GOP Governor Slams Trump as ‘F***Ing Crazy’ at DC Event

/1 Comment/in , , /by

New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu, a Republican, lambasted former President Donald Trump as “f***ing crazy” in a monologue at an elite DC event for journalists over the weekend.

Sununu was one of a number of speakers at the annual Gridiron Club dinner Saturday evening, which returned after a three year hiatus caused by the coronavirus pandemic. The event, attended by political and media elites, features skits and speeches from a bipartisan roster of lawmakers, all of which involve roasting one another. The New Hampshire governor, according to Politico, initially pretended to praise the 45th president’s “experience,” “passion,” “sense of integrity,” and the “rationale” he brought to his tweets.

“Nah,” Sununu, who is considered as a 2024 contender, continued, “I’m just kidding. He’s f***ing crazy,” causing the Renaissance Hotel ballroom to erupt in laughter.

“Are you kidding? Come on,” the Republican governor then jokingly asked the crowd of if they thought he was seriously praising the former president’s tweets. “You guys are buying that? I love it.” Sununu then revealed that Trump “just stresses me out so much,” before pledging that he was “going to deny I ever said” what he had.

Sununu, who has served as governor since 2017, went on to quip that “The press often will ask me if I think Donald Trump is crazy. I’ll say it this way: I don’t think he’s so crazy that you could put him in a mental institution. But I think if he were in one, he ain’t getting out.” The governor also told the story of when the then-president was visiting the Granite State and offered him a ride in the presidential limo, known as The Beast. According to Sununu, Trump pointed to a crowd of people holding signs outside and remarked, “They love me.” The problem, he said, was that the man he pointed to was holding a sign that actually read, “F*** Trump.” (Read more from “GOP Governor Slams Trump as ‘F***Ing Crazy’ at DC Event” HERE)
