The CNN anchor questioned New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu after he said he’d back Trump as the Republican nominee, even if he were convicted.
Wolf Blitzer called out New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu, who has criticized Donald Trump on several occasions over his recent decision to back the former president if he becomes the GOP nominee in his White House bid.
The CNN anchor questioned Sununu on Thursday after he said a day earlier that he’d support Trump if he’s the 2024 Republican nominee for president, even if he’s convicted. The former president is facing 91 felony charges in four indictments.
“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 told Sununu, who has endorsed the former United Nations ambassador in the 2024 race. “Given that, why should anyone take either of your criticisms of Trump seriously?”
Sununu, who once predicted that Republicans would lose again if Trump is the nominee, has previously called on GOP candidates to “break free from Mr. Trump’s drama” and pushed them to “find separation” from the former president.
He also referred to Trump’s federal indictment over his handling of classified documents as “self-inflicted”. In June, he said he expects “some kind of guilty verdict” for Trump.
