Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan: Trump ‘at his lowest point ever’

ANNAPOLIS, Md. — Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, a Republican weighing a 2024 White House bid, said Monday he believes former President Donald Trump is “at his lowest point ever,” as the House Jan. 6 committee wrapped up its investigation into what Hogan described as “one of the darkest days in American history.”

In an interview with The Associated Press shortly before the committee released its recommendations, Hogan said he believes the former president should be held accountable, after he “inflamed kind of a riotous mob to go attack the seat of our democracy.” However, the outgoing, term-limited governor was not specific about how Trump should be held accountable.

“The people that try to whitewash Jan. 6 as if nothing happened are delusional. It was an assault on democracy,” he said.

Later in the day, the House committee urged the Justice Department to bring criminal charges against Trump and his allies, wrapping up its investigation of the violent 2021 Capitol insurrection with what lawmakers called a “roadmap to justice.”

Worse than Pearl Harbor or 9/11.

And yet President Trump is still leaps and bounds better than any politician.

Guess what, Larry, you scrofulous toad ...

At his lowest, Trump is higher than you will ever be. Don’t let jealousy eat you up.

Hogan is a POS period. Cancer should have taken his liberal fat ass out. He wasn’t even close to being a RINO.

He said one of. He didn’t say darkest of all times. Go back and reread it.

Well, Trump endorsed McCarthy for Speaker, but most of us will forgive him for that, event though we don’t want any more RINOs leading the party. Hogan is just another RINO, who should change his party to Dem.

At least Trump WAS president, something Hogan will never be.

Hogan must have evidence that the J6 committee failed to find, where the committee found nothing worth charging Trump with. Watch out for Hogan. He’s got the goods on Trump.
