Gov. Chris Sununu says almost all of the 50 governors get along…except ‘prick’ Gavin Newsom who ‘no one cares for’ and ‘complete jacka**’ former Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
The New Hampshire Republican governor poked fun at his Democratic colleagues during a fireside chat at the Reagan Institute Summit on Education in Washington, D.C.
‘Look, almost all the governors get along,’ he said. ‘In my eight years, there’s really only maybe been two – maybe a third – but two governors that really nobody likes or particularly cares for.’
When pressed about which governors are on the outs with the rest, he replied: ‘Andrew Cuomo…complete jacka** no one likes him,’ to laughter.
‘And I gotta be honest. No one cares for Gavin [Newsom]. Gavin’s just a prick, excuse me,’ he went on.
‘He just is. It’s really disappointing. All of us got along for awhile, but even the Democrats – they won’t tell you out loud – but behind closed doors they’re like ‘oh God, look who’s coming.”
‘They all roll their eyes because…I’m sure that’ll hit social media who cares,’ he joked.
He went on to say he gets along with other Democrats despite their vastly different policies – including Phil Murphy of New Jersey and the governor of Oregon Tina Kotek.
Sununu talked about the importance of education and how he’s prioritizing civics in particular in his state.
He said teaching kids of the ‘pros and cons’ of where they source their information, and to not always believing the first thing they read, is critical.

Earlier at the Reagan Institute Education Summit, Gov. Glenn Youngkin of Virginia discussed how he prioritizes education initiatives as leader.
He told the audience that he wakes up every morning with a prayer about how to better serve residents of the commonwealth.
Education is at ‘the top of the list’ to be able to give people ‘confidence’ to achieve an ‘expectation of excellence,’ he explained.
The crowd burst into applause when the governor talked about the importance of providing kids with an education on the key foundation of the U.S. including the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
He said that students in the commonwealth are tested on their knowledge of those critical foundations, among other important civics topics.
And Gov. Kim Reynolds, R-Iowa, who joined virtually due to recent tornadoes in the state, expressed the importance of protecting access to school choice.
‘I was hearing it over and over from parents,’ she said. ‘I want to be involved in choosing the best facilities for my children.’
The New Hampshire governor poked fun at his Democratic colleagues during a fireside chat at the Reagan Institute Summit on Education in Washington, D.C.
She said that her ‘universal school choice plan’ has been implemented over three years.
Parents have the choice to choose between public and private schools, ‘wherever they think best for their children to receive an education.’
