Third Republican Governor Backs Impeachment Inquiry

Politico reports:

Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan publicly expressed support for the impeachment inquiry of President Donald Trump, joining a small but growing number of Republicans breaking from the party’s mostly unwavering support of the president.

“I think we do need an inquiry because we have to get to the bottom of it,” Hogan said in a segment on PBS’ Firing Line that aired Thursday night. “I’m not ready to say I support impeachment and the removal of the president, but I do think we should have an impeachment inquiry.”

Hogan joins governors Phil Scott (R-VT) and Charlie Baker (R-MA) in their call for impeachment inquiry proceedings. No Republican members of the House have openly supported the inquiry.
