'Just embarrassing': GOP governor backtracks on past praise of Vivek Ramaswamy
New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu used to be intrigued by businessman Vivek Ramaswamy's bid for president. Now, in an interview with CNN's Poppy Harlow following the GOP's third primary debate in Miami, Sununu is completely over him.
"You said about Vivek Ramaswamy, the business guy — this was July, here it is," said Harlow, playing the clip.
"Ramaswamy, I got to tell you, is exciting people," said Sununu in the clip. "He gets people excited on stage. I think he has to bring a little more other than being the other anti-woke guy."
"Did he bring more?" asked Harlow. "You have seen three debates now. Still impressed?"
"He brought more, but it was enough to tell me he ain't the guy to be president," said Sununu. "Look, I think the third debate, this last debate, was just embarrassing for him more than anything. He tried hard to be kind of an anti-establishment outrageous-type character, but he proved that he doesn't have the temperament for the job."
"If you are running for President of the United States, act like you have been there," Sununu added. "He tried to take shots at Nikki Haley. They were personal. You don't go after somebody's family, daughter like that. That's a cheap shot. Nobody watched that and said, now I am with Vivek. He lost ground and proved he doesn't have the temperament for it."
