Republican New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu pinned the GOP’s underperformance in recent elections on former President Donald Trump, saying “the Trump brand just doesn’t work.”
“It’s about the former president more than anything,” Sununu said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “I’ve had school board members, Republican school board members, that have lost their seat because they felt like they had to constantly answer for being a Trump Republican,” Sununu said.
Trump’s negative influence on elections, Sununu argued, bleeds into local elections at all levels.
“It isn’t just the federal seats. It’s the governorships, the school boards, the congressional seats, all of them, especially in a place like New Hampshire where we can kind of get back and forth. We’re very independent minded. The Trump brand doesn’t work,” Sununu said. “It just doesn’t.”
Because the normal conservative platform, less regulation and lower taxes on corporations, leads to bad climate and systemic racism being unaddressed. It’s not a thing people want.
Reagan. That campaign and presidency brainwashed an entire generation into believing greed is good, and that asshole generation is still running the country right now.
