Newsom's MAGA Hat Clone: Who Wore It More Overconfidently?
California Gov. Gavin Newsom has joyfully joined the merch war by launching his own 'PATRIOT SHOP,' parodying former President Trump's trademark swag. Mimicking Trump's bold claim, Newsom tweeted urging supporters to snag a red cap screaming 'NEWSOM WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING!' â because, as the FAQ cheerfully claims, 'Humility is overrated.' The store also offers $100 Bibles 'Union Printed and Made-In-USA' that seemed fast to sell out, rivaling Trumpâs Bible hustle which reportedly generated royalties but no campaign cash. Meanwhile, Newsomâs tank tops mock Trumpâs famous zingers with 'TRUMP IS NOT HOT,' proving red hats are the new battlefield in the high-stakes redistricting war.

Nothing says political maturity like competing for who can sell the gaudiest 'I was right' red hats. Democracy powered by merch capitalism at its finest, folks. Next up: scented candles?
If political agendas came with buttons and hats, we'd have peace by now. Newsom just RSVP'd with a $100 Bible and a hot-take trucker cap.
When your campaign strategy revolves around ironic merch battles, you might wanna rethink the giant neon sign that says 'Help! We're Deflecting!'
