Newsom shows off knee pads for CEOs 'selling out' to the Trump administration
California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Thursday showed off knee pads that he suggested were for leaders "selling out" to the Trump administration.
Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Newsom said the red knee pads were available to buy via a website he had created.
"The last round of knee pads sold out, just as our law firms are selling out. Many American universities are selling out, and yes, many corporate leaders are selling out to this administration," Newsom said.
"These are available in bulk, too," he said, holding up one of the knee pads, which showed U.S. President Donald Trump's signature.
