'The Trump brand doesn't work': New Hampshire GOP Gov. Sununu blames Donald Trump for Republican losses
New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu blamed election underperformance from Republicans on former President Donald Trump, saying his "brand doesn't work."
Republican New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu pinned the GOP's underperformance in recent elections on former President Donald Trump, saying “the Trump brand just doesn’t work.”
“It’s about the former president more than anything,” Sununu said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “I’ve had school board members, Republican school board members, that have lost their seat because they felt like they had to constantly answer for being a Trump Republican,” Sununu said.
Trump’s negative influence on elections, Sununu argued, bleeds into local elections at all levels.
“It isn’t just the federal seats. It’s the governorships, the school boards, the congressional seats, all of them, especially in a place like New Hampshire where we can kind of get back and forth. We’re very independent minded. The Trump brand doesn’t work,” Sununu said. “It just doesn’t.”

It's not "his brand" that the problem. It's the republicans inability to have thier own platform that is the problem.
"OTHER GUYS BAD VOTE ME" Is not a political platform.

It's fine they're quietly subverting all of the lower level authorities while nobody is paying attention so that's when they get arrested for the truth coming out the police chief will just let them go because he's one of them.
Their platform is simple: be against the Democrats platform.
its really more of an anti-platform
Yep, similar to my thought. If you think "brand" is the problem here, not a demonstrated lack of morality with regard to the rule of law and the rights of your fellow citizens, you are just as bad as Trump.
For real. What happened to a normal conservative platform without any nutty conspiracies, racism, or climate denial tacked on?
Because the normal conservative platform, less regulation and lower taxes on corporations, leads to bad climate and systemic racism being unaddressed. It's not a thing people want.
Reagan. That campaign and presidency brainwashed an entire generation into believing greed is good, and that asshole generation is still running the country right now.
It wasn't selling enough hotcakes, so they switched to rage bait
It's called the Democratic Platform these days.
You can't have a conservative platform without any of those. They will eventually lead to that. That's why I don't vote for moderates or conservatives unless I do not have a choice.
...in the modern day, yes. There used to be real conservatives, but as their economic policies shifted left (necessarily) their social policies shifted right.
