Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Newsom Tells World Leaders “Donald Trump Is Temporary” at Munich Security Conference
Caption: Newsom Tells World Leaders “Donald Trump Is Temporary” at Munich Security Conference. California Gov. Newsom told world leaders at the Munich Security Conference that Trump is “temporary” and will be gone in three years, urging Europe to plan for a future beyond his presidency. Newsom criticized Trump’s climate policies and urged European leaders to stand up to his administration. Newsom faced daily attacks from Trump, saying the president, at age 80, had mocked him with schoolyard-style nicknames — remarks he challenged publicly in Munich. He and other Democrats at the summit aim to offer an alternative to Trump’s transactional foreign policy and strengthen alliances with European partners. Sen. Ruben Gallego said his own Munich visit would focus on rebuilding alliances and restoring steady American leadership amid the perceived chaos of Trump’s policies. Newsom is expected to meet leaders including German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and others to formalize partnerships and climate cooperation, part of bolstering California’s global profile. The governor’s remarks come as Trump’s foreign policy — including tariffs, Greenland threats and NATO tensions — has prompted doubts among longtime U.S. allies. Newsom’s international outreach is seen as part of his effort to build foreign policy credentials ahead of a potential 2028 presidential bid while emphasizing California’s climate leadership.
