California Governor Promotes Kneeling Trump Knee Pads
According to the American Consumer News and Business Channel (CNBC) and the New York Post, on the 22nd, during his attendance at the World Economic Forum in Davos, California Governor Gavin Newsom publicly displayed and promoted a red knee pad, in an attempt to mock some Western politicians and business figures who "kneel before" U.S. President Trump.
On the local time of the 22nd, Newsom said at the forum event that this product can be purchased through the website of his campaign team. He said, "Many business leaders are selling their souls to this administration."
Newsom also said, "The previous batch of knee pads have sold out, just like some law firms are selling their souls, many American universities are selling their souls. Yes, many corporate executives are selling their souls to this administration." He also said that these knee pads "can also be purchased in bulk," and he raised a red knee pad with a signature of Trump.
According to the introduction, the price of this knee pad is $100, and it is now open for pre-order, with the related income used to fund Newsom's campaign organization. The product page reads, "Satisfy all your needs for kneeling before Trump - now launching the Republican red version. Just pay with your soul."
Previously, on the 20th, Newsom openly criticized European leaders for being "weak" when facing Trump, saying, "It's time for them to stand tall and show some backbone." Newsom also sarcastically said that "those European leaders should wear knee pads," implying that they could be more comfortable when "kneeling."
The report stated that Newsom is widely seen as one of the potential Democratic candidates for the 2028 U.S. presidential election, and he has repeatedly clashed with Trump publicly in the past.
