Governors' Troll Wars: Reaping Rewards

Governors from different states are engaging in troll wars, crossing state lines to score political points and amplify their agendas to a national audience. This trend has been fueled by the hyper-partisan politics of the Trump era, with governors using mean-spirited digs as fundraising pitches and television hits. The attacks on other states' governors have become more personalized, with billboards and pithy remarks being used to shore up support at home and position themselves for higher office. The competition between governors has taken on a harsher tone, even extending to friendly wagers over sports championships.
