welcome to msnbc s special coverage of the new hampshire primary. we re here in manchester, new hampshire, for what could be the defining contest of the 2024 republican primary. for republican voters, there s now just one alternative to an ex-president who incited an insurrection, faces 91 felony counts in 4 jurisdictions who says he want thes to be dictator for a day. i could really go on and on about trump s alarming statements, but we don t have all day for that. the one person left standing in his way is former south carolina governor nikki haley. she spent the morning in new hampshire. trump did a stop and his surrogates marjorie taylor greene are also crisscrossing the state for him. out there campaigning on his behalf. haley now has that two-person contest she s always wanted. but everything suggests that she s an uphill climb. the last tracking poll out this morning shows trump up by 22 points. that s a lot. and over the last few weeks, the haley campaign has be ....
i think democratic culture has too many pretty females. c it s too much. don t eat hamburgers. don t watch footballs . all right, we re kind. of like that. leave me alone. hoaxes aren t working, and the left is eating its own. so many have contributed so e significantly to the well-being of our country. we nee our coud people who are willine to work hard. biden migrants are illingusi. and killing, but they re good for business. d we did not have that type of relationship. we were interviewing other typ t people for the position. well, position wasn t in that positionhe like this. p lover loverboy thrusts himself into the limelight. poor, he hid it. he hid it. plus, he has a five year plan.a. what is it?t is don it?t die. historian victor davis hanson says democrats are headinctorg into a 1980 carr fuque blowout and the party s descending into a full left-wing meltdown. democrats have beeown.n left powerless over what vha says is the escalating demen ....
In the popular vote so the ability for a woman to beat trump is already been proven. and, look, this is the message she s got to convey right now. because the whole challenge in this primary is head over heart. people want to be inspired but they want to win. and in their minds they keep going back to who can win, who can win. so all of the other candidates besides biden have to keep making that case. i thought it was interesting that she chose to do anti-corruption and citizens united had a number of candidates who ran on that issue in the 2018 midterm and won. and i think it is like 78% of battleground state voters, republicans and democrats, support that. so that is struck me as a way to try to reach out to some of the moderate republicans as well. so this electability argument is new, i remember in 2004 people said howard dean is inspiring but he can t beat bush. look at who voters think could beat poll. ....
That is frankly untrue and they re buying it. all right. you have to give a last piece of advice. you played president trump which is maybe my favorite fun fact about you, when hillary clinton was preparing for debates. knowing how he plays the game what are you looking for in democratic candidates tonight and who could face off against him? he is not playing any traditional debate game. no. he is the worst debater in the world. that makes it tough to go against him. the worst or the best? he s the worst. you can make fun of hillary clinton all you want about 2016, but she kicked his whatever in at least two of the three and the middle one was probably a ko if not a tko. i think the problem and weird dynamic going on which ali referred to is the thing you hear most from the democratic primary electorate is we want someone who could beat trump, which is sort of funny. i think in 2004 we wanted someone to beat bush. in you always want the guy to ....
We saw back then that s when carey, dean, edwards tlm. there was a big jumpable in iowa. you had democrats saying the same thing. they wanted to beat w and bush. the minute john kerry won iowa everything changed. they wanted to unify and beat bush. i think that dynamic that we saw way back then is something to keep in mind when we get closer to the caucus date early next year. another thing is the whole issue of abortion and how that relates to joe biden. they were in the field through wednesday. it was wednesday that the report first broke that story that he had supported the hyde amendment. they have all in one way or another voted for the hyde amendment because it has been in so many big reconciliation bills, but he actually voiced support for the hyde amendment for the federal ban on money for ....
