Governor Newsom’s Office Adopts Trump’s Social Media Tactics in Political Feud
The office of California Governor Gavin Newsom has launched a social media offensive against former President Donald Trump, utilizing a communication style strikingly similar to his own.
Recent posts on X from Newsom’s team directly emulate the former president’s signature online presence.
These messages ridicule Trump’s meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin and confront his position on political redistricting.
Posts Mimic Trump’s Signature Online Voice
The social media posts, published in recent days, are written entirely in capital letters and employ nicknames, a hallmark of Trump’s posts on platforms like Truth Social.
This strategy was used to lampoon a meeting held between Trump and Putin in Alaska.
The content and tone of the messages from Newsom’s “White House Rapid Response” team are designed to satirize the exaggerated claims frequently made by the former president.
By adopting this distinctive approach, the governor’s office aims to use his opponent’s well-known communication style against him.
Redistricting Battle at Core of Conflict
This social media campaign is directly tied to a contentious political dispute over redistricting efforts in Texas, which have received Trump’s support.
Governor Newsom is actively promoting a counter-plan to what he has characterized as a partisan scheme.
The posts on X serve as a public platform to criticize Trump’s alignment with Texas Republicans while simultaneously highlighting Newsom’s alternative approach.
Newsom has indicated he may pursue a ballot measure in California to further his redistricting objectives.
The targeted messaging from his office frames the issue as a direct confrontation between his administration’s policies and the political agenda supported by Trump and the MAGA movement.
