Sununu's father is a MAGAite on Fox.

Neither of the four can win a GOP presidential nomination, Baker maybe.

A Haley-Baker ticket would give VP Harris a lot of problems, or even a Baker-T. Scott ticket. The Karens would "come home to the GOP"

When I saw the Glob headline it just said Baker and Sununu. So I thought, oh no, don't tell me they got to Phil! But then reading it thankfully Hogan and Scott are there as well.

Yeah the Globe probably just thought to mention MA and NH and leave it at that.

But yeah Scott also refused to sign letters endorsing Gorsuch and Kavanaugh so this doesn't surprise me. Phil casually takes highly anti-Trump positions all the time (endorsing Weld, support conviction, etc) and even ones fairly left of center (criticizing Republicans AND Democrats for not raising the federal minimum wage sufficiently, and establishing social equity standards for the marijuana business) but nobody cares because "muh Vermont small state burrr".
