Whom Donald Trump has insinuated is unintelligent — fired back on Monday, calling the billionaire developer and Republican presidential front-runner a "lefty liberal" who's "thin-skinned" and "all mouth."
In an explosive interview with Newsmax TV's Steve Malzberg, the former New Hampshire governor who also served as chief of staff to President George H.W. Bush, lashed out at Trump's nose-thumbing barb which was reported by the Wall Street Journal. "Can you believe this guy? He was fired like a dog and he doesn't even realize it," Trump said of Sununu. "That's funny coming from a guy who's got four major billion-dollar bankruptcies," Sununu retorted referring to financial problems several of Trump's companies had years ago.
Sununu added, "he has no substance, he has no plan, he's all mouth, he's thin-skinned. Trump likes to brag that he can't be bought because he's so rich. "[Russian President Vladimir] Putin proved [Trump is] the cheapest guy in politics today with 10 cents worth of flattery. Putin had him sucked up all the way. This is a guy that you can't have as commander in chief." Sununu also dismissed the hay Trump is making over whether his chief rival Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas is eligible to be president since he was born in Canada. "Trump is out trying to knock anybody who's nipping at his tails.
"All his life he's been a lefty liberal, he supports Obamacare, he's all for eminent domain, he has told us he's very pro-life even on immigration. This guy has been a lifelong liberal on immigration and now he's a conservative all of a sudden?

Here's a guy who, personifies the disharmony in our party. Do you think in a minute he'll campaign or support the winner, whoever that will be?
All the people running on our side are good people. Each of them can do a better job than the man in the White House now or the two the democrats have.
Trump is no conservative. Neither is Sununu.
Sununu = GOPe.
“All mouth”, he says. Is Sununu challenging Trump to a fistfight?
I agree. Trump is phony and is no conservative.
But I say to Mr. Sununu, it takes one to know one.
This the same Sununu that endorsed Powell? Romney? And Kasich?
THAT Sununu?
Just a short while back Trump was courting democrats, and I don’t give a rip about what party runs NY where he run business, so if he is now a conservative I congratulate him. If so, he needs to come right out and address this “accusation” and say something like maybe I was but I am smarter now, etc...
Yes, that Sanunu. Didn’t he also support amnesty?
First time I have ever agreed with Sununu.
Yes. He supported amnesty.
From the mouth of an amnesty loving, cheap labor pimp.
Trump = silver-tongued con man.
Not interested in the least in opinions from the Bush camp.
Cruz = Elmer Gantry
Trump: Moderate Nationalist Chainsaw
Sununu: has-been, trying to stay relevant
More lies.
Whatever.
