California gubernatorial candidate Gavin Newsom compares Trump to Pennywise, a terrifying clown
At a raucous rally in Las Vegas, Trump referred to California Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom (D), who’s running for governor, during a rant about Democrats and illegal immigration.
“Democrats want to give welfare and free health care to illegal aliens,” Trump said. “How about this clown in California who’s running for governor? He wants open borders, and then he wants to give them health care, education, everything.”
Newsom shot back in a tweet that began, “lol, hi @realDonaldTrump.” “Interesting description coming from the guy who is literally locking up kids like Pennywise,” he wrote, referring to Trump’s zero-tolerance policy at the border that led to migrant family separations.
Pennywise is the terrifying clown in Stephen King’s “It” who preys upon the children of Derry, Maine, roughly every 27 years. Newsom attached a video clip of Trump calling him a clown to his tweet.
