Trone and Alsobrooks have had several joint appearances, such as this recent one at Leisure World in Silver Spring.

But I am very annoyed that Trone won't commit to a professional televised debate.


Trone’s flat refusal to debate really turns me off, and I will not be voting for him.


Trone canceled a scheduled debate with Alsobrooks today. He had a plausible excuse (illness), but it is looking suspicious after he refused to do the televised debate last week.

He was literally in the hospital.

Before labeling him, why not try to see what he has tried to do in Congress? He has been a huge advocate for mental health and drug addiction issues, having experienced the death of his nephew form a drug overdose.

My interactions when needing help from his office were great. On top of the request, responsive and solving the issue on a timely basis. This is in contrast with my needing help from Congressmen Raskin's office which did not go as well nor were there as responsive. We got switched from Trone to Raskin due to redistricting.

I would much rather have someone who is charge and knows how to get things done. Who cares if they have money or not?


+1 this was my experience too with Trone’s office vs. Raskin’s. The responsiveness of Trone’s office was far better and more professional. That starts at the top.


+1 this is fact. Trone’s office immediately responded to my problem when Raskin’s was dismissive. This may be that Trone just hired better people but it does say something!

Raskin has bad constituent service, but people make excuses for it because he’s a liberal champion. I’d rather he spent less time on TV and more time helping residents with passports and VA benefits.

The Maryland Democratic Party closing ranks is not an endorsement. Otherwise we’d have had Governor Brown and Governor Kennedy-Townsend.

Trone couldn’t even get the Post endorsement

This type of vote makes sense for governor, not for senate where you are handing control to a party whose extremists deny that Jan 6 happened and are threatening IVF and repro rights around the country. A vote for Hogan means another vote for R playbook; one lone senator cannot dictate party policy.


Are you really that blind to reality, or just cynically trying to twist facts to manipulate people?

David Troons is great. David Troon is legend. If you don’t like him, you are a 💩 person and we are better off as a human race without you.

They’re falling in line behind the Democratic Party’s fealty to identity group politics. That’s how we ended up with Kamala Harris.

He certainly is one of my top choices.



He's a spoiled rich boy who already bought himself one political seat. I hope he isn’t able to buy himself another

Trone is now airing an ad with a bunch of PG county politicians endorsing him. I don't know anything about politics there and how prominent these people are, but kind of curious why all these folks wouldn't be supporting Alsobrooks. Maybe Trone promised them something like a job in his Senate office if he wins, but are there really that many jobs to fill when you're a Senator?

Her main accomplishments are privatizing schools and enacting curfews when kids act up. That’s it.

Or maybe because they know and work with Alsobrooks and are underwhelmed by her.
