Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, a Republican, seems convinced he should run for president. He can save his own time and other people’s money by looking at the writing on the wall.

Hogan can’t run for governor again because of term limits. He has ruled out running for Senate, which may have been a winnable race for him that could have put Senate Democrats in a tough spot in an already-tough national environment. Instead, he continues to hint he will run for president, which he has been doing for a couple of years now.
