ADVERTISEMENTOn Tuesday, Sununu claimed that members of Christie’s leadership team were “having those discussions with him,” referring to dropping out.
“He has no ground game,” the governor added. “He’s not even trying, even in the next two or three days, he could be here doing 10 events a day — he’s doing like two … He’s running out of resources, he’s not campaigning in any other state. I think those discussions are happening.”
