If regular people have not yet got the joke, obviously Newsom needs to keep going
until they get it.

It is a valuable strategy but will take time for the regular guy to absorb it all.

The sophisticated consumer may be bored with it, but they are not the target audience.

Hyperbole humor appears to be a way to get people's attention.
A very clever way to do so.
