Maryland Gov. Wes Moore Running For Reelection, Dispelling 2028 White House Rumors

Maryland Gov. Wes Moore announced Tuesday that he will run for a second term, pushing back on speculation that he was preparing a 2028 presidential bid.

Moore, a Democrat, made the announcement in a video highlighting achievements from his first term, including reductions in crime and progress for the middle class.

He also emphasized his Maryland roots and dismissed suggestions that he was looking to enter Washington’s political arena.

“The games of Washington are exhausting, and worse, are hurting people,” Moore says in the video. “I’m not from that world.”

Moore — who has been waging a high-profile war with President Donald Trump over his law-and-order crackdown — jetted off to George Clooney’s lavish Lake Como estate in Italy, where he was photographed lounging shirtless aboard the movie star’s yacht with his wife, Dawn.

The 46-year-old Democrat, often touted as one of his party’s rising stars, looked relaxed and carefree as he soaked up the Mediterranean sun, sipping drinks and chatting with Dawn as the couple enjoyed a glamorous escape far from Baltimore’s crime-plagued streets, the UK’s Daily Mail reported.

The sighting comes as Trump slams Democratic leaders for failing to keep cities safe. A White House spokesman ripped Moore’s getaway, telling the Daily Mail: “Baltimore’s residents can’t escape gunshots and crime while Wes Moore flies to Lake Como to hang out with the Democrat elite.”

“Maybe he should stay there, because he surely isn’t getting anything done in Annapolis,” the source added.
