Trump Threatens Troops, Baltimore Wants Golf Cart Escort
President Trump, evidently auditioning for dictator roles, threatened to 'send in the troops' to Maryland after Gov. Wes Moore invited him for a 'public safety walk'—which Trump dodged like a golf pro avoiding rough bunkers. Moore clapped back, calling him 'President Bone Spurs' and offering a golf cart for easier strolling. Trump also floated cutting federal funds for Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge, even though Congress already signed off on the rebuild. Meanwhile, Baltimore's crime stats are dropping, leading Mayor Brandon Scott to urge Trump to 'turn off the right-wing propaganda' and check the facts before turning the charm all the way off.
