2nd generation politician Chris Sununu, the governor of New Hampshire, announced today he would not be running for president in 2024.
His rationale? The fewer candidates in the Republican primaries, the less chance former president Donald Trump has of getting the nomination.
The Republicans stand a better chance of retaking the White House if their candidate in 2024 is anyone other than Trump or Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is hinting at making another run at the White House. Sununu would be one of the better choices, but he's thinking of the bigger picture, and that's keeping Trump away from the White House. Trump is too toxic, but try explaining that to his base of suburban, disenfranchised yokels, who probably think fast food is healthy food, since it works for Trump. We're being reminded on a regular basis that DeSantis' irrational agenda in Florida won't play well nationally, since he's thought of a Trump clone, despite the fact that the oldest baby in the world hates his guts.
But, look at it this way. We finally found a rational Republican.
