Hogan: Trump challenge now ‘doesn’t make any sense at all’
While Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan isn’t completely ruling out a potential primary challenge to President Donald Trump, he says that currently ” it doesn’t make any sense at all. ”
Hogan spoke to reporters Thursday with former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, a Hogan friend who is in Maryland for a book promotion. Christie says he doesn’t see a political path at the moment for challenging the president in the primary, because of Trump’s approval ratings among Republicans.
Still, Hogan says it’s unknown ” what that might look like several months from now. ”
In November, Hogan became only the second Republican governor to win re-election in Maryland. Christie says he’s unsure what Hogan’s future will be in the GOP, but that he’s confident ” it’s going to be a really bright one nationally. ”
