"As President, I would much prefer that he clean up this Crime disaster before I go there for a 'walk.'"
President Donald Trump targeted Governor Wes Moore (D-MD) in a post on Sunday morning, lashing out at him over an invitation to “walk the streets” in Maryland and saying that he would not do so until Moore took steps to clean up crime.
Trump took aim at Moore — who has been floated as a potential contender for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2028 — in a post shared first on his Truth Social platform, comparing him to another of the Democratic Party’s top prospects (California Governor Gavin Newsom) in the process.
“Governor Wes Moore of Maryland has asked, in a rather nasty and provocative tone, that I ‘walk the streets of Maryland’ with him,” Trump began. “I assume he is talking about out of control, crime ridden, Baltimore?”
“As President, I would much prefer that he clean up this Crime disaster before I go there for a ‘walk,'” Trump continued, arguing that Moore should have to clean up the city before he asked the President of the United States to join him there. “Wes Moore’s record on Crime is a very bad one, unless he fudges his figures on crime like many of the other ‘Blue States’ are doing.”

Ruh roh! Threatening the bipoc gov. Proof positive (hat tip to jazz-mean croquet) of PDJT racis’ haitred......
President Trump - and Governor Moore - better not make that West Baltimore. And even the better residential neighborhoods in Baltimore - and yes there are still some - are seeing broad daylight carjackings and muggings.
And the state of crime in Baltimore falls even moreso on Mayor Scott and the city admin than it does on Governor Moore (although Moore is no friend to LEOs).
Thank you PDJT. Wes Moore has a LOT of work to do in Baltimordor.
I hate this state.
The “thank you for your attention to this matter” never ceases to bring a smile.
True dat.
“..President Trump wants to put Wes Moore back in chains....”
Naaa. Wes Moore put himself back in chains when he joined up with the communist RAT party.
GREAT job, president Trump.
Wes Moore wants to be the next Obama.
“Been there, done that.”
Was invitation to “walk the streets”.
Butler, Pennsylvania with more than one?.
Never trust a democrat it’s your last act.
Reminds me of the G Man doing a live radio spot while walking with Crackhead Marion Barry. Classic and Brutal.
