In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), California Governor Gavin Newsom declared he is "ready to fight" Donald Trump to defend California.
This statement follows Trump’s landslide victory over Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election.
With Trump set to assume office in early January, many see Newsom’s comments as overly confrontational.
At a time when the nation needs unity and healing, critics argue that Newsom’s remarks—similar to those of New York Governor Kathy Hochul, who recently opposed Trump—only deepen national divisions.
