Electoral ‘ass kicking’

Donald Trump's campaign predicts that the former president will lock up the 2024 Republican presidential nomination by the middle of next month. 

Pointing to the former president's very large double-digit lead over Nikki Haley in the latest polls in Saturday's South Carolina GOP primary, Trump's campaign argued Tuesday in a memo that Haley's White House bid will end "fittingly, in her home state."

Going further, the Trump campaign memo forecasts an "ass-kicking in the making in South Carolina" for Haley, and that "the end is near" for her presidential run due to "a very serious math problem" she has in the race to lock up enough delegates to win the GOP nomination.

But Haley, despite the expected loss in South Carolina, insists she will stay in the race through Super Tuesday on March 5.

"I promise you this, I am in this fight. I will take the bruises. I will take the cuts," she told supporters at a large rally in this city in upstate South Carolina on Monday night.
