Not building a high speed rail system has given California Gov. Gavin Newsom some free time to travel around the country in an effort to set the stage for his 2028 presidential campaign.
The scene during one of Greasy Gavin's appearances in South Carolina has caused his online cheerleading squad to do their thing and hope nobody actually looks at the video.
Huge crowd for Governor Gavin Newsom in South Carolina as he campaigns for Democrats. This should terrify Trump and MAGA. pic.twitter.com/ntQmEPEBNu

Sorry, but HAHAHAHAHA!
🤣 LMFAO!! Gavin Newsom drew this "massive" crowd in South Carolina and his team is now saying it's a sign "rural, red" areas are flipping against Donald Trump

This is their "massive" crowd? Maybe 100 people are in this frame, MAX 😭
Gavin is running for president…
That video certainly isn't "proof" of anything other than Newsom's online supporters really hope everybody's stupid.

But Newsom can fill up the back room of a Denny's and that should really terrify Republicans.
