Republican Gov. Chris Sununu did his best to try to build sympathy for Trump and portray him as the victim ahead of any potential indictments. Sununu made an appearance on this Sunday's State of the Union on CNN, and was asked by host Jake Tapper what his reaction was to Trump announcing that he expects to be charged by the Manhattan DA this coming Tuesday.
Sununu immediately attempted to downplay the charges, gin up support for Trump from his MAGA base, and pretend that Democrats are somehow responsible for all the leaks that have been coming straight from TrumpWorld, not the DA or the police.
SUNUNU: I can tell you, I think it's building a lot of sympathy for the former president. I think the fact that I was with -- coffee this morning with some folks, and they're -- none of them were big Trump supporters, but they all said they felt like he was being attacked.
And, as you pointed out, this is likely some sort of misdemeanor on an issue seven years ago. This has nothing to do with January 6. There's folks out there that still thinks this has something to do with January 6.
