Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan (R) suggested he isn't pleased with the current state of the
Republican Party on Sunday, telling
NBC News' Chuck Todd that it "bothers me" that
Republicans have to "swear fealty" to former President
Donald Trump "or you get kicked out." The GOP, he said, has become a "circular firing squad where we're just attacking members of our party instead of focusing on solving problems" or debating the Biden administration on policy.
Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), another Republican who isn't afraid to criticize Trump, had a different analogy for his party: the Titanic. "We're ... in the middle of this slow sink," he told CBS News' John Dickerson, later arguing that many of his colleagues are trying to move on too quickly from reckoning with the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
