Hogan says there are signs of authoritarianism in GOP

The big picture: The outgoing governor has been an outspoken critic of former President Trump and his party's loyalty to him. Hogan endorsed a Republican moderate in the Maryland governor primary who lost to a Trump-backed candidate and says he won't be supporting anyone in the gubernatorial election.

• When asked about calling Republican gubernatorial nominee Dan Cox a "Q-Anon whack job," Hogan told Garrett he "just told the truth."

What else he's saying: Hogan said there's "divisive rhetoric on both sides that's really bad for America."

• "I've been talking about the toxic politics and if Republicans are calling Democrats socialists and communists and we have the president of the United States calling Republicans fascist, I don't think it adds to the overall discussion," he said.
• "We all just talk about the differences we have on the issues and focus on the problems that most people in America want us to focus on," Hogan added.
