The “Who is running in 2024?” tea leaves thread

[Calthrina950]

Larry Hogan and Joe Lieberman have been named co-chairs of No Labels.

Maryland's Republican Gov. Larry Hogan is joining the bipartisan group No Labels as its new national co-chairman.

Hogan joins Joseph Liberman, a one-time vice presidential nominee and former Connecticut senator, who served as a Democrat before switching to an independent in his final years on Capitol Hill.

Together they will help lead the organization that promotes centrist political ideas as a new Congress is set to convene early next year.

"I am honored to help lead No Labels at a time when our message of putting aside partisan differences for the common good is needed more than ever," Hogan said in a statement Tuesday.

Lieberman of course, was Al Gore's VP nominee in 2000, and ran for President in his own right in 2004.

Hogan is widely speculated to be a likely 2024 candidate for President.

Two nasty guys.

Hogan's reputation seems to have taken a serious hit on this forum in the past few months.

I wasn't sure where else to post this, but I had an interesting "encounter" at my job today. I had to checkout a customer who was wearing a "Trump 2024" hat, the first time I've seen someone wearing that kind of hat. He asked me if I liked his hat. I hesitated, and after some delay, I lied and said yes. He then mentioned the Arizona audit which that pro-Republican firm has been conducting for weeks now, and claimed that they had found 20,000 illegal votes. I just shook my head and didn't say anything to the contrary, as I was on the clock and I didn't want to cause trouble. But this was yet another indicator to me of how strong Trump's support remains among the Republican base, and why I believe that the nomination is his unless he decides not to run.
