Trump trounces Haley in her home state
Trump Triumphs in South Carolina, Signals General Election Pivot
In a resounding victory, Donald Trump dominated the South Carolina primary, leaving Nikki Haley in the dust and hinting at his strategic shift towards the general election.
Worth noting: The defeat holds particular significance as Haley, who governed the state from 2011 to 2017, faced a humiliating loss on her home turf.
The breakdown: Just moments after the polls closed at 7 PM EST, pollsters wasted no time in declaring Trump’s triumph. When all the votes were tallied, he emerged victorious over Haley by a commanding 20-point margin, securing nearly every one of the 50 delegates up for grabs.
Trump’s Win:
– Trump: 59.8% (47 delegates)
– Haley: 39.5% (3 delegates)
Countering the liberal narrative: Despite claims from left-leaning media outlets that Trump’s 20-point victory was modest for a presumptive nominee, they conveniently omitted the fact that Haley actively sought support from Democrat voters to inflate her numbers. Unfortunate.
On a national scale, a whopping 77.1% of Republican voters favor Trump over Haley’s meager 15.3%, according to the RCP average. Trump has consistently secured wide-margin victories in every state primary thus far.
Globalist defection: In a swift response to her defeat, the Koch family, notorious for their open-border advocacy, announced the cessation of financial support for Haley’s campaign.
Trump’s strategic shift: Notably, Trump refrained from uttering Haley’s name even once in his victory speech, choosing instead to emphasize his pivot towards the general election:
The primary ends tonight, and it is time to turn to the general election so we can defeat Crooked Joe and end his assault on the American people.
The South Carolina triumph not only underscores Trump’s unyielding dominance within the Republican party but also serves as a strategic marker in his trajectory towards the broader electoral battlefield.
