Hogan won't back 'QAnon whackjob' GOP nominee in Maryland governor race, he told ABC today.
"It was, kind of, unprecedented collusion between the Democratic Governors Association and Donald Trump," the outgoing governor told ABC's "This Week."
"And both of them were promoting a conspiracy-theory believing- kind of nut job," said Hogan, who Hogan also described as a "QAnon whack job.""There's no question this was a big win for the Democratic Governors Association that I think spent over $3 million trying to promote this guy," he told CNN's Jake Tapper.
There's "no question that we lost a battle" after Cox beat the moderate candidate he endorsed, Kelly Schulz, Hogan said. "I can tell you I'm not giving up, it just makes me want to double down and fight back against what I think is kind of a hostile takeover of the party that I love," he added.
