California Governor Gavin Newsom was left fuming after getting savagely roasted by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent yesterday during the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Bessent dropped the line of the day and completely destroyed Newsom when it was his turn to speak at Davos.

“I think it’s very, very ironic that Governor Newsom, who strikes me as Patrick Bateman meets Sparkle Beach Ben, may be the only Californian who knows less about economics than Kamala Harris,” Bessent quipped.

As one will see below, Newsom was not too happy. He became even more triggered after learning what the Trump White House was saying about him.

WATCH:

REPORTER: The Treasury Secretary described you as Patrick Bateman meets Sparkle Beach Ken…

NEWSOM (stunned and triggered): Whoa, whoa, whoa! That was the U.S. Secretary of Treasury?

REPORTER: I have a couple more. The White House Communications Director called you Newscum…

NEWSON: Newscum?

REPORTER: The official government account described you with a very online sexual slur that people don’t want to hear at 8:30 in the morning. You’re in some ways responding in kind.

NEWSOM: I fight fire with fire.

REPORTER: Is that kind of discourse from them and you good for America?

NEWSOM (fuming): It’s deeply unbecoming.

For those curious, the sexual slur in question came from the White House’s Rapid Response account.

It mocked Newsom for being stuck in the “corner c*ck chair” as Trump delivered his speech in Davos. Ouch.
