Gavin Newsom dubbed 'Batman villain' as Benny Johnson points out 'zero self-awareness' amid APEC Summit
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA: This year, San Francisco is set to host the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit.
However, California Governor Gavin Newsom faced social media criticism after acknowledging that the city, known for its homelessness issues, strategically initiated a substantial cleanup effort ahead of the summit, according to Fox News.
Conservative news host Benny Johnson has also chimed in with his take on Newsom amid the cleanup which has made the headlines as President Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping are scheduled to meet on Wednesday, November 15.
Johnson has accused Newson of the lack of “self-awareness” and the internet has agreed with the conservative host as they join in to mock the governor of California.

Johnson then quoted Newsom in the same post, “If you have people over at your house, you are gonna clean up the house.” He also added, “Zero self-awareness.”
In the clip, Newsom said, “Any time you put on an event, by definition, you have people over at your house, you’re going to clean up the house.”
He added, “You got 21 world leaders, you got tens of thousands of people coming from all around the globe. What an opportunity to showcase the world’s most extraordinary place, San Fransisco.”
Gavin Newsom faces backlash on X
After Benny Johnson accused Gavin Newsom of having “zero self-awareness,” the internet was quick to join Johnson and mock the governor of California.
One user wrote, “If I had dog crap on the floor, I’d pick it up prior to company coming over. I’d also train the dog. Sounds like Newsom just waits for company to come over and then buys new carpet each time. Great governance.”

One user wrote, “What I find most fascinating about this are the San Franciscans who vote for this guy; over and over and over and over again,” and another said, “Gavin Newsom very clearly hates Americans. This man will never be president. No one outside of California would give him the time of day.”
