AUDIO: Sununu ‘I Very Much Support’ Trump

In WKXL interview, GOP Gov nominee doubles down on Trump support

Sununu’s own father: “If Donald Trump is the nominee we will not get a Republican governor”

Donald Trump is bringing his disastrous campaign back to New Hampshire this evening, and GOP gubernatorial candidate Chris Sununu is rolling out the welcome mat.

One day after narrowly emerging from an embarrassing GOP primary contest, Sununu took to WKXL Radio to double down on his support for Trump.

“I support Donald Trump. I very much support him,” Sununu said in a phone interview. “I support Donald Trump and hope he becomes president.”

Listen to the full audio here.  

Sununu has fully endorsed Trump despite his own father’s warning earlier this year that Trump would cost Republicans the governor’s race:

“Up here in New Hampshire, if Donald Trump is the nominee we will not get a Republican governor, we will lose the New Hampshire state senate and we could lose the New Hampshire state house,” Sununu told Bloomberg Politics in January.

Sununu’s bear hug of Trump comes only one day after accepting the endorsement of anti-choice advocate Frank Edelblut in his first act as the GOP nominee for governor.
