Along with the rest of the country’s governors, Gov. Wes Moore of Maryland and Gov. Jared Polis of Colorado are expected to be in Washington today for the annual meeting of the National Governors Association. But President Donald Trump has said he won’t be inviting Moore, the country’s only Black governor, or Polis, who’s gay, to Saturday’s dinner event at the White House. Trump has a history of racist and homophobic rhetoric and behavior, but his exclusion of these two governors from an event that’s been open to all governors is a new and dangerous low even for him.
