California Gov. Gavin Newsom, an outspoken critic of President Donald Trump who has been trolling the president through mocking mimicry online, indicated during remarks on Wednesday that he is poised to release a "coin" on his online shop that features Trump-trolling merchandise.
Trump has previously promoted a Trump cryptocurrency meme coin, and Newsom made the comment after recalling talking to Trump "about his crypto grift."
"I think we'll add a coin," he said adding, perhaps a "Trump corruption coin or something."
Newsom has promoted Trump-trolling merchandise for sale in an online store.
"THE PATRIOT SHOP IS NOW OPEN!!!!" he recently wrote on his personal X account. "MANY PEOPLE ARE SAYING THIS IS THE GREATEST MERCHANDISE EVER MADE. PLEASE ENJOY, AMERICA!"
For example, one of the posts declared, "EXCEPT WHAT IS WRITTEN AND BROADCAST IN THE FAKE NEWS, I NOW HAVE THE HIGHEST POLL NUMBERS I’VE EVER HAD, SOME IN THE 60’S AND EVEN 70’S. THANK YOU. MAKE AMERICA GAVIN AGAIN!!! — GCN"
