Sununu: Trump Convictions Wouldn’t Be Disqualifying, Voters Think Trials Are ‘Reality TV’
Breitbart ^ | 04/14/2024 | Pam Key

Posted on 04/14/2024 11:35:28 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Governor Chris Sununu (R-NH) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that voters will choose former President Donald Trump even if he is convicted of crimes.

Partial transcript as follows:

STEPHANOPOULOS: History being made tomorrow, that criminal trial. Will your support for Donald Trump continue even if he’s convicted in Manhattan?

SUNUNU: Yeah, look, this — this trial is not going to have major political ramifications that a lot of people, I think, think it may have. And when it comes to these issues, people see it more as reality TV at this point. They really do. And so, you know, whether it’s a conviction or what that conviction looks like, a lot of folks, they conflate all four of these different trials that he’s in.

All the bass turds proved during their efforts to lynch Trump is that DAs and AGs are affirmative action water buffalos, shyster lawyers are lying greedy bass turds, “judges” play with penis pumps under their robes during the hearings because they hate Trump and Trump-hating accusers are all prostitutes or porn stars.

Maybe because the justice system has been bastardized to the point that it is no better than reality TV. Which is really the case. Really.

He is somewhat right though.

It feels like a scripted show with a forced ending that they are going to ram through no matter what reality is.

It was 'Reality TV' during the OJ "trial". And, that was 30 years ago.

"The people in this country aren't stupid, Stephanopoulos. We see these trials for what they are...trumped-up illegal lawfare. You don't seriously think it will diminish Trump's popularity, do you?"

"It only serves to remind us all how you Democrats are nothing but a cancer on the country and must be stopped."

I have not watched any “news” since the OJ trial. I threw out the TV. I wonder if anyone else had the same response.

STEPHANOPOULOS: As you mentioned, this is one of only several indictments the former president is facing. Perhaps the most consequential one, of course, related to January 6th. Right after that January 6 attack, I want to put this up on the screen, you said: It is clear that President Trump’s rhetoric and actions contributed to the insurrection. The domestic terrorists who attacked the United States Capitol must be held accountable and prosecuted.

Do you stand by that statement?

SUNUNU: A hundred percent, of course. They have to be prosecuted, and they are being prosecuted. That’s good.

I think he — his actions absolutely contributed to that. There’s no question about that. I hate the election denialism of 2020. Nobody wants to be talking about that in 2024.

Anyone who says these things supports stolen elections and tyranny.

Wrong! Voters consider this election interference.

It takes a lot of courage for Sununu to admit he was wrong. Something Pence, Haley, Bolton, Christie, Barr, etc., have yet to do

John Sununu is an excellent example of full-blown Dunning-Kruger syndrome.

Only an unthinking person would let something as stupid and contrived as these phony witch hunts change their support for Trump.
It’s all nonsense, from start to finish.
I think Trump’s support will get stronger, not weaker, despite the media’s focused attention and breathless reporting.

Sununu should have his teeth knocked out for crapping on J6 Protesters.

Wrong - people see it more as a complete farce - kangaroo court.

Sunnunu-a change of heart? Hardly. He’s thinking of ‘26. Shaheen may call it quits. He’s setting himself up for her senate seat, something we’ll have to get behind.
