Failed California Governor Gavin Newsom launched a desperate attack on President Trump Tuesday, calling him a "punch-drunk boxer" after our America First president stepped up global tariffs to 15% following the Supreme Court's rejection of his economic agenda.

The insult comes as Trump courageously doubled down on his promise to put American workers first, implementing an initial 10% worldwide tariff on Friday before adding another 5% just one day later. While Trump fights for everyday Americans against unfair foreign competition, Newsom sits in his crumbling California mansion watching his state burn—literally and figuratively.

The Audacity of Failed Leadership

This is rich coming from a governor whose state has become a national embarrassment under his radical leftist rule. While Newsom throws schoolyard insults at the President, California suffers from:

• Rampant homelessness destroying once-beautiful cities
• Rolling blackouts despite sky-high energy costs
• Mass exodus of businesses fleeing his anti-American policies
• Crime waves turning San Francisco into a third-world hellscape

Meanwhile, President Trump is doing exactly what he promised—fighting for American manufacturing and workers who've been sold out by globalist trade deals for decades.

"Trump's tariff strategy isn't about being 'punch-drunk'—it's about being punch-READY against countries that have been ripping us off for years," said one White House insider.

America First vs. California Last

The contrast couldn't be starker. While Trump battles the Supreme Court and foreign competitors to restore American economic dominance, Newsom presides over a state where middle-class families can't afford housing and businesses flee in record numbers.

Patriots across America see through Newsom's desperate deflection tactics. Instead of fixing his own disasters, he attacks the one president willing to stand up to China, Mexico, and other countries that have been laughing at us for decades.

Who's really "punch-drunk" here—the president fighting for American workers, or the governor who's knocked out his own state with woke policies and economic incompetence?

Does anyone actually take Newsom seriously anymore? Even his own state tried to recall him!

Newsom is the one who's punch-drunk! Look at what he's done to California - homeless camps everywhere, businesses fleeing, and he has the nerve to criticize Trump?

Exactly! I moved my family out of CA last year because of his policies. Best decision we ever made.

The audacity is astounding! This is rich coming from the governor who tried to shut down the entire economy.

Don't remind me. His lockdowns nearly killed my restaurant. Trump was the one pushing to reopen.

Trump actually fought for manufacturing jobs and brought companies back to America. What has Newsom done for workers besides tax them into poverty?

Classic projection from the left. Trump's policies brought unemployment to historic lows before COVID hit. Meanwhile Newsom can't even keep the lights on in California.
