He described Baltimore as a \u201chorrible death bed\u201d rife with crime\u2014a description he has used for several Democratic-led cities.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"649\" data-end=\"670\">Moore Fires Back<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"672\" data-end=\"826\">Governor Moore did not take the comment lightly. In a speech, he challenged Trump to \u201cwalk our streets and not just talk about us from the Oval Office.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-3\">\n<div id=\"weverydaystories.com_responsive_2\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/23207117756\/weverydaystories.com\/weverydaystories.com_responsive_2_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-start=\"828\" data-end=\"1031\">Then Trump claimed that Moore had privately called him \u201cthe greatest president of my lifetime.\u201d He described a meeting where Moore allegedly hugged him, shook his hand, and praised his job performance.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1033\" data-end=\"1074\">The Governor Denies the Conversation<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1076\" data-end=\"1253\">Moore insists the conversation never happened. Carter Elliott IV, a senior communications adviser, clarified: \u201cMoore and the president met, but the governor did not say that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1255\" data-end=\"1561\">Speaking on WBAL Radio, Moore emphasized his integrity:<br data-start=\"1310\" data-end=\"1313\" \/>\u201cI spent the past six months before that election campaigning on why I did not think he should be the next president. So when I say that conversation never happened, that imaginary conversation never happened, I mean it literally never happened.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1563\" data-end=\"1707\">On X, Moore initially responded with a simple \u201clol,\u201d then added a six-word retort to Trump:<br data-start=\"1654\" data-end=\"1657\" \/><strong data-start=\"1657\" data-end=\"1705\">\u201cKeep telling yourself that, Mr. President.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1709\" data-end=\"1742\">Trump Criticizes Moore Again<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1744\" data-end=\"1988\">Trump continued his criticism on Monday, claiming Moore \u201cdoesn\u2019t have what it takes\u201d to lower crime in Maryland. He added:<br data-start=\"1866\" data-end=\"1869\" \/>\u201cMoore is doing a bad job, [Gavin] Newsom is doing a bad job. All of their potential candidates are doing a bad job.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1990\" data-end=\"2016\">Looking Ahead to 2028<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2018\" data-end=\"2177\">Moore has been mentioned as a potential Democratic candidate for the 2028 presidential race. On the Republican side, Vice President JD Vance appears favored.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2179\" data-end=\"2566\">When NBC asked if Trump might \u201cpass the torch\u201d to him in 2028, Vance laughed and smiled:<br data-start=\"2267\" data-end=\"2270\" \/>\u201cAs you know, the president talks about everything. And if it\u2019s in the news, the president and I have certainly discussed it. But before we talk about anything three-and-a-half years down the road, let\u2019s take a break from politics, focus on governing, and later focus on the midterm elections.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-6\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-tags\"><\/div>\n<\/article>\n<div class=\"entry-footer\">\n<div class=\"share-icons\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-box clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trump\u2019s Bold Claim Donald Trump appears to have been caught in a major \u201clie\u201d after Maryland Governor Wes Moore publicly contradicted him.
