NH Gov: Yes, I’m Considering Running For President

Sununu spoke about the 2024 presidential election in an appearance on CNN’s State of the Union. Asked by host Dana Bash is Sununu was considering a run for President himself, he said “yes.”

“He read his teleprompter, he stuck to his talking points and he went away,” New Hampshire Gov. Sununu says, calling Trump’s speech in his state “mundane.” “Even if you’re the former president, you gotta come and earn it.”
