With Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis dropping out to make New Hampshire a 2-horse race, some are expecting a majority of Mr. DeSantis’s supporters to vote for former President Donald Trump in the state’s Tuesday primary.
NTD spoke to Jeff Crouere, political analyst and a TV and radio host, to find out more about his take on the chances of Nikki Haley finding a path to victory. He also outlined the choice now facing Republican voters.
“When Donald Trump burst upon the scene in 2016, you had a Republican Party that was dominated by that wing—people like John McCain and Mitt Romney, and the Bushes. They believed in more of a globalist point of view, more of an interventionist point of view, foreign policy, believed in the United States taking a leadership role in NATO. Not really strong on the border, more pro-free trade, not fair trade,” said Mr. Crouere.
“So it was really a throwback to some of those administrations that we saw between Reagan and Trump. Now, of course, Nikki Haley is getting the support from a lot of those folks. She’s bringing in big money. And they don’t like the ‘Make America Great Again’ policies of Donald Trump, they don’t like to focus on the border, to focus on ‘America First.’ So it’s a different point of view as to whether the United States should be more isolationist or more interventionist,” he said.
“Trump’s going to win big in Nevada, South Carolina. If she can’t win her home state, I don’t think there is any kind of a road to victory for Nikki Haley.”
