California Governor Gavin Newsom has reignited his ongoing feud with the Trump administration by posting a viral video that shows Vice President JD Vance’s complete transformation from Trump critic to loyal supporter. The post, shared on September 2, 2025, features a compilation of old clips where Vance harshly criticized Donald Trump between 2016 and 2017.
The video was originally shared by “Republicans against Trump” before Newsom reshared it with his own pointed commentary. The compilation shows various interviews and appearances where Vance called Trump “noxious,” a “fraud,” and said he was “leading the white working class to a very dark place.” In one clip from 2016, Vance even declared himself a “Never Trump guy” and admitted he “never liked him.”
