California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) knocked President Trump’s weight Tuesday after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth declared he no longer wanted to see “fat generals” in the military.

“I guess the Commander in Chief needs to go!” Newsom said in a post on the social platform X, responding to a clip of Hegseth’s speech at Quantico, Va.

The post included an unflattering photo of the president from a campaign stop last October at McDonald’s.

A subsequent post from the governor’s press office account took another jab at the president’s weight, this time including an AI-generated photo of Trump holding two McDonald’s Big Mac cheeseburgers as drones deliver bags of fast food to the president, who is uncharacteristically wearing a gray t-shirt.

“IT’S COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE TO SEE A FAT COMMANDER IN CHIEF IN THE HALLS OF THE WHITE HOUSE!” the post read.

1. FAIR IS FAIR

Trump has inexplicably mocked other people's weight.

2. And just about every other challenging difficulty I can come up with.

8. I just watched Meidas Touch and learned that CA is the 4th largest economy in the world!

I thought it was the 6th. Meidas showed all of Newsom's fantastic trolling of Fat Donnie. I wonder who is on his team producing these videos to piss tRump off. Regardless, I applaud them!!!!!!

10. CA rose from 5th to 4th under Newsom. nt

12. Woohoo!

Thank Dog I live here. Maybe he'll do something to save the ACA for the state of CA. Is he allowed to do that? Is it a Fed thing as opposed to a State thing?

16. zI am so happy my daughter and her family lives in CA! In fact, all my family lives in blue states; New York and Mass.

I DO have one granddaughter in Austin, TX, but she is trying to turn the state BLUE and good on her!

19. California supplements the federal ACA subsidies with Medi-Cal subsidies for low income people.

That is why my brother gets his health coverage for free under Covered California. He is very low income. He pays zero out of pocket for doctor visits, hospital visits, and prescriptions.

20. I'm borderline...

Not quite low enough of an income to qualify for anything except ACA with subsidies and tax credits as a CA resident. It's VERY expensive to live in Southern CA. They want to bankrupt then kill us in that order. I know it!

9. I cry "Foul". Trump is only 229# and that's pretty good for

a guy who towers over others at 6'4"

[Iggo]

14. If he's six-four, he's definitely pushing three bills.

[Bluetus]

17. Not on the moon.

On the Moon, Trump is only 50#, and he can dunk on a 15' rim.

Let's send him there.

[Iggo]

18. Let's everybody tell him there's no way he can do it.

11. Why do I love this guy?? Oh, right, he gawd damn nails it.

13. Ketchup painting the walls!

If he hasn't pitched a bitch, he will.

15. He set the rules....from the top down.
