“President Trump isn’t having it. He’s going to stand up for people, period.”
Washington, D.C. – On Tuesday, U.S. Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) joined Fox News’s Sean Hannity on Hannity to react to Governor Gavin Newsom’s (D-CA) abysmal handling of the violent riots taking place in Los Angeles. The senator noted that if Governor Newsom doesn’t protect his constituents, President Trump will, and that liberal leadership—Kamala Harris, Eric “Mr. Fang Fang” Swalwell, Adam Schiff, Nancy Pelosi, Gavin Newsom, and Maxine Waters—have ruined a once, beautiful state. Highlights below.
Sen. Mullin’s full interview can be found here.
On what California has become under Newsom’s rule:
“Well, here’s a guy [Governor Newsom] that has a state that underneath his reign as governor has lost 3 million people leaving the state. They rank number one in murders in the nation. They have number one cost of living, a high cost of living. They have the number one highest prices in the nation…
“The guy absolutely should be thanking President Trump right now for trying to restore law and order because the only thing Governor Newsom is good at right now is sucking…
“The guy has literally ran California into the ground. I mean, here California is a beautiful state, but at the same time, they have poor leadership. Look, they gave us Kamala Harris. They gave us Mr. Fang Fang himself, Eric Swalwell, Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff, and you’re thinking, ‘what type of leadership do they have there on the West Coast of California?’ Because things are going completely backwards. I mean why isn’t California thriving like the rest of the country?”
On how President Trump—whether the left likes it or not—will protect them:
“They’ve gotten so far to the left that they can’t come back to the center. Even when President Trump is trying to support them at restoring law and order, they have to be anti-Trump because that’s where the Democrat base is at. It’s anti-anything that Trump supports, no matter how right or how good it is for even their state…
“Let’s look at what’s happening right now in California. People’s civil rights are being destroyed because San Francisco, LA, and California want to become a sanctuary city and state and allow illegals to do just what they’re doing right here. And President Trump isn’t having it. He’s going to stand up for people, period.”
On how Newsom needs to be fired by California:
“I’ve never fired anyone for making a mistake. I’ve fired a lot of people for not admitting they made a mistake. Gavin Newsom needs to be fired as governor. There is no way this guy should be running that state…
“He can’t admit he made a mistake. That’s why he needs to be fired. Let’s unpack a few things that he said there, right? Like he said that President Trump just wanted to escalate it. He forgets to remember that the chief, LA police chief, literally said that he was overwhelmed, and he needed help…
“He’s such a liar that you can’t believe anything coming out of his mouth. And can you believe this guy actually thinks he can be president of the United States? He may actually be worse than Joe Biden if he were to get elected President of the United States.”
