Subject: Feminist Hero Katie Couric Asks Gavin Newsom If He?s Too Hot To Be President In Hard-Hitting Interview

Katie Couric made history when she became the first woman to solo-host
a primetime news program ? The CBS Evening News ? but now she?s making
news by asking Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) on her podcast whether he?s
too pretty for national politics.

Couric hosted the governor on a recent episode of her ?Next Question?
podcast, and while she did ask him about a number of more serious
policy positions, she also asked whether he was too handsome to be
taken seriously.

WATCH:

Couric: Do you have a Zoolander problem? Are you just
ridiculously good looking as Vogue said? What do you
do about that?

Newsom: You don?t do anything about it?It?s just who I am.

?Do you have a ?Zoolander? problem?? Couric asked, laughing.

?Oh, Jesus,? Newsom laughed. ??Zoolander.'?

?Are you just ridiculously good-looking as Vogue said? No, seriously,
what do you do about that?? Couric asked.

?You don?t do anything about it,? Newsom replied. ?Because if you?re
going to do something about it then you?re bullsh*tting people. You
know what? I am who I am. It?s fine. You don?t have to like me. Or
maybe you like a slick person, I don?t know. Whatever, it?s okay. If I
start showing up ??

?I brought that up because you talked about being authentic,? Couric interrupted. ?And I think it sometimes works against you.?

?Yeah, it?s just who I am. It?s just who I am,? Newsom repeated.

Couric capitalized on that moment to tease the interview, cutting it
into the introduction for the podcast episode. Her YouTube caption
began, ?California Governor Gavin Newsom has spent his career
outrunning a public image that reduces him to a caricature?slick,
ambitious, and impossibly polished.?

Couric?s line of questioning follows a fawning profile from Vogue?s
Spring 2026 issue that opened with the following statement: ?Let?s get
this out of the way: He is embarrassingly handsome, his hair seasoned
with silver, at ease with his own eminence as he delivers his final
State of the State address.?

The piece, authored by Maya Singer, continued, ?It must drive Trump
nuts. Newsom: lithe, ardent, energetic, a glimmer of optimism in his
eye; Kennedy-esque. Add to that his stunning wife and four adorable
kids, and the executive strut of a self-made millionaire who has spent
the past seven years at the helm of a state big, complex, and rich
enough to be a nation of its own.?

Newsom, who term-limits out at the end of this year as California
governor, is widely expected to run for president in 2028.

Democrats and the liberal media hate President Trump more than they
love this country.

"Oh my gawd, guvner! You're just soooo hawt! <bats eyelashes> How can you be taken seriously when you're sooooo gorjus!!"

Even more vomit.

Self-made? Newsom's only as self-made as Trump, which is to say, he was given millions by his daddy's buddy (Getty) to start his business, just like Trump was given a bunch of money from his father.

Trump's claim of being self-made is lambasted and derided for that reason, but as per usual, we have a different standard when it comes to Democrats.

who has spent the past seven years at the helm of a state big, complex, and rich
enough to be a nation of its own.?

And has almost single-handedly turned it into an absolute mess.
