MD Gov. Hogan: ‘Doesn’t Make Any Sense’ Trump Encouraging Protests Against His Own Policies

Governor Larry Hogan (R-MD) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that it did not make sense for President Donald Trump to be encouraging protests against state stay-at-home orders amid the coronavirus pandemic when the federal government has laid out strict reopening policies.

Host Jake Tapper said, “Protesters gathered in the state capitol yesterday to call for you to reopen businesses, reopen schools. I want you to take a listen to what President Trump said about protests occurring around the country.”

In a clip, the president said, “I mean, I know there are a lot of protests out there, and, uh, I just think that some of the governors have gotten carried away. We have a lot of people that don’t have to be told to do what they’re doing. They’ve been really doing everything we’ve asked them.”

Tapper said, “Specifically I think President Trump is referring to three Democratic governors, and coincidentally, I’m sure, three battleground states for 2020. What’s your response when you hear the president saying that some governors are going overboard?”

Hey Hogan you pig faced idiot. The MSM is only giving you time because you bash our POTUS every chance you get. I hope you take the route of Fartin Omally and run for higher office. The MSM will change their tune and eat you alive. I sit here hoping you do. It will be fun to watch.

Hogan is a true politician - he doesn't care about MD 9r anyone else - it is all about media time. He wants to challenge Trump in 2020. He is right up there with Nancy Pelosi - dumb on people's needs - smart on their needs. Why is it that most States that are dragging their feet in opening are Democrat Governors.

There's a power grab plot here and the leaders are Cuomo and Rhino Hogan. Its a fact that the Dims are trying to seize the White House at any and all cost. They can't win because of all the 'dumbbells' that have screwed every topic they've undertook. So a gaggle of insignificant 'moles' (Adam Schiff) burn the midnight oil trying to undermine Trump. It's a good thing they're stupid or Trump might have something to worry about. Jim Mathias is the poster chill for this and you see where he is.

They're trying to make it so the President's office is insignificant and they're going to call the shots how they see it with the dolts like Pelosi and Schumer at the helm. If you read the U.S. and Maryland Constitutions you'll find there is " the right to free movement across the land" and the exception to the rule is the declaration of martial law. To date I have not seen that in being because the President knows that would preclude lawsuits in which the ordinary citizen would be victorious and collect the proper damages. If you notice the Dims haven't thought of that because if they did, the greatest house cleaning in the Federal Legislature that has been ever seen would be the result.

I suggest the thing that should be done is for the President to declare, " No compliance....No funds", and let these petty dictators see how they have control then.

They think they can outsmart the President yet they couldn't beat him in and on ANY field of competition. They have no ideas or solutions yet they show colossal stupidity everyday.
Call this the 'Mathias' Syndrome because of the way his backers in O.C. found him out and dropped him flat because of the 'rube' factor all Dims suffer with.

Doesn't make any sense to have Chinese drones flying around spying on people to make sure they observe the lockdown either. There is something more at play here. Why, why would we ever have Chinese drones (as Fox News is reporting) spying on us for a virus they created in the first place. Off grid living or even the virus is looking better everyday.

Why is Rogue Hogan criticizing the President for supporting protesters using their Constitutional right? Rogue Hogan is not even enforcing his own policies. What a hypocrite. Another example of his Democrat ways. When Hogan allows out of state people where they have a large number of victims come to MD and effect Maryland citizens means he has no right to criticize Pres Trump.

I believe that the protesting is on account of certain governors acting like Nazi's. I mean we are gonna distance ourselves to stay safe, that is common sense. When you start ticketing people who are in cars at a worship service with NO contact outside a closed vehicle, that is just targeting people who are not spreading anything but the gospel.

You were offered an ATM card for free. With it, getting your money is easy. B of A is now swamped with people who change their minds.

Hogan, Trump put it on the Governors to decide and close down their states, and how far to go in shutting down their states. Now Trump is putting it on the governors how to reopen their states. Hogan needs to "poop or get off the pot." If he can't handle it, get out of the way and let someone else lead.

How is this statement wrong?
Trump published guidelines to follow.
Protesting is not in those guidelines.

He told the Governors that they are on their own. SO what is wrong here

Why are so many people soooooo clueless on how Government works. I learned about this in the 5th grade. That old saying keep quiet and let them think you're stupid or open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Hogan needs to stop lying if he can. The President NEVER encouraged anyone to protest.

I do like Hogan’s policy with snitching on neighbors and a few others do to. It’s fun shaming people I feel like Chris Cuomo. Thanks Larry you got my phone. I got a few on the board walk.
