California Governor Gavin Newsom tore into President Donald Trump’s “unhinged” response to the protests in Los Angeles and suggested that two branches of government are already “lost to Trumpism.”
Newsom didn’t hold back in an interview Monday, where he accused the president of “acting recklessly” after deploying thousands of military personnel in LA in an attempt to clamp down on protests against the administration’s immigration raids. The governor, who announced Monday he is suing the Trump administration for deploying the National Guard, said that he hoped the courts “are still holding firm.”
