Republican Governor of New Hampshire, Chris Sununu, has offered his endorsement to former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley in the race for the Republican nomination. During a recent debate, both candidates on stage were asked whether they believed former President Donald Trump had the character to be president again. However, they were unable to respond with a simple yes or no. Governor Sununu defended their responses, stating that the candidates were focused on earning the trust and votes of Iowa voters, rather than getting caught up in a question about Trump.
Sununu highlighted that Haley has taken a strong stance against Trump, making it clear where she stands on issues such as January 6th and election denial. He believes that Haley is not playing for second place, but is determined to win the race and bring the country together. Sununu further emphasized that candidates like Haley and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis are focused on building their own base of support, rather than tearing down their opponents or playing to an anti-Trump crowd. He acknowledged that most Republicans would support the eventual nominee, regardless of whether it is Trump, as their priority is defeating President Biden and his policies.
