ABC Host Accepts Wes Moore's Spin: I'm a 'Loyalty Person,' So I Lied in Public #Political
Democrats know they can appear on the pro-Biden Sunday network shows and receive a gentle interview. On Sunday's This Week with George Stephanopoulos, regular co-host Martha Raddatz oh-so-gently asked Gov. Wes Moore (D-Md.) about the difference between his public and private stances on Joe Biden being forced out of the presidential race by his own party.
On D.C. sports radio ("The Sports Junkies") on Monday, the hosts discussed Moore showing up at the training camps of both the Baltimore Ravens and the Washington Commanders like a big fan, so he's good at this two-spins thing.
Maryland Governor Wes Moore admits he lied on TV in defending Biden’s well-being while privately telling Biden “the truth,” yet ABC’s @MarthaRaddatz doesn’t bat an eye and moves on to “pretty good news” in a big favorability jump for Harris. #ThisWeek pic.twitter.com/o2fVK9OLpN

RADDATZ: You had been a very strong supporter of Joe Biden staying in the race just a few days after that disastrous debate, saying he is not going to take himself out of the race, nor should he. Did your concerns grow as the weeks went on?
GOV. WES MOORE, (D) MARYLAND: Well, you know, I had private conversations with the president. And I – and I'm a big believer that when you care about somebody you tell them the truth. And I had private conversations where I was telling the president the truth.
Obviously, then, Moore is saying he doesn't care about the voters! But he's a politician, so loyalty to The Party comes first:
MOORE: I also know that the president deserved better than people who were running around him and going into public and demanding that the president of the United States step down, particularly when you look at the track record of the Biden-Harris administration. I've had a phenomenal partner in the Biden-Harris administration to be able to deliver the kind of results that we needed in Maryland. And so I knew that if I – if he said that he was going to continue pushing forward, that I was going to stand with him.
RADDATZ: But you said you told him the truth. What was the truth?
MOORE: Well, I think the truth that there are real concerns. There are real concerns that I know that people had felt, but also that people were telling me that they had felt.
I also know that, you know, I'm a loyalty person. And I believe that you can have proper conversations and tell people the truth and – and, you know, and be able to tell them what you’re hearing without also then turning around and – and publicly then trying to embarrass them.
Obviously, a growing pack of Democrats was trying to tell Biden the "truth" that he was going to elect Trump if he didn't exit the race.
For her part, Raddatz then merrily changed the subject to exciting polls for Kamala. She gently underlined Moore's two-faced behavior, and there was no need to dwell on it.
Later in the show, Raddatz repeatedly pushed Gov. Chris Sununu (R-N.H.) about how Donald Trump and J.D. Vance can't stick to "the issues," suggesting that calling Kamala a far-left extremist isn't on "the issues," and that Vance's 2021 comments about "childless cat ladies" is somehow recent.
