larry hogan is with us, the maryland governor. you are pushing a refund the police movement.? >> when all the far left lunacy came out. i was the first elected leader in america to speak out against it and say our police are under funded and under attack. in maryland we initiated a half billion increase in police funding and including 50% increase in state funding to over police. it was very popular not only with republicans but baltimore city, the victims of crime and they didn't want to defund the police. saying you want to defund the police to improve policing is like saying you want to defund the schools to improved indication. it is lunacy. it is starting to change the narrative across the country. i'm supporting candidates that are pushing dealing with violent crime and supporting police as part of their policies. >> dana: tell us about that. you went to portland, oregon. a competitive gubernatorial race out there. republican, you think she has a shot. tell us what you observed in portland and why crime is an issue people will vote on. >> portland just -- just got in fr

larry hogan in charlie baker in another universe, you think, well they figure something out politically, you have a 70% approval rating. and the base of the party was like, we hate you shut up go away forever. in the primaries. >> yes, -- sorry go ahead. >> i was gonna say, i think it's worth noting that in several cases, in these really competitive senate races, these moderates pretty popular governors had a shot to be on the ballot, so in the case of new hampshire, -- national republicans run for the senate races that these very position that bullet now has. and he walked away from it. he didn't want to go through the drama of probably been challenged from the right, been at odds with trump in the primary, the same thing with larry hogan. republicans thought they might actually have a chance at flipping maryland, if hogan ran because he was so popular, and hogan said i don't to deal with. this same thing with doug doocy, there's blake masters on the ballot right now this fall, who's not particular poplin of state. and that's because doug doocy said no i don't want any part of this. >>

a >> poll showed republican governor larry hogan is the third most governor in the nation. 71%.ominating a popular potential replacement. i know, the one who won the primaries someone holding campaign against, calling him a qanon whack job and quote not mentally stable. but the republican voted and that qanon walked rob's now they're nominee for governor. so even more striking in a place like massachusetts, where republican charlie baker is the most popular governor in the country, involving 74% approval rating. he's not running for reelection. nominated is his replacement is a trump backed state rep, meaning these sub states will not a very competitive gubernatorial races. governor mike dewine is very conservative republican, he's just not a maga guy. the republican senate katie vance's. look at the recent poll. his reelection rates pulling a solid 54% while that scares just 39% in the very same poll. same electorate. now these two guys are not running against each other but what this poll shows and a lot of data is that the non-trump republican governor mike dewine pulls see n

and larry hogan.s is my fault, i'm sorry dan, larry hogan is not to support you because i am supporting you. i hope you do well and we will be out there helping you. a friend of mine who is a great person, woody johnson and his wife. where is woody, he's shy. they own a small company called johnson & johnson. i wanted peace of that company. great job. i love you both. the patriot freedom project, what a job they do, where are you. stand up. what a job. we all appreciate it. with the help of everyone here today, we are going to fight for pennsylvania, we are going to win for pennsylvania this november. one of the first things we will do is and upper parents right. it's time to finally and completely break the laughs corrupt education cartel. can you believe, 10 years ago. can somebody stand up. i can believe i'm calling myself a politician -- i can't stand politicians. can you believe 10 years ago, a politician would be standing up saying we are going to defend parental rights? it's about as basic as -

larry hogan called dan cox a qanon whack job.cox has called former vp mike pence a trader and called wes moore a socialist and communist. maryland republicans maryland to nominate a 9/11 conspiracy theorist for attorney general. in massachusetts, baker has been quiet about the nominee. in both cases the republican bases turned away from the center right leadership of the successful incumbents along a hallmark of northeast republicans. which brings me to new hampshire and last night's primary. the live free or die strate is considered a counter to massachusetts. but both states have more independents just like rhode island and connecticut. new hampshire has a popular and effective republican governor, chr chris si knunu but he did not s you have bolduc against morris. bolduc has called the government a communist sympathizer. the other thing is electability. democrats ran against morris because they think he's harder to beat in the general election. they want to run against boulduc. while morris conceded overnight it's still too cl

