Gavin Newsom's Peculiar Sitting Position Leaves Internet Wondering 'How?!'

During a recent interview, California Governor Gavin Newsom adopted a sitting position that quickly captured the attention of social media users. What started as a serious political discussion unexpectedly turned into a viral sensation.

The governor appeared at the New York Times Dealbook Summit, where he chose a notably tight, cross-legged posture on stage. Viewers online were quick to comment, calling it uncomfortable to watch.

Governor Newsom shared the stage with journalist Andrew Ross Sorkin, discussing the state of the Democratic Party. He emphasized that Democrats should appear more culturally normal and less judgmental to resonate with voters. Meanwhile, cameras focused on his legs, which were crossed tightly with one foot extended far from the chaira position reminiscent of certain yoga poses.

Once photos and clips from the summit circulated online, Newsoms posture quickly became the primary topic of conversation. Social media users highlighted how he had folded himself into the chair, generating a wave of jokes and playful commentary about the apparent discomfort.

Comments included quips like, If your legs were crossed any further, youd be a pretzel, and, Never trust anyone who sits like that. Some even used the pose as a metaphor for the political pressures Newsom faces, joking that he seemed unusually tense. At least hes crushing something, one user remarked as the images spread across platforms.

Aside from his remarks on the Democratic Party and national topics such as the National Guard, Newsom also engaged with actress Halle Berry, who questioned his policies. So far, the governor has not publicly responded to the online reactions or memes sparked by his unusual sitting style.
