President Trump couldn't help but laugh at California Governor Gavin Newsom's latest proposal. Newsom suggested a federal film tax credit, which had Trump rolling on the floor with laughter. 'California built the film industry - and now they want our money?' Trump joked on Truth Social. 'This is like watching a slow-motion comedy of errors!' The film industry has certainly had its share of misfortunes lately, from pandemic shutdowns to labor disputes. But Newsom remains undeterred, proclaiming that California is ready to 'Make America Film Again.' One can only imagine the popcorn-filled movie nights at the White House as they watch this drama unfold.
Trump's response to Newsom's proposal was swift and hilarious. In a Truth Social post, he announced 100% tariffs on all foreign films, declaring that 'the nation's movie industry is DYING a very fast death.' It's unclear if Trump understands the global nature of film production or the potential economic impact of his decision. But one thing is certain - he's not holding back when it comes to trolling Newsom.
The real question is, will this comedic feud between Trump and Newsom ever end? Or are we in for a never-ending series of slapstick gags and punchlines? Only time will tell if these two can find a common plot twist that doesn't involve triggering each other's base. Until then, pop the popcorn and enjoy the show!
