Wes Moore

So I have conversations with the President of the United States.

Patrick, that honestly, that was weird to me.

Because I like and I and I think about it where, listen, there are governors.

Did you say something that something prompted or.

And so what happened was with that, which was really weird, is that there are governors who like to spend a whole lot more time.

And, you know, they are like going after him every single day.

That's not me.

Because I'm just like, listen, if you come after my people, if you say something against the folks in Maryland, will I respond?

Absolutely.

That's my job.

I'm the chief executive of my state, right?

But I don't spend all day long focusing on the president.

Like I'm too busy.

I got to make sure that I'm fighting for my folks, right?

And so when I got personally disinvited, I was like,

what did I say?

Like, there are other governors who are coming at your neck every day.

I'm not, like, what did I do?

And so I did not understand it.

And honestly, it wasn't a big deal to me because I'm not that interested in going to fancy dinners anyway.
