New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu has publicly declared his continued support for Donald Trump for the presidency, even if Trump is convicted of a crime. This statement came during an interview where Sununu was pressed by George Stephanopoulos on whether his support for Trump would persist despite potential criminal convictions. Sununu's stance, emphasizing that this decision is based on political considerations and citing Trump's enduring popularity over more than a year, has sparked a wide range of reactions. Some critics have condemned him for prioritizing politics over ethical considerations. Sununu, once a fierce critic of Trump, justified his position by pointing to poll numbers that have remained stable despite ongoing legal challenges, stating, "This is about politics." This development has been met with both support and condemnation from various quarters, highlighting the polarized nature of current political discourse.
