I'm not a social media savvy person. I just thought of click bait as trying to get you to click on something, especially advertising. So I see Newsom as definitely trolling, but not click bait.

You are not wrong, in my view. But as we move to ad-free zones like Bluesky, “clickbait” takes on a subtle variation in my mind. I hold those i trust and consider to higher standards. Mark is one of those.
