New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu has endorsed former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley for president, stating his belief in her leadership capabilities. In a recent interview, Governor Sununu weighed in on the ongoing debate surrounding border security and its connection to other national issues.

When asked about President Donald Trump's statements regarding the southern border and the possibility of a 100% chance of terror attacks, Governor Sununu acknowledged that political interests often influence the president's statements. However, he highlighted the need to address the escalating number of border crossings, emphasizing that President Joe Biden has the authority to enact policies to stem the tide.

Governor Sununu expressed his frustration with both sides using politics to avoid taking action. He voiced his support for a proposed bill on border security, emphasizing that it is a step in the right direction, though not a comprehensive solution. He also emphasized the importance of securing the border and allocating resources to address other national security concerns, such as supporting Ukraine and countering terrorism in the Middle East.

The governor noted that securing the border is a top priority for Americans, as demonstrated by recent polls. He called on politicians in Washington, D.C., to set aside politics and prioritize the nation's security by taking tangible steps to address this issue.

Governor Sununu also addressed the importance of consistency in foreign policy, criticizing those who support bombing Iran but oppose funding for Ukraine. He called for elected officials to remain true to their principles and maintain a consistent stance on international affairs. He emphasized the need to protect allies, demonstrate American resolve, and maintain peace through strength.

The interview highlighted Governor Sununu's endorsement of Nikki Haley for president and his stance on key issues such as border security, Ukraine funding, and American foreign policy. As a prominent Republican governor, his endorsement carries weight in the political landscape, and his perspectives shed light on the current debates within the Republican Party and the broader national context.
