Max Miller gets married at former president’s Bedminster golf course in MAGA wedding 

Former President Donald Trump on Saturday used a wedding speech on Saturday to announce that he plans to endorse one of his on-off Republican foes Mike DeWine, who is running to retain his position as Ohio governor.

It marks a turnaround for Trump who based DeWine as a ‘terrible, terrible guy’ at a rally in the state in April.

And he previously steered clear of offering any endorsement as DeWine – one of the first senior Republicans to admit that Joe Biden had won the 2020 election, and who was criticized by others in the party for his robust pandemic lockdown measures – faced Trumpy rivals in the party primary.

But on Saturday, in typically unconventional fashion, the former used a wedding at his New Jersey golf club to announce that all was forgiven.

An attendee at Bedminster Golf Club said, his speech praised groom Max Miller, a former aide who is now running for an Ohio House seat.

‘He told Max let your governor know I’m going to support him and he trashed the Democratic candidate, who was mayor and was nasty to him when he visited Ohio,’ said the guest.

‘He said to Max, let him know I’m going to be backing him all the way.’

The decision comes after DeWine secured the party nomination in May.

He fought off three challengers who positioned themselves to his right and who desperately courted Trump.

Although the former president avoided endorsing anyone, he made clear his disdain for the incumbent.  

10 days before the primary, while stumping for Republican candidates in Ohio, he laid into DeWine. 

‘No matter what happened, we had this terrible governor that you had. Terrible, terrible guy,’ said Trump. ‘And he was fighting us.’

Former Trump aide and Ohio House candidate Max Miller married at Trump’s Bedminster National Golf Club over the weekend in a wedding that even featured an address from the former president. 

Miller, 33, married Emily Moreno, 28, the daughter and former campaign manager of Bernie Moreno, who dropped out of the GOP race for Ohio’s Senate seat in February. 

Miller and Moreno had gotten engaged last year. Miller won the GOP primary for Ohio’s 7th District seat in May after joining the race in an attempt to defeat Rep. Anthony Gonzalez, R, for his vote to impeach Trump. Gonzalez later announced retirement. 

Miller and Moreno both grew up in the Cleveland area, he in the affluent Shaker Heights suburb and she in Westlake. Miller is an heir of the prominent Forest City Enterprises real estate company and Moreno is the daughter of a luxury auto dealer-turned-Senate candidate who suspended his campaign in February after meeting with Trump. 

The pair met while working on Sen. Marco Rubio’s presidential campaign in 2015. They dated briefly before parting ways when Miller left to work on Trump’s campaign and Moreno left to work for Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wisc. They rekindled when Moreno left Johnson to work for a Washington, D.C.-based public affairs firm.

Since then, Moreno has created a dating app for Trump supporters and worked for her father’s Senate campaign while making appearances with Miller throughout his campaign. 

The wedding was loaded with right-wing political powerhouses, including former acting Director of National Intelligence Ric Grenell, former Trump advisor KellyAnne Conway and even Trump himself. 

Maintaining close ties to the former president, Miller scored an enthusiastic Trump endorsement in his race.

Moreno and Miller got engaged last year after his messy relationship with Stephanie Grisham came to an end 

Miller previously dated Stephanie Grisham, the former White House press secretary. Their relationship came to an end in 2020

Miller previously dated Stephanie Grisham, the former White House press secretary. Their relationship came to an end in 2020 when Miller pushed Grisham up against a wall and slapped her after she accused him of cheating on her, sources told Politico. Grisham originally declined to comment on the allegations and Miller denied the assault allegations. 

In October 2021 Grisham, 46, wrote an op-ed for the Washington Post claiming that the Trumps ‘didn’t seem to care’ when she told them her relationship with Miller had turned ‘abusive.’ 

Miller then filed a libel suit against Grisham.
