I caught my reflection in a spoon while I was eating my cereal, and I remember thinking "wow, you're ridiculously good looking, maybe you could do that for a career." ---Derek Zoolander
Did the Gavin Newsom campaign think it was a good idea to turn to Vogue magazine for a glowing profile piece as perhaps a desperate attempt to counter the disastrous Atlantic magazine story that recently blasted the California governor who has 2028 presidential aspirations?
Whoever that campaign person was could be finding his (or her) job currently at risk due to the hilarious blowback that resulted from the glam paean that resulted in Newsom coming off as the Zoolander of politics as portrayed on Sunday by Maya Singer in "Gavin Newsom Is Setting His Own Rules."
Just a brief sampling of some excerpts from the Vogue puff piece reveals why this boomeranged on Newsom by turning him into a laughingstock thoroughly mocked in much of the media, both news and social, as well as in much of the rest of the web.

I’m sure the only thing magic was the mushrooms the writer took.
I maintain my position that he is the Democrat’s Jeb Bush.
The word on the street is that Zorro is coming for Governor Newsome and will take him out.
President Trump is sending J.D.Vance to bring to light and prosecution the zillions of tax payer money fraudulently stolen with the model brought to light in Minnesota.
Well, that's one way to put it, eh?
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great example of the leftist biosphere theu all live in.
He was already a laughingstock.
"I was having a hard time taking in the man. His actual molecular reality."
50 Shades of Gavin.
They didn’t turn him into a laughing stock.....they just pointed it out.
One hundred percent of fashion mags, as well as one hundred percent of women’s mags snubbed Melania since 2015 after loving her dearly prior. You can still find the occasional cover with Big Mike’s mug on it, but not Melania.
GTMA.......the liberal media would have us believe that Governor DeSantis wiping the floor with greasy gavin in thst debate never happened.
Does ANYONE read Vogue?
Don’t progressive females eschew make up and stuff?
Could that be a reason Vogue is no longer in vogue
The comparison does seem curiously apt, doesn’t it?
I’m with you on that one.
Thus the term, slobbering media.
It used to be a little more sophisticated.
This person writes like a 13-year-old...
They want Buttigieg.
That’s a really good point.
The AWFULs are not focused on high fashion.
Other Gen Z women are not focused on “looking good”.
Where does Vogue expect to find an audience either now or 10 years from now? It seems pretty suicidal.
I will also point out that Vogue put Michelle Obama on the cover repeatedly, and they put Jill Biden on the cover repeatedly. Melania Trump? Not since 2009 (when she was working as an actual model). Once she became First Lady, Vogue lost all interest in her. And anyone who has watched the new “Melania” documentary knows that she is beautiful, stylish, and extremely knowledgeable about style and taste. Vogue shuns that stuff, I suppose.
