context: Of course he will, because it’s a fucking cult. Never ever trust a Republican to do the right thing for the country or democracy. It’s red team all day long. >
  
  Absolutely.  "To the surprise of absolutely nobody, Republican says they'll vote for the Republican nominee no matter who it is or what they've done". >
  
  And so it begins again.
  Think the country learned its lesson last time?  Think again. >
  
  “Moderate” republicans only find their morals when they retire, seeing as Hogan still wants future political office of course he immorally will support a guy he has repeatedly said is trash >
  
  There's no such thing as "moderate" Republicans.  People like Hogan on appear moderate because they had to deal with Democratic supermajorities who could override his vetoes.
  And the MD legislature overrode a lot of Hogan vetoes. >
  
  Yup, things we accomplished in Maryland happened despite his vetos >
  
  What a two faced slimeball. I almost fell for his "country before party" bullshit. There really is no such thing as a "good Republican" >
  
  It's assholes all the way down... >
  
  This guy fooled a lot of people. >
  
  
  This guy fooled a lot of people.
  
  Because he was from extremely Blue Maryland and needed to pretend not to be an evil dirt bag piece of shit to get elected in his state. Now that he'll be attempting to appeal to the entire country full of right wing nazi lunatics he doesn't have to pretend not to be a dirt bag anymore. In fact openly being a dirt bag helps his chances of getting elected. >
  
  Man. Sad to see this. I thought he was one of the sane ones.
  I know Hogan is walking a tightrope here, but anything less than a full-on rebuke of Trump is unacceptable. The POS tried to overthrow our country FFS! I can’t believe he’s actually able to run again after the BS he pulled. >
  
  He fooled you >
  
  
  "Yeah, I just don’t think [Trump will] be the nominee, but I’ll support the nominee,” Hogan said, after being prodded by Hewitt about his evasiveness on the question.
  
  Props for not lying but thumbs down for horrible judgment. >
  
  These people are absolutely fucking spineless. It is so pathetic. >
  
  Fuck you, Larry Hogan. This is how we ended up in this shit in the first place. 
  Hogan remembers having to scrap with Trump and other governors for COVID supplies because Trump and Jared's supply chain planning was fucked and invoking the Defense Production Act would be "too commy." 
  How many of Hogan's own constituents died because Trump is a fucking loon?
  But he will kowtow and kiss the ring because the Republican cult-ure has trained it's adherents that the WORST Republican is better than the BEST Democrat.
  Trump took that challenge and became the worst Republican. 
  In January 2017 he had united control of the federal government. Five years and two impeachments later, Republicans lost and barely regained the House, lost the Senate TWICE, and are engaging in circular firing squads as MAGA v. Establishment rips the party in twain.
  All the while Trump is grifting off his base, getting bribed by the Saudi's, and siphoning donor cash from the rest of the party.
  Hogan would support that just because of the R next to the name? What a fucking potato.
  
  Hogan also reiterated that he was “seriously considering” a campaign for president, telling Hewitt he would make a decision on it fairly soon.  
  ....  
  Hogan’s view on the 2024 Republican primary: the more, the merrier.  
  “I think the more voices, the more people out there, the better,” 
  Hogan said. “Especially some people that have executive experience.”

  Go fuck yourself AGAIN, Larry Hogan. Trump scrapped his way to the nomination in '16 because the field was crowded. If you and Pence and Pompey and Cristie and Hayley and Desantis crowd it again then Trump--who has a lock on the single biggest block of Republican voters--will be the nominee again. >
  
  If Trump is the nominee they're all going to fall in line. Nobody should delude themselves into thinking the GOP is suddenly going to grow a spine and stand up to him. Fucking Mitch McConnell, who said Trump was responsible for what happened on January 6, said he would support him like... 12 hours later. Literally the only thing I trust a Republican to do is vote Republican. >
  
  
  Literally the only thing I trust a Republican to do is vote Republican.
  
  Or be caught doing the thing they're most vocally against. >
  
  A week ago I would have said that he's the Republican party's path back to respectability. I voted against him twice and will do so a third time if he wins the nomination, but he at least seemed pragmatic enough to GOVERN.
  Guess not.
  I could see this stupid country electing President Hogan, but it won't be Larry. >
  
  Any way to convince moderate Democrats to get their heads out their asses and stop electing Republican governors? >
  
  And there it is. >
  
  So Hogan's another GOP white supremacist.
  Is anyone surprised? >
  
  After he made such a big deal about not voting for Trump in 2020... >
  
  Behold, the "moderate" Republican. >
  
  Most cowardly bunch of 'alpha males' I ever saw... >
  
  Very bad choice Hogan. I suspect he will regret saying this...wait regret requires humanity.  Nevermind. >
  
  Pathetic coward.  It's always party over country for a Republican. >
  
  And everybody keeps fucking telling me this guy is a "reasonable republican" and a "Good man." Fuck Larry Hogan. >
  
  Oh, for Christ's sake! I'm sure Baker will mimic this inane sentiment soon. >
  
  Hello, all you Democrats who championed this idiot for the last six years. >
  
  A Trump loyalist backed him into a corner with the question trying to gotcha him. He said he didn't think Trump would be the nominee, but that he would vote for the GOP nominee. If he had said anything else his aspirations would have been over before they started. >
  
  Courageous >
  
  So glad this lump is no longer Governor of MD. I used to think he had a brain, but it is clear now that he's fallen victim to the brain suckers from Futurama. >
  
  of course he will.  And that's why I never voted for him (and wouldn't vote for him if he ran himself). >
  
  Disappointing. I thought Hogan was one of the decent ones. >
  
  Spoiler alert! There are no decent Republicans. >
  
  It's all relative. I mean you could easily say there are no good politicians. >
  
  I thought Hogan was one of the few remaining sane GOP leaders among us. >
  
  And still, people keep telling me that the GOP has moved past Trump, doesn't want Trump, and that there's a real plurality of anti-Trump republicans like, checks notes... Larry Hogan who wouldn't want him back in power. >
  
  And it begins... >
  
  Larry Hogan says he is going to torpedo his chances of winning a national election.
