Gov. Lawrence J. Hogan Jr. (R) on Monday urged President Trump to accept defeat in the 2020 election and criticized the federal government response to the COVID-19 pandemic that’s once again raging across the country and in Maryland ? and cast himself as a common sense White House candidate for 2024 in the mold of President Reagan.
In comments at the Ronald Reagan Institute, Hogan never directly addressed the question of whether he would run for president in 2024, but fielded questions about how he would navigate a Republican presidential primary and about the future of the GOP.
During a 20-minute address and a 35-minute Q&A session, Hogan said an “exhausted majority” of Americans are looking for less divisiveness in their political leaders.
