He was ousted from power following the conclusion of the Rakeoian Civil War, and shortly after succumbed to underlying health issues while in exile.

Moreno Salinas oversaw aid to the Romerist cause in 1937. He later set up the Governmental Committee on Miguelist Subversion to begin surveillance of labor movements like the nascent Red Eagle group. In 1939, he signed the War Production act, which criminalized activities that interfered with production in agriculture or other war-vital materials. It was blasted by critics as a way to avoid engagement with legitimate concerns of unions and workers pushed to their limit by rationing.
