California Governor Gavin Newsom is usually basing Trump whenever you see him in the news. He is up there with Maxine Waters and Joy Behar. So surprisingly during his last interview with “The View” host, he actually disagreed with the staunch Trump hater and instead praised Trump. I bet that threw her off.
“Governor, it’s no secret that you’ve had a combative relationship with Trump in the past, but lately, you’ve been praising him for the help he’s giving,” The View” host Joy Behar started. “Of course, you have to, because look at how he treats governors who don’t kiss the ring. The governor of Washington, the governor of Michigan, he said they were not appreciative and told Mike Pence, ‘Don’t call them back.’ Ya know, do you feel like you have to feed this guy’s ego to get the respirators, to get the PPEs? Is that what’s going on?”
“Let me just acknowledge the frame of your question,” he replied. “We’re involved in over 68 lawsuits with the Trump administration, and so there’s no question we have had our differences of opinion on many issues, but I just want to remind you that you and many others that maybe are not aware of this. We have been at this since late January. California got a head start in many respects, where no one was really paying much attention. We started working with the administration directly to get these repatriated flights from mainland China into the state of California. Many states turned their back on those flights and those repatriation missions. California embraced them.”
“We also had that Grand Princess, that large cruise ship, where we worked very collaboratively with the federal government and developed strong relationships of trust with emergency planning and how we can bring those passengers back into our diverse communities and all across the rest of the country,” Newsom continued. “As a consequence of that, our relationship began earlier than most. And so from that perspective, all I can say is that, from my perspective, the relationship has been strong. I’m not doing it to kiss the ring — I’m not doing it in a way, you know, I’m just being forthright with the president. He returns calls, he reaches out, he’s been proactive.”
“We got that Mercy ship down here in Los Angeles. That was directly because he sent it down here. Two thousand medical units came to the state of California, these FMS, these field medical stations. That’s been very, very helpful, and to the extent, we’re going to need more, and I’ll let you know in a few weeks if that relationship continues,” Newsom concluded.

It’s great that Newsom can put aside his personal feelings and see that Trump is doing his best to aid our country in the fight against this pandemic. It seems many libs are still holding strong to their Trump hate regardless of how well he handles this situation. Maybe this could be Newsom turning a new leaf… Well, regardless it was good TV to watch Behar be thrown off.
