Governor Wes Moore and President Donald J. Trump

ANNAPOLIS, Md. — Governor Wes Moore’s statement regarding the inauguration of President Donald Trump: 

“The peaceful transfer of power is not something we invented – it’s something we inherited from our founders, starting right here in the Annapolis State House when in 1783, General George Washington resigned his commission as commander-in-chief. Democracy is our greatest heirloom as a nation, and it’s something we hope to pass on and make more enduring for the next generation.

Our priority has been – and will continue to be – protecting the interests of all Marylanders. In the days after the 2024 election, we articulated our shared dedication to four key principles: Deliver for Marylanders; defend our constitutional rights; grow our economy; and restore faith in our public servants, our institutions, and our democracy. We thank the Biden-Harris Administration for their steadfast partnership in pursuing each of these four goals, and we will partner with the Trump-Vance Administration when we are aligned on those core principles that will make progress for Marylanders. We pray for God’s grace as our state and nation open this next chapter.”

  1. “we articulated our shared dedication to four key principles” then,
    “grow our economy”. He has a funny way of expressing things, whereas most people don’t think of ‘growing’ as being movement in a negative direction.

  2. Moore said, “defend our constitutional rights.” Liar. Defend all rights except, “the right to keep and bear arms.”

  3. Dear Governor Moore,

    You sir are so lost in the sauce its not funny. What about the inability to legally purchase a handgun without an HQL? That HQL is a direct infringement on the 2nd Amendment.

    Also, how about lower the taxes on everything in this state? You over tax the life out of everything. Stop spending our tax dollars on dumb projects.

  4. This governor, Has no idea how to run a state.
    We are in a deficit because he has been trying to building a name for himself.
    Our last governor left a surplus and along come More.
    What a waste,,
    He is finished.

  5. If you didn’t know he was in his 60s+, you would n’t think he was in his 60s+. He doesn’t look it, he looks young.

  6. a moment of inactivity, please, for the anniversary of Doe v. Bolton\ Roe v. Wade. A shameful day for the country.

  7. Maybe the US national debt will be dealt with, effectively. Until then, we can’t afford it.

  8. hooray congratulations to the january 6ers outta jail horray (all for paying Congress a visit)
