Other governors should show solidarity and boycott the NGA's White House dinner. Thoughts?

Trump only invited Republican governors.

It was supposed to be an NGA event, like every president and year before.

All governors of both parties should refuse to attend if two are not invited

Trump only invited Republican governors.


So, Trump’s event should be named the Republican Governors Association (RGA) dinner, not the National Governors Association dinner.

You do get that he’s a white (Christian) nationalist, right? In his mind, the invite list IS “National” — or at least the “National” that he’s trying to build.

Of the seven swing states that put him in the White House in 2024, five have Democratic governors. How does he feel about them?

Wes Moore is being excluded from a bipartisan NGA dinner for governors and spouses, along with Gov. Jared Polis of Colorado. I’m wondering why exclude these two but not Newsom.

The meeting … will only include Republican governors.

Mr. Trump is still planning to hold a separate, bipartisan dinner for governors and their spouses at the White House as part of the N.G.A. activities, but he personally blocked invites for two Democrats: Gov. Wes Moore of Maryland and Gov. Jared Polis of Colorado.

What was the fake reason given? Is Gavin Newsom invited?

“Only Republicans” is problematic too. WTF is wrong with you?! MAGA is so unAmerican, such garbage.

And no doubt he will slavishly praise his dear leader and parrot some fake reason.

Sorry...I was thinking of Tim Scott. 🤦‍♀️

I’m really sick of people not showing solidarity.

Correct - nobody should go.
Everyone should walk out of the press conference when Trump verbally attacks women.
Colleges should band together.
Law firms should band together.

It will be a travesty if anyone shows up. We need to stop normalizing bully behavior.

Who is "They"? Link it, or shut it.
