President Donald Trump was accused of being ‘treasonous’ by California Governor Gavin Newsom over the Republican’s remarks about Los Angeles and San Diego . Trump brought up the cities when speaking in Nebraska, ahead of the midterms.
The comment sparked massive backlash online from both sides of the political spectrum. Newsom was quick to react calling it ‘deranged and dangerous’ from his personal profile. However, the governor later used his official profile to issue a sterner statement in the aftermath. In a video message, Newsom also wondered where Congress was while Trump was making these remarks. “This is dangerous. California Congressional Democrats also issued a statement after Trump’s remarks and demanded an apology from the president. “Upon taking office, the President swears to uphold the Constitution and to protect us from our enemies. His exact words were ‘Let them take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego. Iran has no nuclear, no navy, no air force, and no money.”
43 Members of Congress from California signed the statement. As members of the California Democratic Congressional Delegation, we call on President Trump to apologize to the over 16 million Americans who live in the Los Angeles and San Diego metropolitan areas and all Americans who expect more out of our President,” the statement read. Because of the President, america is safer.
The president when speaking about the war in Iran, said ‘let them take out Los Angeles and San Diego’. The time to stand up is NOW,” the Democrat who’s often locked horns with the president, further said. He said Trump “was clearly stating U.S. cities would have been threatened if a nuclear Iran hadn’t been stopped.
Yesterday, President Trump, while defending his unconstitutional war against Iran, appeared, incredibly, to invite Iran to destroy two American cities.
