Gotta admit, I’m impressed with slick elitist Gavin Newsom. The son of a Stanford law graduate, who was both a judge and the Getty family attorney managing the Getty trust funds — is pretending that he was poor.
Fair warning…this is as cringeworthy as it gets:
This is the guy who started 11 businesses, 10 of which were funded by the Gettys. The guy whose best friend in high school was son of the Gettys, and whose other best friend was the son of CBRE chairman Philip Blum and Senator Dianne Feinstein.
1991 article in SF Chronicle, Newsom is featured as part of the “Children of the Rich.” His mother’s house recently went up for sale for $3.6 million.
I’m not on X, but I’m sure that someone made a point Newsome was enjoying lunch at the French Laundry while issuing stay at home orders and shutting down no-essential businesses, schools, beaches, parks….etc.
