On a Zoom call recently, California Gov. Gavin Newsom said he witnessed shoplifting and asked a store worker why people were stealing.
Newsom didn't like the answer, and it's funny because it's true:

He asked a worker why the person steals and they blamed the Governor before looking at him twice and recognizing him.

OUCH! It's also telling how Newsom suggested that he should just go ahead and steal what he was purchasing as well.

Newsom was more offended when the store employee blamed him for the crime than the actual crime itself. pic.twitter.com/ThJ2188KLS
Newsom went full Karen and demanded to see the manager:
This is hilarious. Theft is so common in California that it happened right in front of Newsom, and when the cashier (who didn't realize it was Newsom) said they can't stop shoplifters due to the California government, Newsom got mad at her and asked to see the manager. https://t.co/dcrbzOA2zz

The governor who wants to be president someday (God help us all) blamed the clerk for giving him a reality check. Gavin needs to get out more.
The ability to shamelessly and effortlessly shift blame is a superpower that successful Democrat politicians have https://t.co/sGma5Y3gCS

They'll never blame themselves or their insane policies for anything.
And then he refused to take a photo and complained to her manager about her. Classy guy.

Yeah, Democrats really respect the working class!
@GavinNewsom it’s because of prop 47. <$950 it’s a misdemeanor and not typically investigated or prosecuted. https://t.co/ckw1RPxHzR

I wonder if @CAGovernor @GavinNewsom is aware just how extremist Democrats are in the California Legislature.

YOU built that! Stop blaming @Target and rein-in @CADem.https://t.co/qae3JdiNz7 https://t.co/bPqiCdrMlg pic.twitter.com/fDEdUDdGW6
Dems just refuse to admit the obvious, which is that their soft-on-crime policies make crime worse.
