New Hampshire Rep. Annie Kuster, who is retiring from Congress, claimed Trump “tried to kill” her on Jan. 6, 2021.
Kuster, who has represented New Hampshire’s 2nd District since 2013, told the Washington, D.C., outlet Roll Call that she had “always said I wasn’t going to stay forever” and that Trump “tried to kill me once.”
“I was one of the last members of Congress in the gallery on Jan. 6, and as it turns out, we have the security footage that shows it was only 30 seconds from when I was able to evacuate that the insurrectionists were in that hallway hunting for us with zip ties and bear mace and who knows what else,” Kuster told Roll Call. “I just felt like, he tried to kill me once. I’m not available for it again.”
Kuster acknowledged that most voters in the 2024 elections wanted a different administration because of concerns such as inflation, the border crisis and rising crime and public safety problems.
“And there’s a lot of reasons that people had for their vote, but I don’t believe the approach of the Trump administration is going to fix those issues for them. I mean, just take tariffs. If he puts those on, the price of food is going to go way up,” she told Roll Call.
She also blamed the loss of the Democrats in the 2024 election on how many young voters felt that “for a pretty long time, the face of our party has been octogenarians.”
“We somehow have missed the opportunity to connect with a whole generation of young people that we assumed, just by the laws of nature, would be more progressive and more close to our perspective,” she said.
She predicted the Democrats would win in the midterms in 2026 and the presidential election in 2028 due to “the consequences of [Trump’s] policies.”
“I’m going to stay involved, but not on the ballot,” she added, explaining that she would continue her work of pushing for the election of Democratic women to claw back to a majority.

Well, it is a good thing you are no longer an elected representative. The democrat party no longer or ever represents the will of the people but the destruction of our country with their only agenda is to have the power and control over how the country is run.
I actually believe she quit to continue what must be a fruitless search for a willing mate. I suggest that she look in the blind community since her looks would scare a pig off.
Well, at least there is one less radical liberal, uninformed Democrat in congress to block Trump’s re establishing America to its greatness.
I am not surprised at all by this, The Dem’s have become so accustomed to lying, that they believe their own lies. Congress will most likely be a better place with one less lyar
LOL. Trump tried to kill me. Yeah, I don’t think so. Whatever makes you feel better as you leave the sinking ship of the Democratic Party. Your party’s actions is what led to this, not anything Trump did or said. The American people are finally waking up to the misdeeds you’ve been a part of for decades. Probably good to get out now.
Yet another delusional Marxist Dem goes sailing off into the sunset. Good riddance….
With her emotion based reasoning, she does not seem fit for public office.
Great! Now I have to go to the doctor because my sides are strained from laughing so hard. Zip-ties and bear mace?
Get out and stay out you lying pos
No great loss that I can see. Farewell!
This woman is a PERFECT example of the idiots that have been elected to SERVE the American people. They are senseless individuals without the sense to come in out of the rain. People like her, AOC, Rosa D, and others are examples of a broken election process fraught with opportunity to cheat and the senseless representation of us Americans not paying close enough attention to who we put in office. We need better that what we have and we need to take responsibility to get these idiots out of office with fair and ethical election processes, term limits and (I hate to say) psychological examinations. No! No psychological examinations. Every additional process opens the door for more corruption and opportunities to place a puppet owned by an elite in critical positions of power.
She and President elect Trump can both speak in detail about “near death experiences”. His lengthy….hers? 3 seconds. Really ??
Sorry, just another liberal socialist democrat nutcase.!!
Kuster is a looney tune. Democrats will lie and exaggerate about anything to get attention.
Just another ignorant Demorat jackass.
This woman is crazy. It is time for her to leave as she is of no use to her constituents.
Rep.Kuster, Are you out of your mind or what. President Trump NEVER tried to kill anyone, if you want to blame someone Blame Pelosi & the FBI. They planned the whole situation so they could Blame Trump. Pelosi has even admitted that it was her fault because she NEVER answered about getting extra police protection. Quit believing all of the Demonrats lies, because that is all they know how to do.
