Republicans are hopeful they have a shot at a traditionally blue Senate seat — thanks to former Gov. Larry Hogan’s announcement that he’ll run in Maryland. Stephanie Ruhle sits down with Hogan to talk about the state of the Republican party, reproductive rights, and his very public criticisms of Donald Trump.

Former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan continued his full-on sprint away from Donald Trump and his presidential campaign Thursday by awkwardly trying to reject the former president’s endorsement in his U.S. Senate race. Hogan is smart enough to know that Trump’s name hasn’t been particularly popular in Maryland, especially considering Trump’s disgusting comments about Baltimore in 2019.

And if the new ad Hogan dropped — called “Independent Leadership” — is any sign, Trump’s endorsement clearly has Hogan and his campaign playing defense. This became all the more obvious when Hogan was asked Thursday whether he rejects Trump’s endorsement. His evasive answer to WTOP reporter Nick Iannelli spoke volumes: Some brutal honesty from Hogan there, though I don’t think he understands how endorsements work.