current republican governor who you saw right there, larry hogan, has made it abundantly clear, he will not support his party's nominee for the office. and lately, some republicans like maryland trump endorsed dan cox, who easily won his primary, are getting a run from their money, from democratic opponents like wes moore, i had a chance to speak with more a few days ago about his campaign and what it will take for democrats to win not just in maryland, but across the nation. >> i look at maryland in many ways people call it american miniature. we also know that so many of the challenges that you see around the country are right here in the states and maryland. we can have some of the best medical institutions in the world right here in the state of maryland, and people who look down the street for them they can't afford basic care. >> why? why is this state even the city of baltimore, divided like that? >> i think you have to be intentional about inclusiveness. and here's a be intentional about not leaving people behind. >> those are fancy words. how would you solve it? >> when i think

we want to welcome governor larry hogan from maryland.better than zooming in >> back to work. >> great to see you guys are real life. >> usually people with money pay attention to you every morning and guys like me, we're focussed on the other news of the day >> let's talk about some of that other news of the day. we have seen some pretty serious issues the market's been down this year because of concerns about inflation, concerns about a down turn in the economy, lots of issues that are going on. what do you see in your state? >> our state is booming, but the concerns are legitimate. people all across america are concerned about inflation, prices out of control. supply chain issues. we've got to work on our domestic energy production, so our state, we're doing fairly well, we turned the economy around, we cut taxes eight years in a row by $4.8 billion we took 5 pld deficit, turned it into a $3 billion surplus and took our economy from 49th out of 50 states to number isix. more businesses open but you still have people struggling people a

larry hogan, nikki haley, like the previous caller stated. tim ryan, he is and moderate. am not for abortion. there is a lot of things, but the democrat camp is a large camp. not all republicans, and i don't say maga republicans, but the ones that came out of the woodwork's to come and support president trump -- i supported him during "the apprentice." we had every tv on. if he would have stick to that person, he would have win my vote, probably all of america, if he stuck to that. what he brought in -- ron desantis, i would love if he would run, only against trump though. host: that was melissa in lafayette. david in new york, republican line. caller: yeah, hi, i would love to see the rematch, but i do not think it would be much of a match. if he was asked about domestic policies, i do not think he would be able to win an election unless a lot of dead people vote. host: that is david there in new york. another comment on the recent polls on this matchup was the white house press secretary yesterday. you can see that total press conference when they air and washington, d.

neighboring state of massachusetts and maryland where the two most popular governors in the country were larry hoganrlie baker. republican governors of blue states. and they can't even endorse the candidates who have been nominated to replace them because they endorse trump's lies and are so part of representing the maga banner. >> i want to get to other candidates so i want you to respond, alice. you've also got this gen zer, caroline leavitt. she ran against matt nowers. she went in and mimicked trump's brash style and supported his election lie. does this prove that you have to fully embrace everything trump? >> she's exactly right in terms of winning a primary. the other congressional candidate in new hampshire also was a trump-endorsed candidate that was very far to the right. that's terng to me. look, what is formula to date for many people to win a primary is not a winning formula for a general election. look, we need to go from the magafication of the gop to the modification of the gop. we need to appeal not just to the base but the moderate. they're not interested in election deniers and co

larry hogan was a popular two-term republican government in a very democratic state. >> yes. >> republicansse not to repeat that and attempt to do that again. and they picked the trump candidate to back and see how that goes. massachusetts has elected republican governors. instead of repeating the charlie baker model, the sort of moderate republican that could win in democratic massachusetts again, they picked the trumpiest candidate 30 points behind the democratic nominee and probably no chance of winning. i did not get what is this performative politics for? who is this for? if you're trying to get people into the seats! >> we will see. let's talk about fascinating race in pennsylvania for the open senate seat there between oz and fetterman. fetterman is refusing to debate oz. his team has been open about the fact they say he has not fully recovered from his stroke. oz's campaign has lobbed some although blows at fetterman in the wake of that about his health. let me read from the op-ed in the gazette. "the wall street journal" writing if fetterman can campaign around the state and speak

state of massachusetts, and in maryland, where the two most popular governors in the country, where larry hoganr. republican governors of blue states and they can't even endorse the candidate who have been nominated to replace them on the party ticket because they are candidates who endorse trump's lies and are so aligned with the maga banner that they simply don't represent the values that that old northeast and republican tradition representatives. >> i want to ask, i want to get to other candidates, so i want your response alice. you also got this gen zers, caroline leavitt, winning the gop nomination for new hampshire first congressional district. she ran against another former trump administration, matt myers, but she went all in and mehmet trumps brash that supported his election lie. does this prove what margaret just said, that's in order to, when you have to fully embrace everything trump? >> she is exactly right. and in terms of winning a primary. the other congressional candidates in new hampshire also was a trump endorsed candidates that was a very far to the right and that is conce

