Newsom accepts ‘Cup O Peace’ award from Kimmel: ‘Eat your heart out, Donald’
Governor Newsom received a comedic mock trophy on Jimmy Kimmel Live, part of a satirical bit highlighting political awards and promoting his memoir.
- On Tuesday, California governor Gavin Newsom accepted a surreal mock trophy on Jimmy Kimmel Live! while promoting his memoir Young Man in a Hurry.
- Josh Meyers, performing a Newsom impersonation, entered on a skateboard and parodied the governor with a ribbon-cutting at a shelter for non-binary chihuahuas on Tuesday.
- The sketch featured a prop trophy plated with platinum from expired AMEX cards and holding a magnum of sauv blanc, which Meyers poured before both Newsoms drank using paper straws.
- Newsom played along with the gag, deadpanning it was 'long overdue' and asking if it came with a third term, then used the moment to jab at Trump and posted a thank-you on X.
- The bit echoed Kimmel's past jabs at Trump, riffing on Donald Trump's desire for high-profile prizes and continuing a late-night pattern including a January offer tied to ICE's Minneapolis actions.
