Politics Fox News Gavin newsom troll
These Fox News hosts played directly into Gavin Newsom’s magnificent Twitter trolling of Donald Trump and the stunning hypocrisy is simply off the scale
California Governor Gavin Newsom has been Tweeting like an unhinged maniac for the past week. He’s adopted the caps lock key, the stream of consciousness ranting, and the playground name-calling of Donald Trump to draw eyeballs to gerrymandering and a host of other issues.
And while it’s surely objectively hilarious, it also appears to be working.
Fox News took to the air recently to offer some concerns about how this type of communication appears to the general public.

Yes, this should be worrying and embarrassing. It’s almost as if no politician at any level should talk or behave like this.
Really anyone in any job. And yet we’ve normalized it so much over the last half decade that when someone new takes it out for a test drive it is exposed for what it is: the actions of a depraved mad man.
Now Fox News is finally seeing what we’re all seeing. And everyone hopped online to help point that out.

LOL, I’m starting to really think they’re so programmed in the cult they actually can’t get it.
It’s semi-disturbing, actually.

If there’s anything conservatives hate more than casual satire, it’s a whole ass mirror

He says Newsom shouldn’t do it, when the governor was only mocking Trump for doing it… then claims it’s unacceptable for a state, but fine for the president. Unreal.

That’s the entire point. The country is being run by a child.

Fox News says Newsom mocking Trump is childish. Trump built his brand on mocking rivals. The difference? This time, the punchline’s on him.

They condemn in others what they canonize in Trump.

These clowns literally can say that with a straight face acting like their God-King hasn’t been posting like that and speaking like that since 2015. Are my fellow Americans really this stupid? Are we just at the point where we live in a North Korea style state media hell hole?
