Okay, here we are, it is 9 00 p. M. On the west coast, and i am jen psaki, and the midnight shift is the best shift to talk politics here at that time big table to break down everything that happened tonight. Were going to learn more tonight, too, and we do have a lot to talk about, because results from 16 states ask one territory, dont forget that one, just brought us one big step closer to a General Election rematch between President Joe Biden and donald trump, and trump has unsurprisingly won a bunch of states bringing his total degrees to 900, so if we take a look at trump with the numbers, to catch everyone, four indictments, 91 criminal charges, two impeachments and on the democratic side, President Biden has swept every state so far and to jp, and another frontrunner that hit the magic number, those that need to clinch the nomination, but theyre both pretty darn close. Now a major outstanding question coming into tonight we still have, not about trump or biden but about nikki ha
State yesterday on Super Tuesday. Brian so bill melugin is live outside the headquarters in South Carolina, where she is expected to speak. I thought it was telling when you said there is no eventing before Super Tuesday and now there is a big event at 10 00 today. What can you tell us . We can confirm that nikki haley is going to be dropping out of this president ial race, delivering remarks in the charleston area around 10 00 a. M. We are told she is not going to endorse donald trump, she will call for him to earn support of republicans and independents not supporting him right now and saying she gave voters in the republican primary a serious choice in a fractured party. She has been getting consistent chunks. She won vermont last night. She says those voters are not going anywhere. We interviewed nikki haley saturday, she said she may not be winning right out, but there are factions voting for her and the question becomes after she delivers this etch spoo, if not endorsing donald t
Guys. I will tell you this is actually bad news for the Biden Campaign because, for a long time, they have been saying that the longer nikki haley stays in the race the better for them. You had a second person on the headlines in the airwaves who was slamming donald trump as a risk to democracy. That and is how the Biden Campaign has been framing their 2024 approach. Basically hammering on the threat to democracy that trump poses. Hearkening back to january 6th. Searing in peoples minds images of his efforts to overturn the election. And they have been more than happy to see nikki haley echoing some of their messaging. And having it get out and having voters express to them about about donald trump, republicans, expressing that they cant get behind the likely and presumptive nominee up until now. So, the other factor is that while the biden team knows that they win, if donald trump is in the race, thats how they see it, this is certainly unwelcomed news. I think they would have liked t
Trace thank you, good evening, im trace gallagher. Its 11 00 pm on the east coast, 8 00 in los angeles and welcome to our special Super Tuesday Election Coverage, the biggest night yet in the race for the white house. Polls closing right this minute in california and utah but as it stands, as you saw, donald trump having a very good night. Already sweeping the majority of the states in place so far. It looks like about 11. We will get to that as the night goes on. After tonight, winning a windfall of delegates, the former president is expected to be a stones throw away from clinching the gop nomination. Meantime from the Nikki Haley Campaign, we are hearing crickets. We are now being told that she will not be making any public remarks tonight and of course if that changes we will bring you that. The president also not speaking. But we will be speaking for the next two hours. We have team fox coverage. Live at the Trump Campaign headquarters in florida. Bill in South Carolina with how n