dan cox defeated by that state's moderate governor, larry hogan. see the salmon color, that means a trump endorsement. winning the republican nomination for governor over several other republicans who performed better in the suburbs which tend to decide close elections. so trumpism is winning in the primaries. the two candidates in massachusetts saying game on. >> the choice in this election could not be more clear. it's a choice between partisanship and progress. between dividing people and delivering for people. >> i believe our election integrity and government accountability, laura is bought and paid for by this alphabet soup in our state. we have to empower parents to keep that political agenda out of the classrooms. >> let's get some incites from paul and cnn political commentator david. david, i want to start with you. if you're donald trump or somebody who backs trumpism, you look at massachusetts last night, maryland, pennsylvania in these primaries, and you're celebrating. your side is winning and defeating a more moderate republican bran

larry hogan is an outlier. the established republicans ignoring all the lessons of history saying these guys are nuts, extremists, embracing big lies. but in the interest of party unity, we are going to support them anyway. so you're seeing that in arizona. you are seeing that in pennsylvania. you're going to see that in new hampshire as well , that republicans who understand how dangerous this is nevertheless decide they're going to put party over country and over the truth. and so for anybody out there who is under any illusions after all of these years that republicans are at some point going to draw a red line and say, i'm sorry, that's going too far, no, we can't have qanon -- >> it's frozen. we lost charlie. the robots have taken charlie down. i understand where he was going with this, juanita. >> right. >> the reality is, the end of his sentence was going to be you're dreaming if you think they're going to stop them. >> the end of his sentence was don't hold your breath. >> exactly. so i'll give you the

successful republican governors in the country from maryland and massachusetts charlie baker and larry hoganminee because even in those states where you had a successful republican not protrump enough, not big lie enough. >> i wonder what governor sinunu who is running for reelection, what he's going to do. >> he was called a communist sympathizer and said the family profited off terrorism. i don't think there is a lot of bad blood for good reason. the problem is the fund mental catch 22 is that republicans are realizing that they can't win a primary, close or open unless they endorse election lies but they can't win a general election if they do. that's a problem of their own making. >> yeah, i guess we'll see. we don't know. >> we'll see. >> they might win. >> in purple swing states that's a lot. >> this is all lining up for a democratic senate. >> we'll see. >> or -- >> we'll see. or the end of the republic. either way. margaret hoover and john avilan thank you. >>> how confident do ukraines feel now that part of their country is recaptured from the russians. stay with us. the stronger, l

>> brian: i thought larry hogan had the best tweet.president biden is truly serious about the threats of democracy with this maga, then he would condemn the tens of millions of democratic dollars -- democratic groups have spent promoting the extremist threatening democracy. for example, mastriano in pennsylvania might be the right pick but he was backed by democrats. that's the same thing they did in maryland. they took the most extreme candidate and democrats poured money into them. if they are worried about the maga agenda. why could they spend millions of dollars supporting the most fervent donald trump supporters? because they think that they were going -- >> ainsley: why would they democrats go on stage with him and go though these events. >> brian: they won't go. >> ainsley: mandela barnes the candidate for senate in wisconsin he didn't go to the as opresident he's speech because e said he had to attend other events he was notably absent. the president of the united states comes. josh shapiro, kelly, tim ryan, senator cortez mast

the sitting republican governor, larry hogan has called cox a quote qanon whack job and has suggestedeat to see you, but the state of the race is i think the numbers confirm something that we have been seeing all over the state is that, you know, my opponent's message is not resonating. we are running against someone who voted against a bill that would have banned spousal rape, that we're running against someone who believes that all abortions should be criminalized for both the patient and the provider even in the case of incest and rape, someone who like you mentioned, the current governor said that not only is he not going to support him, but he wouldn't even give him a tour of the governor's office. the thing we're seeing around the state of maryland and why we feel good about where we are, is we're not asking people to support our campaign because they should be afraid of something, we're asking them to support our campaign because they should believe in someone: a leave no one behind, our north star is creating pathways for work, wages and wealth for all families, that we want t
