Trump on tariffs (and when the new ones tank the economy, will he blame China? Or Obama?)? Or Corey Lewandowski?
Speaking to NBC News reporter Ali Vitali, brief former campaign manager to Donald Trump, Corey Lewandowski, is considering going after Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) next year.
“I’m going to look at it very seriously,” Lewandowski said. “Jeannie Shaheen has failed New Hampshire and voted in lockstep with [Sen.’ Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and [Speaker] Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). The people of New Hampshire deserve better.”
But Republicans in New Hampshire are not happy with the idea. According to The Daily Beast, Republicans in the state are urging him not to go through with it. One GOP official said “He is as much of a shadow of the president as you can find. That will hurt us down ballot,” while another said “It would certainly give more ammunition to Jeanne Shaheen.”
Though New Hampshire is traditionally a swing state, it is not expected to be terribly competitive in 2020, as Trump is massively unpopular there — the latest Morning Consult tracker shows him underwater there by 22 points. Consequently, the Senate race is unlikely to be competitive either — there were whispers that Gov. Chris Sununu would jump into the race, but he ruled it out.
ETTD, so Trump wins, I guess. (Except we all lose if the economy tanks due to new tariffs on China we have to pay for; in more ways than one. ETTD is a basic law of the universe.)
