California Governor Gavin Newsom faced renewed scrutiny over an incident during a basketball game in Communist China, where he accidentally knocked over a child and then allegedly physically assaulted them. The event, previously reported two years ago, resurfaced as critics highlighted the disturbing nature of his actions.
Newsom attempted to showcase his athletic abilities during the game but instead caused a collision with a young Chinese boy. Instead of addressing the accident responsibly, Newsom reportedly resorted to physical punishment as the child tried to recover. The incident drew widespread criticism, with former President Donald Trump sharing the video on social media, accompanied by the word “WOW!”
Observers noted the alarming sequence of events, emphasizing that while accidents can occur, the decision to escalate the situation through violence was unjustified. The incident has reignited debates about accountability and appropriate behavior for public figures.
