He does have a sense of humor that runs to childish taunts, but, unlike prominent Democrats who apparently have their entire Party’s approval, he has refrained from calling people terrorists, calling for riots, and calling for murders. He also is much, much more gently spoken than most of the Democrats at the national level. Because he followed through on the promises made to me by both parties for the last forty years, I like him. Nothing at all performative about writing an op-ed declaring you are not running for a nomination you know you can’t win and then making the rounds on the Sunday talks to complain about the Republican Party and its voters who clearly prefer pretty much anyone over you.įor those keeping track at home, there are currently three declared candidates for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination: former president Donald Trump, former governor of South Carolina and former UN ambassador Nikki Haley, and conservative entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy.Īre you sure Hogan is not a Chinese wh*re? Because he sure sounds like a Chinese wh*re.ĭonald Trump’s speeches are crammed with policy plans, and when he gets a chance, he follows through. These are just empty calories that can’t sustain the lasting governing coalition necessary to restore America. But many in the Republican Party falsely believe that the best way to reach these voters is through more angry, performative politics and bigger government. Hogan also appears to be taking a swipe at Florida governor Ron DeSantis, who has not (yet?) declared his candidacy.Īn encouraging trend for Republican politics lies in the fact that the excesses of progressive elites have created the opportunity to attract more working-class voters from all different backgrounds. ![]() "That would be bad for the party and bad for the country," Hogan tells CBS News' /tgLfFFRQYg Trump recapture the nomination.įormer Maryland warns that Republicans nominating former President Donald Trump for a third time would be a "train wreck."

To once again be a successful governing party, we must move on from Mr. Trump as our nominee and suffer defeat for the fourth consecutive election cycle. And while I’m optimistic about the future of the Republican Party, I am deeply concerned about this next election. Republican voters are growing tired of the drama and are open to new leadership. A cult of personality is no substitute for a party of principle. For too long, Republican voters have been denied a real debate about what our party stands for beyond loyalty to Mr. In 2020, the party didn’t even bother passing a campaign platform. Since Donald Trump won the nomination in 2016, I have fought to make clear that our party cannot be successful if we put personality before principle, if our elected officials are afraid to say publicly what they freely admit behind closed doors, and if we can’t learn from our mistakes because of the political cost of admitting facts to be true. Hogan’s unnecessary thud of an announcement appears to be primarily a vehicle to freely admit he’s unelectable in a GOP primary in order to bash Trump and his tens of millions of supporters. And that is why I will not be seeking the Republican nomination for president. ![]() I have long said that I care more about ensuring a future for the Republican Party than securing my own future in the Republican Party. I would never run for president to sell books or position myself for a cabinet role.
