He KNOWS He's Toast: Gavin Newsom Flips OUT on Sean Hannity in Curse-Filled Post About His Racist Gaffe

As Twitchy readers know, Gavin Newsom said he's dumb and that makes him 'like Black Americans.'

Hey, Barack Obama had his own sort of obnoxious gaffe when he made fun of people with disabilities, but he was already in office when he screwed up so it didn't really hurt him.

This, however, could hurt Newsom:

And his reaction to Hannity proves he knows it:

You didn’t give a s**t about the President of the United States of America posting an ape video of President Obama or calling African nations shitholes — but you’re going to call me racist for talking about my lifelong struggle with dyslexia?

Spare me your fake f**king outrage,Sean … https://t.co/ABNZJQJLcj

He's so edgy cursing on X.

Honestly, he just comes across as pathetic, desperate, and irritated that he got caught saying the quiet part out loud.

Keep doubling down, you muppet. The fact you are the democrats best hope after getting the shit kicked out of you by DeSantis says it all.

You said it. Own it.
