The ongoing feud between President Donald Trump and California Gov. Gavin Newsom flared up once again Sunday — sparked by afresh roundof social media barbs — including an image of a zombie Gov.
Trump grabbed attention bysharing an imageof a mock California license plate reading “NEW-SCM,” featuring Newsom in the middle depicted in a zombie-like state.
The post racked up more than 135,000 views after Newsom’s press office reposted the dig and wrote, “Even a Zombie Newscum still looks healthier than our current President. #PrayersforGrandpa.”
Trump’s jab came in response to Newsom’s ownsocial media swipeearlier that day, when the governor’s press office posted an image of Trump flanked by security alongside what appeared to be an alien figure in chains.
“The President of the United States just posted this. Do you think he’s lost it?” the caption read.
The escalating online spat is just the latest in a long-runningwar of wordsbetween the two political heavyweights.
Back in January, Trump blasted Newsom as a “Lame Duck” making a “mockery of himself” on the world stage during the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.
Trump accused Newsom of prioritizing international attention while California continued to battle crime, drought, and wildfire devastation.
“He should finish his monstrously ‘over budget and behind schedule’ Railroad, from San Francisco to L.A., one of the Greatest Public Disasters in History, and focus on stopping Crime in the streets of California Cities — Then finish out his term, and GO HOME!” Trump wrote at the time.
The White House alsopreviously toldThe California Post that Newsom should “stop undermining the United States on the world stage” and focus on fixing his “broken” home state.
