California Gov. Gavin Newsom roasted President Donald Trump and some of his top officials during his trip to the World Economic Forum in Switzerland.
The presumed Democratic 2028 presidential contender needled White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller online after he said the architect of Trump’s controversial mass deportation campaign deliberately avoided him while they were backstage in Davos, reported The Daily Beast.
“Stephen Miller refused to even make eye contact with @CAGovernor Gavin Newsom backstage at Davos,” Newsom’s press office posted on X. “Total beta!”
Newsom’s team continued taunting Miller, whose own relatives have denounced his role in the nationwide immigration crackdown, by sharing an image of Border Patrol official Greg Bovino wearing a long black coat the governor had previously described as “Nazi-coded.”
“Hey, Stephen — when are you going to start wearing one of Greg’s coats?” Newsom’s team posted.
A spokesperson for Newsom kept up the jibes when asked for comment on the posts mocking Miller.
“They were backstage at the same time [and] a bunch of senior Trump officials were fangirling the Governor and went out of their way to say hi to their Daddy — but Stephen Miller clocked the Governor and scurried off like the little ghoul cuck he is,” Newsom’s spokesperson said, and then jabbed Miller’s wife. “Honestly, we almost feel bad for Katie.”
Trump had taken potshots at Newsom during his meandering 70-minute speech to world leaders, griping that he “had” a great relationship with the governor during fires that ravaged the Pacific Palisades a year ago but said they had since “had some problems,” and Newsom later ripped the address as “remarkably boring.”
“I didn’t hear ‘New-scum,’ I heard ‘green scam,’ but I mean, come on, that’s – it was remarkably boring,” Newsom said. “It was remarkably insignificant. He was never going to invade Greenland. It was never real, so that was always a fade, and so he says, well, we should negotiate. Well, everybody here has been willing to negotiate for a year, so it had ‘fire and fury’ signifying absolutely nothing.”
“Even by Trump’s standards, I was rather curious,”” he added, “and there were boorish parts of it, but those were not even that consequential, including name-checking people he likes, people he didn’t like. Honestly, I was a little disappointed. I was a little nonplussed.”
