Larry Hogan: "i will NOT be running for POTUS", focus instead on helping retain "the soul of the GOP", i'm a "small businessman not career politician"

[basquebromance]

he says half his family were against the run, and that played into it. he may be dull but he would have been an effective Reagan-like executive if elected

Hogan is a loser.

 

[Polishprince]

He apparently doesn't have very many donors, so its sort of pointless for Mr. Hogan to spend this summer kissing ugly babies and shaking greasy hands in an Iowa cornfield.

Hogan's complete failure in last fall's Maryland state election shows his inability to sell Republicanism to the masses.

Hogan was a good Governor but had no chance of the MAGA vote
He needs to remain the voice of the non-crazy wing of the Republican Party

Complete failure is right! Most Maryland Republicans (me for one) heartily dislike RINO Hogan, the Trump-hater in a state where the Trump signs fly freely everywhere except the black enclaves of crime our tax money supports.

Apparently, the people of Maryland- who had to endure Hogan's reign- didn't think so.

They opted to go for the other party, based on Hogan's record.

Hogan was a Republican who could win in a Blue State like Maryland

He did a good job

No, he didn't, the putz. He was a worthless, negative RINO. The only way Hogan could stay ahead in Maryland was to turn into a Democrat and do nothing at all about the total ever-worsening catastrophe that is Baltimore.

Hogan was Republican Governor of a Blue State who was elected twice. The second time by a wide margin

A MAGA Republican could not govern Maryland….Hogan could

I think all the hopefuls are coming to a realization that there's no way to break through Trump's popularity.
That's especially true for DeSantis who is trying to become the mini-Trump.

That's a strategy that is doomed to failure and so DeSantis is either going to drop out or try something that contrasts with Trump's appeal.

For those who still maintain that DeSantis isn't interested in the presidency? It's a facesaver if they can stick with it for a while!

Yet , they refused to vote for Hogan's handpicked successor.

Tells me that they weren't that enchanted after 8 years of the Living Hell he put them through.

84 million voters broke through Trumps popularity

Yeah, we voted for the Trump guy, not Hogan's put-up stupid RINO candidate, whatever her name was. And so because Maryland Republicans love Trump, Dan Cox won the primary but then the gubernatorial election was won by, of course, some miscellaneous black Democrat, who will presumably be hauled away by the FBI like the last three black Baltimore mayors.

No, he couldn't. He just sat there and did nothing while Baltimore burned.

Can't blame anyone for not wanting to get in the mud with the orange pig.

Go near him, and you're stained.

A “Trump guy” is not going to win in Maryland
You needed a moderate and instead handed the state back to the Democrats. You should have listened to Hogan

Guess you showed them

This is the first time I've ever heard of him.

Must have been real hard to decide not to run for something you had zero chance of getting. On a side note I want to announce I will NOT be in the running to quarterback for the Chiefs this season.
