Wes Moore

[Anonymous]

He'll be more like Hogan than Jealous, but not for future aspirations, but for the simple fact he realizes that's what gets business to flourish in the state, to save Baltimore and to make MD more competitive.

Sorry activists.

Hogan hated Baltimore.

That’s probably going to be the key differentiator between the two. The outcome of that is that Montgomery County will be the cash machine for fiscal transfers to Baltimore. Wes Moore also doesn’t really care about MoCo. The entire political leadership backed Perez or stood on the fence (ahem, Riemer), Perez won the county and there’s no way he’s going to lose votes from the county is a reelection campaign. Conversely, Hogan won a much higher vote share in the county than expected and did a lot to force along progress on critical infrastructure that the county has had its head in the sand on for a couple decades. In summary, there will be a substantial reduction in available transportation funding for the county so there will be no backtracking on Hogans PPP plan for the ALB and 270 (although maybe some 270 design changes) and the county should not count on state support for anything else, such as the unfunded Bethesda bike tunnel that now probably won’t be realized for at least another decade. Any hope for state grant eligibility for MCPS school construction and capital improvements, because all of those resources will be directed to Baltimore. Economic development grants? Again, Baltimore. Etc, etc. The main difference between now and the past is that Montgomery County can no longer afford to be the cash machine for the state government. So good times ahead.

Hogan hated Montgomery County too. He just hated Baltimore more.

Hogan wants to be president, too. How's that going?

I’m not sure how a Republican that repudiated Trump’s Presidential ambition is relevant. He was re-elected by large margins and has extremely large favorability in the state, which means that he’s widely popular with Democrats.

Your post indicates that you are a prime candidate for disappointment.

Hogan will never be president.

The rest of the country has no idea who he is.

And Maga controls the party he is not MAGA.

Hogan is the same as the rest of republicans, he's no better. His kid isn't either.

No republcian should ever be elected again full stop. Treason.

That’s the point. But a “Hogan Democrat” could certainly become President.

Hogan is a Republican who would rather vote uselessly for a dead Republican than vote for a Democrat to beat a MAGA candidate. There's no such thing as a Hogan Democrat. Could a Democrat who voted for Hogan become president? That seems unlikely, purely on a numbers basis.

There is no such thing as a “Hogan Democrat”? Then who was voting for his landslide reelection victory in a state that is overwhelmingly Democratic? Don’t need Scooby Doo to solve that mystery.

There are certainly Democratic voters who voted for Hogan, but to describe a Democratic candidate/elected official as a Hogan Democrat is stupid.

Hogan is not going to be president, and Moore is not going to be Hogan.

They said the same thing about me

Signed Jimmy Carter.

"They" who? Whoever "they" are, they also said it about a lot of people who, in fact, did not become president.

All of the Democrats I know, who have a favorable impression of Hogan, base their favorable impression on Hogan's (incomplete) rejection of Trump. That's not going to win him any Republican primaries.

+1

And Hogan is no angel he is still a Republican. I don't know why this has to be said but voting republican is just stupid moving forward. Give me one thing besides book banning and banning abortion they will do that helps the US? Hunter's Dick picks seem very important.... There has not been one time in history where Republcians bettered this country. Look at red states horrible schools, and they take money from Blue and fed government, time for all that to stop.

Flat tax of 23% MAGA fun times .... with them taking your soical security hahahahaha

Hogan hated Elrich and the County Council. But that doesn’t mean that he wasn’t cognizant of the needs of his supporters in the county where he won a number of precincts that are traditionally strongly Democratic.

Maryland Democrats demanded that Hogan transfer state control of BPD to the city. The outcome is that Moore now lacks the authority over public safety in Baltimore.

The Hogan Democrats are the Democratic voters in the state that support him.

I’m learning that none of you people were alive in the 80’s.

Meaning that Hogan, who loved highways, was happy to build highways in Montgomery County too.

For the vast majority of people in the county who also wanted the highways that their elected leaders were stalling because they are anti-change and anti-growth.

Somehow this "vast majority of people in the county" failed to make their voices heard at the ballot box as recently as November 2022.

Back to the conversation - he has charisma. He has a beautiful family. In today's culture, that plays an important role whether we like it or not.

He is just starting his governorship. Let's see what he does. I seriously doubt he will run in 2024 but if he does well in MD, I could see him making a play for 2028 or even 2032.

Totally agree. I hope he does well. If so, I’m there for him in 2028/2032 if he runs.

How do you know where you'll be, or where he'll be, on the political spectrum, 11 years from now??? I guess your allegiance is to party and not country.
