Sununu stabbed Trump during the Gridiron Club’s spring dinner Saturday night, an annual rally in Washington with sketches and speeches by Democrats, Republicans and journalists expected to “sing” but “burn” its political elite. . “He’s (too) crazy!” Sununu said in savory remarks that members of both parties as well as the Washington journalists covering them were baking. Sununu also said he was surprised by a meeting with Trump when the former president was visiting New Hampshire for a political rally. After greeting Trump at the airport, Sununu said Trump insisted on going with him to the scene. Sununu said Trump spent most of the trip obsessed with his vote numbers, but at one point broke his mind to point out that all the people holding American flags on the motorcade were fans of him. Trump pointed to a man with a flag and a sign before Trump returned to the ballot box, Sununu recalled. “I can only pay attention to the guy he showed, the sign he’s holding says, ‘(insulting, Trump!),’” Sununu joked. In a speech to Gridiron, Sununu targeted Democrats and ridiculed himself. He said White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki, who is reportedly set to sign a deal to join MSNBC shortly, would be wise to take her money in advance, taking into account the network’s ratings. Sununu noted that he was included in the Washington Post’s list of 10 potential candidates for the 2024 GOP presidency. . Maryland MP Jamie Ruskin, speaking on behalf of the Democrats at the dinner, remarked that he had not heard “a Republican use the word F so much from the Nixon administration.” The story goes on “But I have to say that Governor Sununu’s eloquent swearing is the kind of uprising the GOP needs today,” Raskin said. The incumbent usually attends the event. President Joe Biden, who spent the weekend in Delaware, skipped but sent a video message. Trade Minister Gina Raimondo made remarks on behalf of the administration. Republicans took a step back from Sununu last year to challenge incumbent Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan in 2022, but she eventually refused and ran for re-election as governor. The seat is one of many that Republicans are considering as they try to gain control of the Senate in the upcoming by-elections. Sununu told the Washington Examiner that after hearing the GOP leadership plan for the next two years, he decided he was not just interested in being a “roadblock” on Biden’s agenda.
