Maryland Officials To Blast Rep. David Trone Over 'Low-Level' Comment
HuffPost
Two dozen local elected officials are calling out Trone for describing some people who support county executive Angela Alsobrooks as 'low-level' in a TV interview.
A slew of Maryland officials plan to go on the offensive against Rep. David Trone, a contender for the state’s open Senate seat, after he referred to supporters of his Democratic primary opponent as “low-level.”
Trone made the comments during an NBC segment on Wednesday comparing Trone and his chief rival, Prince George’s County Executive Angela Alsobrooks.
“The people that know [Prince George’s County] the best, ironically, all came to us,” Trone told an NBC reporter of his primary endorsers.
“But not a majority,” the reporter countered.
“The people in Prince George’s County who stuck with her are the low-level folks,” Trone said. “The top-level folks — that’s called the attorney general, I think. I think that’s called the state’s attorney — I think. I think that’s called the senior [state] senator — I think. I think they’re the top-level folks.”
