Rabidly anti-Trump Gov. Larry Hogan (R-MD) appeared on Sunday’s Face The Nation on CBS where he flirted with a presidential run in 2024. He also bashed Republicans angered over election fraud claims in previous elections.

Fox News reports:

Host Major Garrett observed that the term-limited governor had recently traveled to Iowa and New Hampshire and asked, “When are you announcing your 2024 bid?”

Hogan quipped, “Maybe this morning,” before demurring, “I’m just going to finish my term as governor.” The governor suggested that he has been merely going to New Hampshire to “help the House Republican caucus up there.”

When asked if he had been looking “very seriously” at a presidential run, Hogan responded, “I think that’s probably an exaggeration,” later acknowledging he is taking a “lukewarm maybe, lukewarm” approach to considering his prospects.

Regarding Republicans nominating pro-Trump Dan Cox for governor of Maryland over Hogan’s failed moderate candidate, CBS asked him if he’d endorse Cox in the General Election.

“No, I’m not nominating anybody in the race,” Hogan said. “I’ve made it very clear that this guy should not be the nominee and he shouldn’t be governor. But I’m not getting involved in endorsing in the race.

He said, “I think if the Republicans are to get any power back, we’re going to have to start talking about the issues people care about and not re-litigating what happened in 2020 or denying things that are fact.”
