Gavin Newsom Just Absolutely Dragged Trump's Military Parade, And Trump's Really, Really Not Gonna Like It

Gavin Newsom gave his thoughts about the parade on Thursday and they're going viral:




"It's a vulgar display. It's the kind of thing you see with Kim Jong-un, you see it with Putin, you see with dictators around the world that are weak and just want to demonstrate strength. Weakness masquerading as strength. To fete the dear leader on his birthday? What an embarrassment." he said. "Honestly, that's about as small as it gets."

"How weak, how weak do you have to be to commandeer the military to fete you on your birthday in a vulgar display of weakness? That's Donald Trump."

As with just about everything Newsom has said this week, people are loving it: "Absolutely 100% correct," this person commented.
