Vance responded: “This idea that Gavin Newsom is somehow going to mimic Donald Trump‘s style, I think that ignores the fundamental genius of President Trump’s political success which is that he’s authentic. He just is who he is.
“You’ve got to be yourself, you’ve got to actually talk to people honestly about the issues. I don’t think it’s that complicated; don’t be a crazy person, be authentic, if the Democrats did that they’d do a hell of a lot better.”
