There were five things learned from the New Hampshire primary

The Haley-Trump Rematch: The Sweet State of New Hampshire and the End of His Journey to the Nominal Prelate State

New Hampshire has a lot of independent and college-educated voters which made it the best place to try and stop Donald Trump’s march to the nomination.

On Tuesday, Haley’s campaign wrote a memo saying that she could compete in several states, including the 16 states that vote on March 5.

“New Hampshire is first in the nation; it is not last in the nation,” Haley said. “This race is far from over. There are dozens of states left to go. And the next one is my sweet state of South Carolina.”

“You’ve all heard the chatter among the political class,” Haley said. They’re falling over in themselves, saying the race is over. Well, I have news for all of them: … This race is far from over. There are dozens of states left to go.”

Despite the loss in New Hampshire, Nikki Haley is adamant that she will continue to her home state of South Carolina and the rest of the states on March 5.

In New Hampshire, he withstood an aggressive challenge from his former United Nations ambassador, Nikki Haley, who is the final major Republican candidate standing in Trump’s way after other hopefuls dropped out.

She had a very favorable situation in New Hampshire. Independent voters known as “undeclared” in the state can vote in the Republican primary. Haley and her allied super PACs spent more than $31 million on television ads in the small state, doubling pro-Trump spending. Chris Sununu, the popular Republican governor of the state, supported her and even voted for her.

There is a town in New Hampshire. The Associated Press reported that Donald Trump had won the New Hampshire primary, which puts him on a clear path to securing the Republican nomination.

Deaniacs in New Hampshire weren’t enough for Biden to win as a write-in candidate in Tuesday’s Democratic primary.

“Tonight’s results confirm Donald Trump has all but locked up the GOP nomination, and the election denying, anti-freedom MAGA movement has completed its takeover of the Republican Party,” Biden’s campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez said in a statement.

Short of something extraordinary taking place in the next month to change that, the country is in for a Biden-Trump rematch, and the party apparatuses are preparing for that.

Haley has made central to her campaign the idea that she is the candidate who has the best chance of beating President Biden. There is evidence that she would be a better general- election candidate than Trump.

John Cornyn came out and endorsed Trump Tuesday night, despite his ambivalence towards the former president.

What’s more, Trump and his allies are vowing to go after Haley even harder than they already have — and Trump has already promoted a “birther” conspiracy theory against her, falsely accusing her of being ineligible to be president.

Is Haley really going to be able to hold onto the resources it requires for her to stay on the air in a significant way for that length of time? Can she maintain her loose coalition, even as the party moves increasingly toward rallying around Trump?

She believes that there are lots of people who haven’t cast a vote yet and that she’s increased in her support. That is, but the road ahead doesn’t look good for her.

The End of Hillary and John Haley’s ‘Uphill Climb’: Campaigning against Repentance in the House of Representatives

We were told that the first impeachment of Trump or Robert Muller’s investigation would stop him. We told ourselves that the methodical work of the congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6 storming of the U.S. Capitol would seal his political doom. We told ourselves that he couldn’t survive four indictments encompassing 91 felony counts. We told ourselves that his outbursts were finally growing too vicious, his temper too volcanic, his lies too outrageous and ornate.

I kept hearing about her strength and Donald Trump’s weakness, as political watchers turned a myth into a slogan, persuading themselves of her power and danger not only in the Granite State but beyond it. They wanted to believe that Trump might loosen his grip on the Republican Party. They were desperate for assurance that he wouldn’t return to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Even Haley supporters recognize though that it’s an “uphill climb,” as former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, a former candidate for this very nomination who dropped out after Iowa, said during NPR live coverage of the primary.

If Haley does decide to stop her campaign by February 17, it would be the earliest such a candidate has wrapped up the nomination in the last 40 years.

John Kerry wrapped up the 2004 Democratic presidential nomination on Feb. 18 when then-Vermont Gov. Howard Dean dropped out of the race. The earliest person to reach the magic number of delegates was Republican John McCain in 2008. The primaries and caucuses of that year were intense, with states competing to be first. This year they started two weeks earlier.
