Newsom Says Trump Blocked His Davos Speech After Criticizing World Leaders
California Gov. Newsom alleges Trump administration pressured event organizers to cancel his scheduled Davos speech after he criticized Trump and his policies at the World Economic Forum.
- On Wednesday in Davos, California Gov. Gavin Newsom was singled out by President Donald Trump at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, with a camera capturing Newsom smiling.
- Last year Newsom said he adopted `humor` as a tactic to mirror and expose Trump's absurdity, and Newsom's social-media team mimics Trump's tone with memes and AI images.
- Clips of the exchange circulated online, boosting social-media engagement for both sides as President Donald Trump told the Davos audience `We're going to help the people in California` and said he `used to get along so great with Gavin`.
- Governors in attendance reacted sharply, with Newsom and Beshear voicing disapproval; Newsom called the speech `remarkably boring` and `remarkably insignificant`, while Beshear deemed it `dangerous`, `disrespectful` and `unhinged`.
- At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear joined a Wednesday panel, amplifying broader 2028 political positioning along with Newsom.
