He should have just tried to restore his party‘s sanity, and run, himself.

1. He hates Dump. Always has. Tolerated Dump coming to Maryland on occasion to highlight how bad things were in Baltimore.
2. He's not a culture warrior, so he wouldn't endorse DeathSentence. Plus, being a cancer survivor, Larry was probably the only Republican governor who came out strongly for masking and vaccination during the pandemic. As a result, Maryland had some of the lowest mortality rates in the country.
3. He's from the pro-business wing of the Republican party. I thought that he would run under No Labels, since a lot of moderates seem to like him. But, Maryland's finances aren't as great as he claimed, dating to his administration.
4. He's probably bucking for VP or a Cabinet position if Nikki wins.
