President Donald Trump met with Russian president Vladimir Putin in Alaska on Friday, amid the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. Moran applauded Trump for meeting with Putin in person.
“I appreciate the fact that President Trump is going to sit down with him face to face,” Moran said. “Because I think that’s going to help to communicate how serious President Trump is about achieving peace in the region there in Europe and how, Putin needs to back off of what he’s doing presently and to put a pause on all that he intends to do even in the future, because, frankly, I don’t think he intended to stop with Ukraine.”
Moran also commented on the Republican effort to redistrict Texas to have more Republican seats in the U.S. Congress and how Texas Democrats have broke quorum, halting work in the State Legislature. He suggested that Texas Democrats will have to come back to the state in order to continue the work of the Texas Legislature.
“It’s a state negotiation. It’s a state matter that they’re going to have to decide. They’re going to have to incentivize those folks somehow probably to come back or frankly, just continue to stand firm ground until they realize they can’t stay out of the state forever,” Moran said. “They’ve got to come back and deal with the legislative business of the people here in the state of Texas and that’s their responsibility.”
East Texans can expect to hear more from KETK’s interview with Moran in an upcoming episode of East Texas In Focus.
