Californians Set Up President Xi Dummy So Newsom Will Keep The Cities Clean All The Time

SACRAMENTO, CA — In a clever ruse to trick Governor Gavin Newsom into keeping cities and streets clean all the time, Californians set up a dummy of Chinese President Xi outside Gavin Newsom’s office.

Sources confirmed the trick has already proven successful.

“Oh! President Xi, sir! I thought you left yesterday!” said a flustered Governor Newsom as he stepped out of his office building for lunch to see Xi staring at him silently from a sidewalk covered in tents and human feces. “Let me just clean this up for you really quick. I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were still here. Please don’t be upset. I’ll just make a couple of calls and have this street cleaned up in no time. I’m so sorry.”
