New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu, himself considered a possible candidate for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination, predicted Sunday in no uncertain terms that former President Donald Trump won’t win.
“Thank you for your service, we’re moving on,” Sununu said.
The leader of the “live free or die” state was speaking with Chuck Todd on NBC’s Meet the Press on Sunday when the fourth term governor predicted former President Donald Trump will not be the Republican nominee in 2024.
“I just don’t believe the Republican party is going to say that the best leadership for America tomorrow is yesterday’s leadership; that doesn’t make any sense,” he said.
Trump “is not going to be the nominee, that just isn’t going to happen,” according to Sununu.
Sununu’s supposition is at odds with polling, where the former president is currently leading among Republican hopefuls, with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis often cited as a distant second.
A recent Harvard survey seemed to indicate the former commander-in-chief would win the Republican nod regardless of who is running or how many contenders there are and theoretically go on to beat President Joe Biden or Vice President Kamala Harris.
Sununu’s prediction is also at odds with attendees at the Conservative Political Action Conference, where this weekend a straw poll showed Trump holding support by wide margins.
