I’d like to have nice things to say about New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu, but he doesn’t make it easy. Sure, I applauded a few bills he signed (which could have been better had he let them), but lately, he’s mostly been a disappointment, and crap like this makes it more challenging.
His Excellency made an appearance on CNN’s State of the Union (which is odd because the last time I checked, he just wanted to run New Hampshire). “[A]nchor Jake Tapper asked if he thought it was “disqualifying” for Republican gubernatorial hopefuls to campaign on former President Donald Trump’s discredited claims that the 2020 election was stolen through widespread fraud.”
Governor Groomer not only carries the Democrat’s water, he adds some ice, a slice of lemon, and a little umbrella.
“Well, if I were — if they were on the ballot in my state, I would disqualify them,” Sununu said.
How? How would you disqualify them?
“So I don’t know if there’s ever one single disqualifying issue,” Sununu continued. “But my sense is, if they’re kind of pushing that line, there’s other issues and other platform policies that folks might have questions with. But that’s something every voter just has to kind of decide for themselves — look at the whole platform, look at what’s important in their state and what’s important for their family.”
Lovely dance you did there, and you’d disqualify them for that, but there’s no single disqualifying issue.
Well, of course not. Chris Sununu and the NHGOP platform are not close companions. Irreconcilable differences might be an excellent way to explain the relationship. But daring to question how stupid, idiot, creepy basement-dwelling Joe Biden got more votes than Obama, that’s crazy talk.

It’s also (to his credit) not the biggest concern of Granite Staters.
Inflation and being left behind economically are top concerns. Declining student achievement is a concern. So why take the shot at Republicans then equivocate? Because he is one of the Left’s useful idiots (Chris should check out this survey). They can count on him to take shots at his party from their side of the aisle. And he’d rather move along on the question of voter fraud than take even a casual unbiased look at the math that doesn’t add up.
Nor will he ever.
I’m not sure how much political capital Sununu spent to make the Windham thing go away (the Merrimack thing never got uninvestigated), but we’ve got some sketchy election BS right here in New Hampshire and have for years.

How do Republicans keep winning down-ticket majorities but can’t win a seat in Congress to save their lives?
It defies human nature, and it is one of those things folks question, but if you dared ask them, per the CNN appearance, well – His Excellency would disqualify you for pushing that line.
Not a “making every legal vote count is the foundation of our republic” and if voters have concerns about that they’ll make it known at the polls. No, he’d disqualify those Republicans.
That’s the Democrat’s goal. Disqualify a potential Republican Candidate from running for President again (Trump) because he wants to dismantle their corrupt little Klan Bake. And Sununu is with them?
And one more thing. Sununu is “disqualifying” people who have concerns and want an investigation to ensure that every legal vote counts, while his AG is dismissing as “free speech” a statement by a Democrat candidate encouraging the kind of fraud about which those governors are concerned.
Nice.
