Former President Donald Trump debuted a new — to him, anyway — nickname for the governor of California during a visit to the U.S. border with Mexico at Eagle Pass, Texas, on Thursday.
Speaking about the differences between his administration’s border policies and those of Democrats, Trump, 77, brought up the leftist “promises” of government handouts that only logically encouraged immigrants to enter the U.S. by any means possible, legal or otherwise.
“We weren’t promising free education, free medical, free everything,” he said of his own approach. “I mean, all the promises that are made, no wonder they come.

“I mean, you look at what this governor, Newscum, from California — isn’t that his name? Newscum,” Trump said. “What he’s done to California is unbelievable.”

“If it’s Biden and Trump, that’s a little bit tough because I am a Democrat, but I don’t like what we’re living,” lifelong Democrat Asalia Casares, a Maverick County tax official who herself is running for reelection this year, told the outlet when asked how she’d vote in the presidential election.

“I don’t like what’s happening in our borders,” she added. “I would probably say Trump.”
A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:
“We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.” Those 12 words have been stuck in my head since I first read them.
Former Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn recently made that comment to Floyd Brown, founder of The Western Journal.
And if the leftists and the elites get their way, that’s exactly what will happen — no real election, no real choice for the Electoral College, and no real say for the American people.
The Western Journal is fighting to keep that from happening, but we can’t do it alone.
We work tirelessly to expose the lying leftist media and the corrupt America-hating elites.
But Big Tech’s stranglehold is now so tight that without help from you, we will not be able to continue the fight.
The 2024 election is literally the most important election for every living American. We have to unite and fight for our country, otherwise we will lose it. And if we lose the America we love in 2024, we’ll lose it for good. Can we count on you to help?
With you we will be able to field journalists, do more investigative work, expose more corruption, and get desperately needed truth to millions of Americans.
We can do this
only with your help. Please don’t wait one minute. Donate right now.
