Why Sun-King Sununu Has Been Hating On The GOP So Much

Sun King Sununu

I have a theory about why Sun-King Sununu has been hating on the GOP so much lately. Let’s begin by reviewing the hating. First, Sun-King teased a Senate run until the political eleventh hour.

Rather than simply declining to run and giving as his reason how much he loved being Governor, the Sun-King instead gratuitously attacked Senate Republicans for not, in his opinion, cooperating enough with Biden. The Imposter-President would later use Sununu’s words to attack the GOP:

In his news conference Wednesday, Biden called out Senate Republicans who won’t work with him, quoting extensively from Sununu regarding the governor’s decision not to run for U.S. Senate.

“Here’s what he said: ‘They were all for the most part content with the speed at which they weren’t doing anything,'” Biden said. “‘It was very clear that we just had to hold the line for two years. Ok, so I’m just going to be a roadblock for the next two years? That’s not what I do,’ Sununu said.”

Subsequently, Sununu announced he would veto a Congressional map passed by the GOP-majority state legislature, which would have given the GOP a fighting chance of defeating Chris Pappas in the First CD and given the State’s GOP voters some representation in Congress.  To add insult to injury, he went on to propose a map that is breathtakingly friendly to the incumbent Democrat Congressmen.

So why is Sun-King hating so on the GOP? My theory is that 2022 will be his last election and that he is positioning himself for a post-political life on the Boards of woke corporations and as a contributor on CNN or MSNBC or perhaps the Sun-King even aspires to host a show on left-wing cable.

Ignore any talk about Sununu running for President. Sun-King was too lazy to do the fundraising needed to run against Hassan. No way he is going to do the work needed to mount a national campaign. Plus he has burned his bridges with both Senate and House Republicans.

It’s either a fifth-term as Governor in 2024 or Sun-King rides off into the political sunset. I think it’s the latter.
