The president fumed that Maryland Gov. Wes Moore’s invitation to perform light cardio was “nasty and provocative.”

Donald Trump huffed and puffed online after Maryland Gov. Wes Moore challenged him to walk the streets of his state.

The 79-year-old president lashed out on Truth Social on Sunday at Moore’s “nasty and provocative” invitation three days earlier to join him for some light cardio in Baltimore, calling the city a “crime disaster” and threatening to deploy National Guard troops.

Trump was so angry about the public safety walk invitation that he suggested he may pull federal support for rebuilding the city’s Francis Scott Key Bridge, which collapsed last year.

    I’d like to see some women Democrats challenge him to other fitness activities.

    Considering he bragged that he could beat basically any woman at any sport, because men are just better.

    Hit him in his ego and his fragile masculinity.

    And hopefully God and a heart attack will do the rest

        I much prefer harm reduction to punishment. “Justice” is overrated, just let the monsters die and get out of the way as fast as possible.

            For your own sadistic pleasure? The only point of “making them suffer” is for the gratification of the torturer. I don’t take pleasure in pain, I just want them gone.

              Not for my pleasure. It serves as a warning to others who will only respond to fear. The stupid people. The “what are you gonna do about it” crowd.

                Severity of punishment doesn’t actually serve as an effective deterrent because nobody envisions themselves being caught.

      I think at this stage I would prefer something more concrete like a shit ton of snipers all shooting at him simultaneously so we can count on at least one round to do it’s job 👍

      Im no expert in bullets, but maybe something large calibre and could explode/fragment so would make a nasty mess of what passes for human flesh be in order and do the world a favour 😉

        Yeah, but that would make him a martyr.

        Him keeling over from a heart attack because AOC beat him in a foot race would really drain the swamp of a lot of toxic masculinity.
