Outspoken comedian and radio show host Adam Carolla said that
California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) should be recalled over his
handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.
He also said that Californians should stand up for their rights
and blasted the notion of continual coronavirus-related
lockdowns.
What are the details?
In video footage captured by
TMZ, Carolla indicated that Newsom is akin to some sort of
self-appointed king and that Californians should balk at his
never-ending COVID-19 restrictions.
“We talked to the comedian Tuesday in Burbank, CA, where he was
about to head into a restaurant his friend owns for a little
sit-down mean … almost out of protest, it seems,” TMZ reported.
“It’s pretty clear … Adam thinks the new shutdown orders are
ridiculous, and he explains why.”
In his remarks, Carolla said, “F*** Newsom. F** that idiot.”
“I don’t know who Newsom thinks he is. He’s not a monarch. You
can’t shut down society. You gotta offer some proof why it’s
dangerous,” he said. “And by the way, sheep: Wake up, sheep. It’s
not Newsom, it’s all the sheep who listen to Newsom.”
Carolla also said that he thinks a recall movement against
Newsom is gaining momentum.
“It’d be nice. … I think it is gaining some ground because
he’s an imbecile and he’s incompetent and he’s running this state
into the ground,” he proclaimed. “Listen. We should recall him and
just replace him with one of those plastic owls that they put on
top of restaurants so seagulls don’t s**t on the roof. And we would
be much better off … with no replacement than with Gavin
Newsom.”
Los Angeles-based TMZ reported, “Might sound crazy, but the
petition already has more than half the necessary signatures needed
to get the issue on a ballot soon — and word is Newsom’s camp is
nervous.”
