The "patriot site" Newsom mentioned seemed to refer to his online store, the "Patriot Shop." As of Oct. 24, the signed knee pads appeared (archived) on that website with a price of $0.00 and a "sold out" label. The description of the listing read, in part, "For all your groveling to Trump needs -- now in Republican red. For the low low price of your soul."

For further reading, Snopes investigated the authenticity of an image that Newsom's press office posted of Trump with an abnormally puffy face.
