Trump hosts governors' breakfast as NGA withdraws from White House gathering

President Donald Trump hosts a White House governors’ breakfast after the National Governors Association pulls out of its annual meeting over his exclusion of two Democratic governors, Jared Polis of Colorado and Wes Moore of Maryland. The move highlights ongoing partisan tensions even as governors from both parties meet to discuss policy, and underscores Trump’s confrontational approach toward state leaders while some governors push for limited presidential power and bipartisan dialogue. The event set against potential 2028 presidential considerations among governors.
