At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Gavin Newsom used a 30-minute session to sharply criticize President Donald Trump and the state of U.S. governance, calling it "the Rule of Don" rather than the rule of law. He labeled Congress "supine" and accused universities, law firms, and corporate leaders of selling out to the administration, illustrating corporate acquiescence by brandishing bright red kneepads for executives. The remarks drew rounds of applause. Newsom is a Davos regular and his appearance was framed as part of a broader effort to rebut Trump’s vision for the future of capitalism. Trump responded by calling Newsom a "good guy."
