“Governor, I know you’ve suggested that you will vote for Trump even if he is a convicted felon. Nikki Haley has basically said that, as well. She’s refused to rule out joining Trump’s ticket as a vice presidential nominee,” Blitzer instructed Sununu, who has endorsed the previous United Nations ambassador within the 2024 race. “Given that, why should anyone take either of your criticisms of Trump seriously?”

Sununu, who as soon as predicted that Republicans would lose once more if Trump is the nominee, has beforehand referred to as on GOP candidates to “break free from Mr. Trump’s drama” and pushed them to “find separation” from the previous president.

Everyone always says that, but it never does, right?” Sununu stated. “The voters are not looking at those issues. They’re not looking at Jan. 6. That is not what the voters are galvanizing behind. They know Bidenonomics, whatever that is, and inflation. These things have crushed middle American families.”

Sununu later dismissed “long-term hypotheticals” that voters “think may or may not” affect the election.

“You got to win the votes here. If you want Trump out, if you want to defeat Trump, it happens in Iowa and New Hampshire,” he stated. “That’s really where it happens, and that’s why we don’t want anyone to kind of sit on the couch and just wait to see what happens in the court. I think that’s more of the driver than anything else.”
