In one part of the ad, Newsom calls out the Texas governor for being “rolled over” by Trump: “He called Greg Abbott, who doesn’t have the courage, doesn’t have the conscious, and he has rolled over and he said ‘yes/sir and.'”

Well, Fox had a big issue with this line, specifically because they’re saying it’s making fun of Gov. Abbott, who is in a wheelchair:

“Greg Abbott, who is in a wheelchair, and Newsom says he rolled over for Trump. That’s almost as bad as Jasmine Crockett calling him Governor Hot Wheels.”
Fox
“We asked for a statement and Newsom’s office gave us something flippant like, ‘You’re so woke, he’ll get over it.'”
Fox
They showed the actual statement from Newsom’s office, which said: “No. But how woke of you to ask! I’m sorry Greg’s feelings were hurt. Poor guy — we hope he recovers.”

People are loving this one.
“Saying ‘stop being woke’ whenever a conservative complains is a good bit,” one person commented.
“I thought comedy was back??” another person asked.
And this person said what we’ve been saying for weeks, “Newsoms comms team is locked the fuck in right now.”
He’s broken Fox News and Donald Trump… Let’s see who’s next!
