California Governor Newsom criticized Trump for Davos visit

US President Donald Trump has criticized California Governor Gavin Newsom for traveling to the World Economic Forum in Davos, calling him a "lame duck" and accusing him of shaming the country. He announced this on January 22 in his Truth Social network.

"He made a fool of himself, and everyone, including his staff, knows it!" Trump added.

According to the American leader, Newsom should not have participated in the summit, demanding the attention of foreign leaders and casting a shadow on the United States. The governor of California is among the likely Democratic candidates for the 2028 presidential election, which has previously provoked sharp comments from Trump.
