[Asia Economy New York=Special Correspondent Joselgina] "Korean son-in-law" Larry Hogan, Governor of Maryland, USA, did not rule out the possibility of running for president on the 12th (local time).

Hogan, a member of the Republican Party, said in an interview with CBS on the day, "More and more people are encouraging me to consider this (running)." Hogan is a leading potential candidate who may enter the 2024 Republican presidential primary. He is also called the "Korean son-in-law" because his wife is Yumi Hogan, who is of Korean descent.

On the day, Governor Hogan said, "The number of people who want former President Trump to run is decreasing," and "More people are looking for successful politics that build a bigger tent." The "Big Tentron" is an election strategy proposed by Hogan, who criticized former President Trump as divisive and inflammatory, emphasizing unity.

He criticized that if former President Trump makes a third presidential bid in 2024, it would ruin things, saying, "We have experienced the worst four years in election politics since the 1930s during Trump's tenure." He added, "We lost the White House, the Senate, and the House. We cannot repeat that," and said, "He already lost to Joe Biden (the president), which was a difficult thing to happen."
