Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) lashed out at world leaders who were groveling to President Donald Trump at the World Economic Forum in Davos.
During a Tuesday interview with Sky News, Newsom faced a question about how world leaders should handle Trump’s effort to acquire Greenland.
“Yeah, it’s time to buck up. It’s time to get serious and stop being complicit,” Newsom said. “You know, it’s, I’ve seen this in the United States, the supine Congress, playing both sides,”
“But when you say standing tall, what do you mean?” the reporter asked.
“Just I can’t take this complicity,” the governor replied. “People rolling over. I should have brought a bunch of knee pads for all the world leaders. I mean, handing out crowns and handing, I mean, this is pathetic.”
“Nobel Prizes, they are being given away. I mean, it’s just pathetic,” he continued. “And I hope people understand how pathetic they look on the world stage. I mean, at least from an American perspective, it’s embarrassing.”
