‘Newscum is Destroying California’ | Trump hits out at Newsom as California Guv’s ratings Skyrocket

The feud between Donald Trump and California Governor Gavin Newsom is intensifying as both exchange sharp attacks. Trump labeled Newsom “the man destroying California” and mocked him as “Newscum,” claiming he trails in polls. However, a new Echelon Insights survey shows Newsom surging to 13% support among Democratic voters for 2028, up from 4% in April, second only to Kamala Harris. Newsom’s aggressive strategy—directly mocking Trump on social media—has boosted his national profile, fueling speculation about his presidential ambitions. #TrumpVsNewsom #GavinNewsom #DonaldTrump #USPolitics #2028Election #Democrats #Republicans #PoliticalShowdown #Polls #NewsomSurge #KamalaHarris #TrumpAttack #Election2028 #BreakingNews #PoliticalFeud #NewsomRising #USPresidentialRace #NewsomVsTrump #PoliticalDrama #TrumpNewsom #CampaignTrail #NewsomForPresident #TrumpClash #ElectionPolls #SocialMediaPolitics Also Read Amid Trump Tariffs, Jaishankar Urges Stronger India-Russia Trade :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/amid-trump-tariffs-jaishankar-urges-stronger-india-russia-trade-011-7836083.html?ref=DMDesc US Imposed Sanctions On India To End Russia-Ukraine War, More Tariffs If Trump-Putin Talks Fail :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-imposed-sanctions-on-india-to-end-russia-ukraine-war-more-tariffs-if-trump-putin-talks-fail-7835021.html?ref=DMDesc Trump To Arrange Face-To-Face Meeting Between Putin And Ukraine's Zelenskyy :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-to-arrange-face-to-face-meeting-between-putin-and-ukraines-zelenskyy-7833925.html?ref=DMDesc

Musk’s New Party ‘DEAD ON ARRIVAL’? Billionaire Cancels Key Meetings, America Party Plans COLLAPSE [Video]

Musk’s New Party ‘DEAD ON ARRIVAL’? Billionaire Cancels Key Meetings, America Party Plans COLLAPSE

Elon Musk’s much-hyped new political party has reportedly stalled just two months after its launch. Sources say Musk is retreating amid GOP pushback, fearing damage to ties with Republican leadership, especially VP JD Vance. The Tesla billionaire has suspended meetings, distanced himself from allies like Andrew Yang, and shifted focus back to Republican politics. Despite once pledging millions for his own party, Musk may now redirect support toward Vance’s 2028 White House run. Critics argue Musk lacks the credibility and infrastructure to build a lasting third-party force. #ElonMusk #MuskParty #Politics #USPolitics #Republicans #JDVance #Trump #ThirdParty #PoliticalNews #Musk2028 #AmericaPAC #RogerStone #AndrewYang #Election2028 #GOP #PoliticalShift #MuskVsTrump #BreakingNews #TeslaCEO #PoliticalDrama #Campaign2028 #ElectionNews #MuskBacksVance #WhiteHouseRace #PoliticalPower #MuskPAC #USNews #ElectionBattle #ThirdPartyFail #PoliticalComeback ~ED.420~HT.408~

‘Don’t stick your knife…’ MAGA Camp’s Shocking Plea To Get Elon Musk Back | Urges Reconciliation

A surprising twist is unfolding in U.S. politics — prominent MAGA figures are calling for Elon Musk’s return to their fold. Vice President JD Vance, strategist Roger Stone, and activists like Scott Presler are urging reconciliation despite Musk’s past feud with Donald Trump over the “Big Beautiful Bill” and his talk of forming a third party. They say Musk’s vast resources were pivotal to Trump’s 2024 victory, and could be decisive for the 2026 midterms. MAGA Inc has already raised $177 million in 2025, but leaders see Musk as the ultimate game-changer — their “George Soros of the Right.” Musk hasn’t spoken about his “America Party” in weeks and even donated $15 million to the GOP in June. He has recently supported Trump’s calls to federalize D.C. policing. The push for a full political reunion is intensifying. #MAGA #ElonMusk #DonaldTrump #JDVance #RogerStone #USPolitics #MidtermElections #MAGAInc #PoliticalDonations #AmericaParty #ScottPresler #AlexJones #Republicans #GOP #TrumpMusk #PoliticalComeback #Election2026 #GeorgeSoros #RightWing #PoliticalDrama ~HT.410~GR.122~ED.103~
