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.
