We’ve covered some of California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s disastrous trip to China, including his glamour shot at the Great Wall that didn’t quite go how he’d hoped, and his pimping of blacklisted Chinese EV manufacturer BYD (a group the EU is also in the process of blacklisting), but the video of Newsom playing basketball with some Chinese schoolkids takes the cake.

Newsom played basketball and baseball for two years in college before playing varsity baseball. He should have had some athletic footwork knowledge, but it was not apparent.

Newsom should be able to teach children how to play basketball without pushing them down. His kids are basketball players (we learned this during the pandemic when his son played basketball in a summer camp in 2020 while the rest of Californian kids didn’t get that privilege).

Look at how Newsom treats that child after he knocks it down. He plays with the child numerous times. Once he realizes that he is on camera, he stands up and embraces the child as he desperately tries to escape. Kinda Joe Biden-esque.

Here is a slightly longer version:

Cringe.
