Video Shows Gavin Newsom Needs to Phase Out an Oft-Repeated Phrase (WATCH) – Twitchy

If you’ve been paying attention, it’s obvious that California Governor Gavin Newsom doesn’t have an original thought in his head. He’s all carefully crafted phrases and expected appeals to emotion. The man’s a political android programmed to say a lot while not saying anything of genuine substance. We’re not exaggerating that the ‘man’ is programmed.

Hey Gavin, you might want to come up with a new catch phrase. This one is played out.

You also might want to see a professional to help with that projection. pic.twitter.com/tkb6kG3rbv

Ah Governor Newsome! What an amazing verbal self-portrait.

This guy is insufferable.

He’s smarmy.

One poster has a theory as to where Newsom got his oft-repeated phrase.

This dude heard this phrase at a TED Talk on Sun Tzu and he never let it go 🤣

That’s so funny because it’s probably true. 😂

It’s what the dems do. We watched Kamala try be elected President with catchphrases and quips.

Kamala Harris wasn’t a candidate; she was a collection of focus group-tested phrases.

Commenters say Newsom’s ‘weakness masquerading as strength’ mantra reminds them of Kamala’s favorite word salad quip.

Newsom’s version of “unburdened by what has been.”

Unburdened by what has been.

Marxists are lame

They’re the best at projection. They were born liars.

This is true.

Posters say that when Newsom starts throwing around words like ‘weakness’ and ‘masquerading,’ he’s really talking about himself.

This is a classic example of mirroring.

Gavin is projecting his inner feelings about himself onto Trump.

Some great projection there Gavin. You are weakness masquerading as strength.

It’s why he always looks like he’s about to cry. pic.twitter.com/FUMmMXcvid

Translation: “I’m weak”

Everything about Newsom is fake and scripted. He is the slimiest scumbag politician I have ever seen in my lifetime.

That’s a perfect assessment. The man’s Artificial Intelligence without the ‘intelligence.’
