Gavin Newsom Tells Black Crowd He’s Like Them Because His SAT Score Is Low and He Can’t Read

Warren Squire | 3:12 AM on February 23, 2026

On Sunday, California Governor Gavin Newsom let his inner racist slip out in Atlanta. He’s been on the road promoting his new autobiography and giving America a sneak peek at his 2028 presidential campaign. Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens welcomed Newsom, who spoke about himself in front of a mostly black crowd. That’s when the tone-deaf pandering started. Newsom tried to convince attendees that he was just like them. How? He explained that he had a below-average SAT score and lacked the ability read.

Hear him for yourself. (WATCH)

We’re going to go with the latter.

Posters say Newsom’s lack of ‘reading’ skills extends beyond his dyslexia.

That’s essentially what he said.

I'm having trouble determining who is more the more incompetent, Newsom or AOC. Maybe Kamala?

Excerpt:
You know that cringe-worthy moment when a wealthy, elite politician tries to pander to a crowd by pretending he’s just like them, only to come off as insulting and tone-deaf? That’s exactly what California Governor Gavin Newsom did on Sunday in Atlanta while promoting his new autobiography and auditioning for a 2028 presidential run. Speaking in front of a mostly black audience, Newsom decided the best way to connect was to declare that he’s basically one of them because he had a low SAT score and “can’t read.” Yes, really. The man who’s been governor of the most populous state in the country, who attended elite schools and lives in multi-million-dollar properties, tried to bond by bragging about academic failure and illiteracy. The epic fail was caught on camera for the world to see.

Good God - he actually verbatim said this.

I’m not sure what is worse, Newsom admitting that he is stupid & can’t read or that he presumes that a room of blacks are also.

He sure is lucky he didn't put on extra pounds from all the mac & cheese he had to eat because his mother could afford nothing else.

You know that tone-deaf moment when a privileged, multi-millionaire politician tries to “bond” with a black audience by bragging about his own supposed stupidity, only to get absolutely demolished by Nicki Minaj? That’s exactly what happened when California Governor Gavin Newsom spoke in Atlanta on Sunday, promoting his new autobiography and auditioning for a 2028 presidential run. In front of a mostly black crowd, Newsom decided the best way to connect was to declare: “I’m like you… I had a below-average SAT score and I can’t read.” The line was meant to make him seem relatable, but it landed like a lead balloon — and Nicki Minaj wasted zero time roasting him into next week.

Nicki just exposed him in 4K 😭
Newsom really thought that “I’m like you, I can’t read flex was gonna land with Black voters. Embarrassing.

Newsom insulting people by confirming he’s stupid is stupid.

"You black folk are just stupid enough to vote for me!"

Does he have a Corn Pop type story to tell? I bet he is fresh out of Compton.

Gavin Newsom claims he “can’t read,” but a few months back, he claimed he had read a book of over 300 pages in less than two hours.

"I can't read! What does this say? Is it about me? Did I miss the SAT? I'm just a poor dyslexic child all hopped up on boxed macaroni and cheese!"

Noisome also claims he doesn't know how to get a copy of his birth certificate, despite the fact that he has a passport, and his drivers license, if he has one, probably has a star in the top right corner (= REAL ID).

He just came back from Germany, so he no doubt possesses a passport. Why worry about the prospect of voter ID if he has a passport proving his citizenship?
Does that hair glop penetrate the scalp and destroy brain cells?

This ought to win over the black vote, however, he needs to dress up his speeches a bit with a 'black southern drawl'.

Ouch.

@tatereeves
This seems like a good time to remind you that a black student in Mississippi is 2.5X more likely to read proficiently by 4th grade than if he or she lived in California. We would be happy to send one of our reading coaches to assist you, @GavinNewsom. Learning is a lifelong journey, and you might achieve some of the gains that our black fourth graders have.
Incidentally, one nice feature of increased literacy is that you do not have to fall back on vulgarity to seem passionate.
Let me know!
