New Hampshire Republican Senate nominee Don Bolduc on Thursday said the 2020 presidential election was not stolen, reversing course after claiming during his primary that former President Trump won.
During an appearance on Fox News’s “America’s Newsroom,” host Dana Perino asked Bolduc if he still stood by a letter he signed with 123 other retired generals and admirals casting doubt on the election.
“I’ve spent the past couple of weeks talking to Granite Staters all over the state, from every party, and I have come to the conclusion — and I want to be definitive on this — the election was not stolen,” Bolduc said.
“Was there fraud? Yes.” he continued. “Is that a concern of Granite Staters all over the state? Yes. Is there a responsibility for public servants in elected positions to ensure that our citizens have faith in their voting system? Yes.”
As recently as August, Bolduc said he stood by the unfounded claim that Trump won the presidency in 2020.

August (during a debate): "I signed a letter with 120 other generals and admirals saying Trump won the election, and damn it, I stand by [it],"
September: “I’ve spent the past couple of weeks talking to Granite Staters all over the state, from every party, and I have come to the conclusion — and I want to be definitive on this — the election was not stolen.”
As Steve would say, "Remarkable."

Well, there are Republicans with money (to be blunt) who make deals with the DNC to 'become' Democrats and largely fund their own Congressional races as the DNC's chosen candidates. Political expediency seems to be baked into the system.
