Bogus Melania Trump magazine cover draws self-revealing bit of trolling from ‘No Kings’ Newsom

A bogus Vanity Fair cover featuring First Lady Melania Trump wearing a crown triggered leftists, and in a self-revealing bit of trolling, California Governor Gavin Newsom imagined himself to be a king.

The image, which has been circulated on social media, depicts the first lady with the caption “The American Queen” and was posted after reports of a staff mutiny at the Condé Nast publication over it potentially featuring Mrs. Trump, with one leftist tantrum thrower quoted as saying, “I will walk out the motherf**king door.”

Prominent MAGA influencers praised the faux cover as leftists gnashed their teeth, but Team Newsom took advantage of the opportunity to once again post a pic of the current 2028 Democrat frontrunner sporting his own royal headgear.

“AN HONOR! THANK YOU!!!” Newsom said on his Governor Newsom Press Office X account, a lie-spewing sewage pipe that has drawn raves from the demoralized ranks of the anti-Trump resistance. Newsom himself is very hands-on with the account, so the post would seem to be an insight into his thinking.

It’s the second time that the account has recently posted an image of King Gavin, who seems to have had a change of heart after declaring on July 4 that ‘We will never again allow this country and its people to be subject to a king…”

Earlier this summer, Democrats and their NGO front groups staged one of their AstroTurf national protests against President Donald J. Trump under the banner of “No Kings,” but the sentiment has clearly changed since the resistance is now coalescing around its own monarch figure.

X users slammed the hypocrisy of King Gavin and his loyal subjects.

No Kings?

I’m so confused. Just a few days ago the streets were filled with No Kings people. Now, there is a cover of a king. How do people even keep up these days…..

When they say “NO KINGS”, they really mean “NO KINGS BUT US!”

The White House described Newsom’s latest kingly propaganda as “creepy” in a statement to the Daily Mail.

“Congratulations to Gavin Newscum who has gone from weird and not funny to creepy and still not funny,” White House spox Abigail Jackson told the outlet.

The aggrieved Vanity Fair staffers never had anything to worry about because the first lady reportedly “laughed” at the idea, according to the New York Post.

“She doesn’t have time to be sitting in a photo shoot,” an unnamed “fashion source” said to be familiar with Mrs. Trump’s thinking told the paper. “Her priorities as First Lady are far more important… These people don’t deserve her anyway.”
