Republican New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu, who endorsed GOP presidential applicant Nikki Haley more than previous President Donald Trump in advance of finally endorsing Trump soon after Haley dropped out, mentioned on CNN with Jake Tapper that election denialism is “a extremely critical problem” but it’s “not definitely a best difficulty” in the 2024 election.
Sununu contends that the top issues “are even now the border, inflation and factors of that character, people are the problems you see out there that are truly affecting men and women’s life.” Sununu extra that he doesn’t assume election denialism “will be a driver for people swing voters” and promises “they’re not placing it on the top rated of their listing. It’s really what’s hitting them in the pocketbook.”

Political pundit Aaron Rupar uncovered fault with the CNN job interview and Sununu’s unchallenged assertions, calling out the Governor’s promises of election denialism “on both of those sides of the aisle” and Tapper’s “absence of pushback on this preposterous claim.”
Sununu phone calls Trump the “typical-bearer” for the “definitely horrible” election denialism, which may perhaps notify Tapper’s acquiescence, declaring “no one particular wants to be conversing about what transpired in 2020.”
Sununu is patently incorrect in his assertion that no a single desires to chat about what transpired in 2020. The Republican National Committee (RNC) last 7 days dispersed an electronic scripted phone to voters’ telephones on behalf of new co-chair Lara Trump, daughter-in-law of the presumptive GOP presidential nominee, declaring Democrats dedicated “massive fraud” in the 2020 election.
The message has been successful, with polls frequently displaying a the vast majority of Republicans think the election was corrupt. Trump, a branding specialist, has by no means wavered from his rhetoric that the election was “rigged.” As Trump administration performing deputy Lawyer Standard Richard Donoghue explained to the Jan 6 committee: Trump instructed his DOJ throughout the article-election tumult to “just say it was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the Republican congressmen.”
“Just say it was corrupt and leave the relaxation to me and the Republican congressmen.”
