Not much of a surprise that NH-NeverTrumpJournal would agree with Sun-King Sununu’s ridiculous claim that the riot by a relative handful of those peacefully protesting the rigging of the 2020 election was DOMESTIC TERRORISM.
And apparently, NH-NeverTrumpJournal believes that it is inoculating Sun-King from criticism by conservatives in noting that Senator Ted Cruz used the same phraseology.
The problem for NH-NeverTrumpJournal is that Cruz has explained … politician-speak for abandoned … his assertion that J6 was terrorism. His explanation was that he was referring JUST to people who attacked law enforcement and that he has ALWAYS referred to people who attack law enforcement as terrorists. Here is his segment on Tucker:

Whether you believe Cruz’s explanation or not, he states repeatedly during the segment that he does NOT believe J6 was an “insurrection,” a “coup,” “terrorism,” etc., etc., etc.
So Sun-King Sununu … who incidentally never, to my recollection, labeled as terrorism the BLM and Antifa burning and destroying of large parts of American cities during the past summer … needs to explain exactly how a largely peaceful protest constitutes terrorism.
