Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) bristled at suggestions former President Donald Trump could successfully appeal to blue-collar voters amid the United Auto Workers strike and criticism of President Joe Biden's electric vehicle policies.
"This is all performance," Newson told reporters on Monday."Look at the record, look at Trump. It's not assertion — this is proof points of what the Trump presidency did to manufacturing, what they did to the automobile industry.
"So this is purely performative. It's a similar version [of] just trying to get some attention like he did on Tucker Carlson, trying to deflect against the debate," Newsom said of Trump during a Democratic National Committee pre-debate briefing call."There'll be no inroads whatsoever." "On the EV transition, there's an inevitability here. The world is already moving in this direction, and we'll do it in a way that's inclusive. We always do that," he added."That includes workforce and includes a framework of engagement that I know the Biden administration is very sensitive to as it relates to the impact of electric vehicles, not just in terms of its manufacturing but the longer supply chain issues.
Newsom has been tapped by Democrats to help counterprogram the debate, hosted by the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum in Simi Valley, California. Earlier in the call, the governor described the contrast between Democrats and Republicans as"daylight and darkness," in addition to an embodiment of"forces of transformation" and"forces of restoration" during"a profound and existential moment in American history.
Newsom also defended Biden's economy, particularly regarding job creation, GDP growth, and deficit reduction, in response to the debate being co-hosted by Fox Business.
