Former President Donald Trump has once again taken aim at California Governor Gavin Newsom, referring to him as "Newscum" during a recent interview with Bloomberg News. Trump has used this nickname multiple times in the past, saying that it encapsulates his view of the governor's leadership.
In the interview, Trump criticised a recent bill signed by Newsom, which he claims prevents voters from being asked for identification. "What is our country coming to?" Trump asked. "You cannot ask a person for voter ID when they vote, What is our country coming to?" he questioned.
The audience responded positively to Trump's remarks, erupting in laughter and applause.
In a previous appearance on the Flagrant podcast, Trump reiterated his disapproval of Newsom, calling him "terrible" and expressing disdain for the governor’s policies. He also threatened to withhold federal aid for wildfire relief unless Newsom altered regulations protecting the endangered smelt fish, which he claimed limited water resources in California.
Throughout the Bloomberg interview, Trump diverted the conversation to his usual talking points, including immigration and transgender issues, often drawing laughter and applause from the audience. His remarks on Newsom, however, garnered particular attention, reflecting his ongoing feud with the California governor.
While addressing a supportive audience at the Economic Club of Chicago, Trump discussed broader economic policies, particularly his stance on tariffs. He described tariffs as his "favourite word," arguing they could be a powerful tool for generating revenue and protecting American industries. However, mainstream economists have warned that such measures could lead to increased costs for consumers.
