'Effectively The Nominee' - Biden Gets Horrific News About The 2024 Election

Hey ladies and gentlemen, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America and things are looking

fantastic for former President Donald Trump. Before we get started, please make sure you like, comment, share and subscribe

You know, Donald Trump's poll numbers against the rest of the Republican field have been

skyrocketing for months. There's no one anywhere close to him and the egos of the people that are going against

him, it seems, well, they're unending. And because of that, their own egos will very likely make former President Donald Trump

the nominee. At least that's what Hugh Hewitt believes. Let's take a look

I endorse New Balance wholeheartedly, without a doubt. It is endorsement season

In fact, we had one on the show last night, Bob Vander Plaats in Iowa

We're back with our panel, Trey, Steph and Hugh. So Hugh, you speak with the American people every day

Do these endorsements move the needle? Yes, they do. In Iowa, Bob Vander Plaats is probably the most influential non-elected political activist

in the United States. Every time that there's a Republican primary there, combined with the governor there, that's

a big one to punch for Governor DeSantis. But the reality is, if there's more than one contender among Governor DeSantis and Christie

and Ambassador Haley come South Carolina or Florida, then former President Trump is

effectively one. They can't go into Florida with more than one candidate

And Mr. Ramaswamy doesn't really matter in this calculation. If the field doesn't consolidate, I don't see how Donald Trump isn't the nominee

Let's take a look at the RealClearPolitics average of recent polls in Iowa with President

Trump, former President Trump, up nearly 30 points over Governor DeSantis. Then there's Nikki Haley

Tim Scott has since dropped out. But Governor DeSantis has picked up a couple of huge endorsements in Iowa

Steph, your expectations. Look, I mean, these endorsements in Iowa are huge for DeSantis, who has been struggling

to gain some momentum back over the past few months. And this is especially important because if you're looking at some of the national, the

averages of Iowa polls, Nikki Haley has been starting to gain on him in Iowa as well

And of course, as he points out, this is really a race for second place, a race for

being the Trump alternative here. And so DeSantis really needs to get out of the park in Iowa if he's going to remain the

most likely anti-Trump candidate. If the polls are off tray, and that's a big if, we'll see

And if former President Trump does not have that massive of a lead and DeSantis or Governor

Haley in your home state of South Carolina pull off an upset, is it game on at that point

It would if all of those, if all of those hypotheticals were to come true, Mike

I'm not sure they will. And look, Hugh Hewitt and Steph have forgotten more about politics than I will ever know

I actually don't think endorsements matter that much. With the one exception, I think President Trump's endorsement matters

And I don't know this for sure, but I'm pretty sure he's going to endorse himself

So yeah, Ron got Kim Reynolds, Bob Vander Plaat. Good for him

I'd rather have them than not. But I don't think it's going to move the needle. He is the prohibitive favorite

Nikki Haley is rising. If you got one on one early enough, would it be interesting? Yes

But to Hugh's point, it ain't one on one right now. And until it gets to be one on one, Donald Trump will be the prohibitive favorite

Hugh, we're nearly out of time, but if there's an upset on the horizon, where

You see, if they don't consolidate around one person, Trump's base is too strong

They're not splintering. And if one person is not going against Trump, it's all but over

I've said that. Hewitt said that. A lot of people have said that

But there's a fallacy in that as well, because a lot of people believe that if Nikki Haley

let's just say Nikki Haley drops out, Chris Christie drops out, and it's just Ron DeSantis

left, that everybody who was supporting Nikki Haley and everybody who was supporting Chris

Christie is going to run to Ron DeSantis. That's likely not the case. There'll likely be a split between that person and Trump

And so Trump's still going to win. This is mathematical at this point

Unless something astronomical happens, this thing's over. And it's going to be Trump versus Biden or if Biden drops out, whoever the Democrats

put in there. I want to know what you think about this story. Please let me know in the comments

Do you see this happening? Do you see any kind of race happening with the Republican Party

Or is the news just trying to make news? Let me know
