Gavin Newsom’s ‘Patrick Bateman’ post flops: ‘He accidentally trolls himself’

BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales is taking aim at Gavin Newsom after the California governor proudly compared himself to Patrick Bateman — the infamous fictional serial killer portrayed by Christian Bale.
“Gavin Newsom is not the king of trolling. In fact, Gavin Newsom is bad at it. He’s so bad at it that he accidentally trolls himself,” Gonzales says.
“For so many years people have been saying that Patrick Bateman and I look alike. Now this pic has been going all over the place. What do you think?” Newsom posted on X, alongside a photo of him next to Bale.
“Patrick Bateman is like the worst person in the world. Like, he is obsessed with his appearance … he’s a total narcissist. Also happens to be a psychotic serial killer, rapist, cannibal, torturer,” Gonzales comments.
“Everyone’s like, ‘Yeah, we agree. There’s a lot of similarities between you and Patrick Bateman, Gavin.’ Like, you’re just setting yourself up to be trolled, which he was,” she continues.
A post on X from Fox News reported on the humble comparison, writing, “Governor Gavin Newsom is sparking widespread mockery after ‘bizarrely’ comparing his own look to the fictional serial killer Patrick Bateman.”
Newsom quote-tweeted the article, writing, “They still don’t get it.”
“Gav, I think you’re the one who still doesn’t get it,” Gonzales comments. “Unless you’re trying to tell us that you are, in fact, a psychotic serial killer.”

California’s Democrat legislators should have accepted defeat graciously, respected voters’ wishes, and shifted their resources to other pressing issues.
Gavin Newsom falls apart when questioned on abortion
If you’re going to debate Gavin Newsom on something, you might want to choose the topic of abortion — because the governor of California isn’t capable of winning.
In his debate with Ron DeSantis on Fox News, Newsom was asked about abortion.
“You have allocated in your budget $265 million for abortion last year alone. My question, very specific, do you support any restrictions at all on abortion, especially in months seven, eight, and nine?” Sean Hannity asked Newsom.
“I’m going to answer that question, but let’s talk about the issue of abortion,” Newsom answered, clearly trying to dodge the question.
He then immediately attacked DeSantis, which wasn’t his brightest idea.
“I think this is important and it bears repeating,” he began. “Ron DeSantis has signed the most extreme anti-abortion bills in America. He signed a bill banning any exceptions for rape and incest, and then he said it didn’t go far enough and decided to sign a six-week ban before women even know they’re pregnant.”
“Even Donald Trump said it was too extreme,” he added, before telling Hannity that he does in fact support late-term abortion.
“It should be up to the mother, and her doctor, and her conscience.”
Like many Americans, Pat Gray is disgusted with what he heard.
“Right up to birth,” Gray says sadly. “You talk about extreme — can you get too extreme when you’re talking about the life of a human baby? Can you be too extreme on that? I don’t know. Either you believe it’s life or you don’t. Either you believe that you're taking a life when you abort the child or you don’t. Which is it?”
