California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) doesn’t appear to be a fan of social media users likening him to The Wall Street businessman-turned-serial killer, Patrick Bateman, from the 2000 film “American Psycho.”
In an awkward exchange during a Wednesday interview with ABC News’ Jonathan Karl, the journalist suddenly brought up the comparison amid their wide-ranging conversation.
