President Trump delivered a devastating takedown of the UK's misguided climate partnership with California's failing Governor Gavin Newsom, warning Britain against aligning with a politician whose radical policies have driven his state into the ground. 'Gavin is a loser. Everything he's touched turns to garbage,' Trump told Politico, highlighting how Newsom's disastrous environmental extremism has sent businesses and families fleeing California in droves. The President's swift intervention exposes the folly of Ed Miliband's 'inappropriate' green energy deal with one of America's most incompetent Democrat governors.
Trump's criticism cuts straight to the heart of California's self-inflicted crisis under Newsom's leadership. The Golden State has become a cautionary tale of what happens when climate ideology trumps economic common sense—rolling blackouts, skyrocketing energy costs, and mass exodus of businesses to Republican-led states. 'If they did to the UK what he did to California, this will not be a very successful venture,' the President warned, demonstrating his commitment to protecting America's allies from the same green energy disasters plaguing the West Coast.
Meanwhile, the hypocrisy of UK Energy Secretary Ed Miliband has been laid bare. While trumpeting his California partnership, Miliband continues to hide the details of his secret energy deal with Communist China—a regime that intelligence services warn poses direct threats to Western energy security. Conservative shadow minister Claire Coutinho exposed how Miliband refused to answer questions about his Beijing arrangement over 17 times, even as Chinese state media bragged about the partnership's scope.
This latest clash perfectly illustrates the stark choice facing America's allies: embrace Trump's America-first energy dominance or fall victim to the failed green policies that have crippled states like California. President Trump's leadership provides a clear alternative—unleashing domestic energy production, restoring economic competitiveness, and rejecting the climate extremism that enriches our adversaries while impoverishing our people. Smart leaders worldwide will heed the President's warning and chart a course toward energy independence rather than environmental disaster.
