interview with The New York Times.
Incidentally, what, exactly, in Newsom's mind made him think that gushing about seeing "trans kids" would win support for a future run beyond what he already has locked down tighter than Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker's belt?
Fresh off her powerful United Nations appearance calling out violence against Christians, Minaj's first post (above) no doubt caught the attention of Newsom, himself. As she warned about what she perceives as the dangers of a Newsom presidency, she didn't mince words.
Six minutes after her first post, she launched her second assault against Hair Gel — er — Gavvy pooh:
Gavin is the cute boy who got everything handed to him b/c of how cute & sexy & hot & smoking he was. Oohhh look @‘m. Sitting there in that suit with the sneakers on. He thinks he’s Tom Cruise only difference is, his next mission IS impossible. He should get another leading role.
Ouch.
But then again, who doesn't know that Gavin Newsom thinks he's God's gift to America — heck, make that the planet — like nobody's business? Thing is, the closer we get to the 2028 election, the more Newsom flip-flops like a stack of pancakes at Cracker Barrel. The guy's suits are awesome — but they're also empty. Put simply, Gavin's top priority is Gavin.

Minaj ended her attack — for now — with this beauty:
Oh Gavvy pooh, it only gets worse from here for you, buddy.
It’s the end of the road for you, my love.
Get on the nearest jet ski & let that beautiful hair blow in the wind.
It will make you happier than this race that you will not win. Enjoy life. Peace.
Truth to perceived power? Particularly the "this race that you will not win" part.
Oh Gavvy pooh, it only gets worse from here for you, buddy.

The Bottom Line:
While one may or may not be a fan of Nicki Minaj, her music, or any of her past views or behavior, she not only appears to be genuine in her Christian faith; she's also not afraid to face the wrath of the Left as she continues to speak out in defense of Christians and against organizational injustice.
Come to think of it, Gavin Newsom's face could be on the cover of Organizational Injustice Monthly.
