Sununu: Trump is 'Phony', No Conservative
Newsmax ^ | 1/11/2016 | Bill Hoffman

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?

Cruz is a liberal on illegals and legal immigration. See for yourself. I will let the senator do the talking on recorded video. That is to be expected since Cruz received tens of millions from rich donors. Robert Mercer alone contributed $31 million.

“Anyone who believes the government has the right to the any private property they want to is a socialist”

Quit acting like a Guy Fawkes anarchist.

Roads, highways, electrical lines, water lines, natural gas pipes, military bases, and airports are all products of eminent domain.

“This the same Sununu that endorsed Powell? Romney? And Kasich?

THAT Sununu?”

Just think if Sununu moved to AZ, he would be a desert RINO....
