Trump’s ambassador to Iceland was, by most accounts, a disaster. But that isn’t stopping him from looking at a Nevada Senate run—touting his retweets and Facebook posts.
Jeffrey Ross Gunter’s year-and-a-half tenure as U.S. ambassador to Iceland under Donald Trump was, by many accounts, a chaotic mess.
At 80 on the list was Gunter’s creation of “three Facebook videos to inspire people during the COVID-19 pandemic,” which created solidarity between the United States and Icelandic people and inspired many in these difficult times.” The former ambassador’s list of self-identified accomplishments—and the failures he conspicuously omitted from it—is a good encapsulation of why Gunter is not exactly a top-tier recruit for Republicans.In Nevada, Republicans will need a strong challenger to Rosen in 2024. Last year’s race between Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto and Adam Laxalt was the closest Senate contest of the cycle, decided by just 8,000 votes.
But Gunter’s potential Senate bid could be tripped up by ties to the GOP that aren’t totally rock-solid—and ties to his adopted home state that appear flimsy.
