Gavin Newsom has issued an awkward statement about the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooter — hours after mocking Trump’s appearance at the event.
Ahead of the banquet, the California governor’s press office decided to use the opportunity to make fun of the president.
“Good luck to ‘Little D’ tonight at the WHCD dinner,” Newsom’s team said in all caps, attributing the statement to “Governor GCN”. “Glad he is finally seeing a ‘mentalist.’ Long overdue!”
GOOD LUCK TO “LITTLE D” TONIGHT AT THE WHCA DINNER. GLAD HE IS FINALLY SEEING A “MENTALIST.” LONG OVERDUE! ONCE THE PRESIDENT'S MENTAL PROBLEMS ARE FIXED, "OZ" SHOULD WORK MIRACLES ON THE LOSERS AT THE FOX NEWS TABLE! — Governor GCN
The mentalist in referencewas Oz Pearlman, who was seen in video performing one of his viral mind readings for Trump moments before gunshots were fired.
Newsom’s press account went on to suggest that Pearlman “should work miracles” for other attendees.
The governor did not attend the dinner but was in DC this weekend. He was spotted atvarious eventsover the weekend and wasmaking his way to an alternative new media eventhosted by Substack.
After shots were fired at the dinner and a suspect was detained, the governor changed his tune on the event.
“Relieved everyone at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner is safe tonight based on initial reports,” Newsom said from his official X account. “A free press is foundational to our country. Violence is never acceptable.”
