Newsom Claims Biden Is Fit to Serve — Then Says He “Hates When Politicians Lie to You”

California Governor Gavin Newsom’s latest appearance on Meet the Press showed exactly why Americans have lost faith in Democrat leadership. 

When asked what frustrates him most about politics, Newsom said, “There is nothing I dislike more than a politician who sits there and lies to you.” 

Moments later, he defended Joe Biden’s “fitness” to serve as president through 2029—despite overwhelming evidence that Biden is no longer capable of handling the job he already lost.

Since President Trump returned to the White House, the contrast between leadership and incompetence could not be more evident. 

Trump has rebuilt the economy, strengthened border security, and reasserted America’s role on the world stage. 

Meanwhile, Democrats like Newsom continue to defend Biden’s record of weakness and confusion, pretending that his failed presidency was a golden era. 

Newsom’s attempt to rewrite history is not loyalty—it’s deception.

Newsom pointed to a 2023 Oval Office meeting with Biden as proof of the former president’s competence. 

But Americans remember what really happened: a term defined by inflation, chaos at the border, and foreign policy disasters that emboldened America’s enemies. 

Biden’s June 2024 debate was a disaster—he appeared confused, frail, and unable to complete sentences.

His blank stares, missed cues, and incoherent answers shocked viewers nationwide, confirming fears that he lacked the mental and physical capacity to lead the country. It was a defining moment of collapse.

Even Democrats privately admitted it. Yet Newsom, ever the political opportunist, continues to praise Biden to protect his own ambitions for 2028.

Mocking Elected Officials Is a Sign of a Healthy Democracy

There’s little question that President Donald Trump and his MAGA devotees can dish it out. Few things epitomize this populist movement more than its irreverence toward established institutions and its willingness to obliterate traditional standards of civility as it targets political enemies (and erstwhile friends during some internecine squabble). Trump’s social-media posts and statements are filled with invective and merciless mocking.

Trump’s schoolyard taunts rarely are sophisticated, as they frequently zero in on personal appearance. “He’s got the smallest neck I’ve ever seen. And the biggest head. We call him watermelon head. How can that big fat face stand on a neck that looked like this finger?” Trump said about Sen. Adam Schiff (D–Calif.). OK, I laughed when he called him “Adam Schifty Schiff,” but that’s only because it was so childishly stupid. That’s its appeal, I suppose.

One of Trump’s ugliest insults—dating to his first election—was when he mocked a disabled reporter by imitating his hand motions. The Wall Street Journal published a piece called, “The Art of the Insult.” We know this is how Trump operates. You can find hundreds of examples with a Google search or on his Truth Social account. Even the official White House account does this—when it’s not portraying Trump as a Kim Jong Un-style superhero.

It’s so very funny. Whenever anyone calls them out on this, Trump defenders act as if they are just so above it all. “Don’t you know the president is just trolling?” “Get a sense of humor.” “You must be suffering from TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome).” Yadda, yadda. In full disclosure, I greatly value humor and have mocked my share of politicians over the years. But I find bullying taunts to be crass and the sign of those displaying low human capital.
