David John Trone (born September 21, 1955) is an American politician and businessman who served as the U.S. representative for Maryland's 6th congressional district from 2019 to 2025. The district includes most of the western third of the state, but the bulk of its population is in the outer northern suburbs of Washington, D.C. Trone founded and co-owns Total Wine & More with his brother, Robert L. Trone, and served as the company's president until December 2016. In 2016, Trone spent more than $13 million of his own money on his unsuccessful Democratic primary campaign to succeed Chris Van Hollen in Maryland's 8th congressional district, setting a record for the most expensive self-funded House campaign. In 2018, Trone was the Democratic nominee for the 6th district and won the general election to succeed John Delaney. Trone made mental health issues and fighting addiction a top priority during his tenure in Congress, where he co-chaired the Bipartisan Addiction and Mental Health Task Force. Trone announced his candidacy for the United States Senate in the 2024 election to succeed Ben Cardin. Trone spent over $60 million of his own money to support his campaign. On May 14, 2024, he was defeated in the Democratic primary by Prince George's County executive Angela Alsobrooks. In 2026, Trone again ran for Congress in Maryland's 6th congressional district, but was defeated in the Democratic primary by his successor, April McClain Delaney.
