California Governor Gavin Newsom continues to troll President Donald Trump on social media, and his latest meme pokes fun at Trump as well as his MAGA followers.

On Sept. 4, the governor’s press office shared the meme on X, featuring an AI image of Newsom in a blue patterned blazer, drinking white liquid from a cocktail glass with the ocean as his backdrop.

In front of Newsom is a liquor bottle with the label, “MAGA Tears,” and social media users weighed in on his latest presidential troll.

The hilarious post was captioned with all-caps in the same manner the president uses when he rants on social media, reading “CHEERS! PATRIOTS!!!”

Several users on X loved the meme and reacted underneath the post.

“LOL. Superb.”

“MAGA must just hate this guy,” replied one. “Epic social media games.”

“This right here should be on a t-shirt,” wrote one user. Another X user replied, “Are MAGA TEARS best hot or cold?”

Trump supporters were not as amused by the MAGA tears meme. “Now you’re just embarrassing yourself,” claimed one MAGA fan.

Newsom first began trolling Trump by writing sarcastic and hilarious comments on social media in the signature all-caps style of the president, and liberals were here for it. He shared another post on Sept. 4 that mocked Trump’s failed school, Trump University.

X users appreciated the latest troll, with one user replying, “They get more unhinged every day. I love that for us.”

Has Trump met his match with Gavin? Some believe so as the two politcal heavyweights have been going back and forth for months online even before Trump became president in Jan. 2025. The merciless mocking is great for those who enjoy entertainment, as it helps boost Newsom’s popularity online and puts money in his pockets.

“If nothing else, we’ve called out the absurdity of the normalization of Donald Trump,” Newsom said during a call with the Daily Beast.

“We’re pushing back, and people are paying a bit more attention… Maybe they should be paying a bit more attention to what the President of the United States is modeling every single day. Nothing about this is normal, and it needs to be called out,” he continued.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
