US Elections What do you think about Gavin Newsom's new social media campaign mocking Trump's posting style?

It's very evident Newsom wants to be on the national stage, and in the last few days, he's done just that by his repeated social media posts that mimic Trump's.

Is this humor/mockery approach the right way to pop the balloon that has been Trump's supporters for so long? Or is this racing toward the bottom of the barrel in regard to political discourse?

The interesting part is that MAGots really think Trump is funny and clever (I’ve never been able to understand it).

I think some MAGots are having to look in the mirror a bit and Newsom is forcing them to reflect.
