Gov. Wes Moore (D-MA) heaped praise on Democratic kingmaker Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC) at a high-profile South Carolina dinner.

Moore insists he has no intentions to run for president in 2028, but his appearance at the dinner is sure to add to speculation. As the keynote speaker at the Democrats’ 2025 Blue Palmetto Dinner at the South Carolina State Fairgrounds in Columbia, Moore hailed Clyburn, an essential figure in a hypothetical presidential run.
