A former Republican Maryland governor appeared on Fox Business to complain about Donald Trump's drag on his U.S. Senate campaign.

Larry Hogan is running against one of Vice President Kamala Harris' dear friends, Angela Alsobrooks. But the polls haven't been great for Hogan, whom Trump has endorsed.

Speaking to Neil Cavuto, Hogan explained, "I just really think we've got to focus on the issues and kind of avoid all of this gender-race kind of wild attacks." ...

Sometimes party loyalty demands too much.

That's the word from Maryland Republican Senate hopeful Larry Hogan, who cited former President John F. Kennedy in his campaign ad, which was released Monday and notably snubbed former President Donald Trump.

Trump apparently isn't holding a grudge against the former Maryland governor, despite needling MAGA when Hogan notably broke from GOP by refusing to criticize Trump's trial as rigged and instead pleading for "all Americans to respect the verdict." ...

Donald Trump isn't holding a grudge against former Gov. Larry Hogan despite needling MAGA when he notably broke from GOP orthodoxy that castigated Trump's rigged trial to plea for "all Americans to respect the verdict."

"Former President Trump tells me he’s ENDORSING @GovLarryHogan for Senate, despite Hogan’s comments that people should 'respect the verdict' in the NY hush money trial," Fox News Congressional correspondent Aisha Hasnie wrote on X.

Matthew Dowd, who previously worked for George W. Bush's campaigns, appeared on MSNBC on Sunday to discuss Trump's bid to unseat President Joe Biden. The host began by discussing Trump's guilty verdicts and their impact on the race.

The host then drew attention to former Republican Governor of Maryland, Larry Hogan, and his response to the verdicts. He suggested the country should respect law and order, and therefore the jury's decision in the case in which Trump was convicted of 34 felonies for business records violations....

Former President Donald Trump's conviction in the felony hush payment case in Manhattan predictably led to a firestorm of condemnation and recriminations against the legal system by Republican officeholders across the country — but in some cases, it also led to a civil war against the few Republicans who had any words of caution.

That was laid bare vividly on Thursday for former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, now the Republican nominee for Senate in that state.

"Regardless of the result, I urge all Americans to respect the verdict and the legal process," Hogan posted to X that afternoon.
