California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) has clapped again at podcaster Joe Rogan for slamming him as a “bullshit artist” who “ruined” Los Angeles and the state of California.
On Wednesday’s episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Rogan mentioned the potential Democratic contenders for the 2028 presidential election with visitor Jack Carr, a former Navy SEAL.
Mentioning former Vice President Kamala Harris and former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, Rogan then introduced up the concept of a Newsom presidency.
Rogan informed Carr that the left-wing politicians “don’t have any faith” in Newsom.
“Apparently, they don’t have any faith in Gavin Newsom, which is kind of funny because he wants to be president so bad,” Rogan mentioned.
Rogan, who used to reside in California, then shared his perspective on Newsom’s influence on Los Angeles and the remainder of the state.
“You can’t ruin a city and then go on to ruin a state and say, ‘Guys, that was just practice. Once I get it as a president, I’m going to fix it. Fix it all,’” he mentioned.
Calling it “so crazy,” Carr then puffed up Newsom as being “so smooth” and a “great politician,” to which Rogan disagreed vehemently.
“No. I think he’s terrible… there’s no one who’s good who’s competing against him. There’s no sincerity… I mean, he’s a good bullshit artist,” mentioned Rogan, who endorsed Newsom nemesis Donald Trump within the 2024 election.
He then alleged that “everybody’s leaving” California due to Newsom’s “horrible shit.”
“The things that he says when he gets confronted: ‘We have the highest this and the highest that.’ Like everybody’s leaving! You have the highest unemployment,” Rogan mentioned. “You have the highest homelessness.”
He added, “Money’s missing. You killed Hollywood. Like Hollywood doesn’t exist anymore. It’s literally gone. Mandated vaccines for kids that didn’t need them. You guys, he did horrible shit.”
Newsom, who has emerged in a ballot as a prime Democratic candidate for the 2028 presidential nomination, fired again at Rogan’s remarks in an X submit.
“Joe Rogan is too [chicken emoji] to have me on his show and expose his listeners to the truth, so I’ll put it here,” the California governor wrote.
He then fought in opposition to Rogan’s claims by rattling off among the state’s financial wins, which embody being “4th largest economy in the world and #1 in farming.”
“Invite me on any time,” he added, with a smiley face emoji.
Rogan has but to reply to Newsom. Reps for Rogan and Newsom’s workplace didn’t instantly reply to HuffPost’s request for remark.
