Maureen Dowd’s sister is backing Trump after verdict
The Hill ^ | 06/02/2024 | Sarah Fortinsky

New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd said this weekend that her sister is backing former President Trump’s reelection bid following the guilty verdict in the New York hush money criminal trial.

In a column published Saturday, Dowd said after the guilty verdict, she called her brother and her sister — both of whom, she said, are Republicans who had hoped for a Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley victory — to gauge whether Trump’s conviction had been a final straw for them.

Dowd said she was surprised to hear that her sister was swayed in the other direction.

“I wasn’t going to vote for Trump,” Maureen Dowd’s sister, Peggy, told her, according to Dowd’s column. “But now I am because I thought this whole thing was a sham.”

Peggy Noonan

Peggy married, but didn't take her husband's last name. They had a civil divorce, but she still is married to him in the eyes of the Church.

Oops! I read years ago that they are sisters, but it appears they are not. Sorry.

“Apparently her sister is smarter than she is.”

Baked potatoes are smarter than Maureen Dowd.
