Newsom’s Davos jab: kneepads and a pointed dig at Trump feud
At Davos, California Gov. Gavin Newsom teased Donald Trump with a “kneepads” gag and called the rancorous feud between them “deeply unbecoming,” portraying his quip as a mirror to Trump’s antics. He cited crude remarks about him from Trump aides, said Trump’s strength comes from detecting weakness, and claimed the White House is “in their head” as they spar over issues like affordability, while press access and media interactions were hotly contested amid the broader back-and-forth.
