Republican Ex-Gov. says his party's 2024 presidential contenders are Trump's 'enablers'
Hogan's remarks, which he made while speaking on ABC's This Week in an interview on Sunday, went as far as calling some of the candidates"enablers" of former President Donald Trump.Former GOP Gov. Larry Hogan says it’s “absurd” that so many of the Republican presidential candidates will not speak out against former Pres. Trump following his federal indictment.
"If you are not going to challenge him, why challenge him?” https://t.co/1bH9dmdWlG pic.twitter.com/ij5z1jzAygThe panel focused its criticisms on candidates who have voiced support for Trump in light of his 37-count criminal indictment last week for his handling of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago residence.
"We’ve got 11, 12 challengers out there that aren’t challenging him,” Hogan told the panel."And they’re sort of enablers and just making excuses. I don’t see anyone saying, ‘Why should we move on from Donald Trump?’ — with the exception of Chris Christie and maybe Asa Hutchinson, two of my former colleagues, both of whom are tough prosecutors and former U.S. attorneys that are thinking about it more seriously than some of the others.
