Uh-oh, I guess the Hogan 2024 Campaign has found DCUM! Hopefully we won't be awash with fake posts for the next 4 years.

1. Hogan has no power over school openings.

2. He is posturing to get attention and help his Presidential run.

3. Furthermore, it's an idiotic move because the calendar does not dictate when schools can safely open, THE VIRUS DOES.

4. So, by holding regular press conferences and moaning about schools, he looks dumb to the more informed among us. But I'm sure he looks in charge and masterful to the people most likely to vote for him...

I mean, you're right that he has no formal official power to make it happen. But its also naive to think he can't use his bully pulpit to effect change. He can. And, through the use of punitive measures, he can leverage that bully pulpit even more.

There's more than one way to skin a cat and his power doesn't end with what's strictly written in the law.

But I think you already know that; you just want schools to stay closed.

Sometimes we can't all hold hands and sing kumbaya to make things work.

Sometimes you need to kick a little ass as a leader to get things going.

I've voted straight Dem since Gore in 2000, but would absolutely give Larry a chance.

Thank goodness for Hogan keeping the state non-bianary. Can you even image how much worse shape the state would be in with partisan control.

Hogan is very partisan.

I would like a leader that can actually deliver what he promises.

I get it. You are a binary regressive. If you believed in two party government, you would be able to see that he did a great job a head of the governor's association and in leadership through the pandemic.
