Republican Gov. Larry Hogan predicted that Donald Trump wouldn't run for president in 2024.
Hogan said it would be bad for the country if Trump were the nominee.
Hogan said that it would be bad for the party and bad for the country. I would advise him not to run, because I don't think he's gonna run.
Hogan was asked if he would run for president in 2024. Hogan's second and final term as Maryland's governor will end in January 2022.
Hogan said he would take a look at what options were after he was governor.
It is not known if Trump will run for president in 2024. While he left the presidency with the lowest approval ratings of his term, he has maintained control over the Republican party, with some Republicans saying they can't be successful without Trump.
Hogan has criticized the former president and those in his party who have refused to cut ties with him.
Hogan said in a May interview on "Meet the Press" that Republicans who refuse to criticize Trump are concerned about retaliation. They're worried about being attacked. I don't understand why you have to swear fealty to the 'Dear Leader' or be kicked out of the party. It doesn't make sense.
Hogan mocked Trump's 2020 performance in Maryland after the former president endorsed the rival to Hogan's preferred candidate to replace him as Maryland governor.
Hogan said he would prefer endorsements from people who didn't lose Maryland by 33 points.
