Gavin Vs. Trump: Who Wrote The Baby Stairs Saga?

California Gov. Gavin Newsom has turned trolling Trump into an art form by adopting the ex-president's ALL-CAPS tweet style to throw shade on redistricting battles. He proudly said, 'I'M JUST FOLLOWING HIS EXAMPLE,' while mocking Trump's 'tiny hands' and 'baby stairs' on Air Force One. Newsom's press office signs off with 'GCN,' a cheeky riff on Trump's DJT, proving politics now involves as much Twitter roast as policy. As Newsom warned, 'STAND DOWN NOW OR CALIFORNIA WILL COUNTER-STRIKE (LEGALLY!)' — this isn’t just a fight for maps, it’s a meme war.
