Gavin Newsom goes viral at European forum with world leaders - Brian Tyler Cohen [View all]



Gavin Newsom, urges world leaders—particularly Europeans—to stop appeasing Trump and instead respond with strength and unity. He argues that Trump is not a traditional leader but a "bully" who only respects power, and that appeasement only makes him more aggressive.

Newsom emphasizes that Trump is "unmed," "unhinged," and "lawless," and that the only effective response is to impose leverage through economic and financial tools. He warns that continued weakness will empower adversaries like China and Russia, ultimately harming the United States. The message stresses urgency, calling for immediate collective action to counter Trump's destabilizing influence, even if it means sacrificing short-term comfort.
