SACRAMENTO, CA—On August 22, 2025, California Governor Gavin Newsom emerged as the Democrat best suited for a writer’s assistant role on a potential Our Cartoon President reboot, thanks to his all-caps Trump-mimicking tweets. The Gavin-Newsom-Our-Cartoon-President buzz highlights his satirical edge post-2024 Democratic losses.
“Newsom’s X posts scream 2018 Trump satire,” said analyst Tara Kline. His Governor Newsom Press Office account channels Trump’s brash style, perfect for a junior role in Showtime’s animated series. For more political satire, visit The Onion.
While other Democrats craft policies, Newsom’s trolling wins fans, positioning him for clerical tasks and joke pitches in a hypothetical writer’s room. “No liberal matches his cartoon-ready flair,” Kline added.
