0:28.1

President Trump is basically now declaring the primaries over. And look, if you look at the national polling data

0:33.6

right now, he is up by a long shot on the rest of the field. If you compare this to, say, 2016, at this point in the 2016 race, Trump was up maybe 10 to 12 points on the rest of the field. At this point, Trump is up by virtually all of the polling about 40 points over the rest of the field. The latest economist you gov poll, for example, has Trump at 53% to Sansis at 14 and everybody else well below 10. The Monmouth poll before that has Trump at 55 to Sancted 17.

Everybody else well below 10. However, this is not a national primary. When you look at Iowa, for example, Trump's lead, it starts to shrink a little bit. Not that he's not in the lead, but it's closer to 30 points than to 40 points. When you move on to New Hampshire, his lead again is closer

to 30 points than it is to 40 points. At least 45 to 50 percent of the Republican base in these

but would be open to others.

1:28.3

This is what the polling is showing right now. Well, Trump would like to cancel all future debates

1:32.2

because he says that we need to train our fire on Biden. Now, that's kind of an ironic claim coming

1:37.2

from President Trump, who's trained most of his fire at this point on various prosecutors

1:40.7

going after him or on Ron DeSantis. He's not trained in enormous amount of fire on President Biden to this point. However, trying to end the primaries early is

1:49.2

obviously in Trump's best interest. Whether the RNC goes along with anything like that is another

1:54.2

question. According to media yesterday, the Trump campaign has now asked the RNC to put an end

1:59.2

to any further primary debates following a second debate that former president Donald Trump skipped. A note from senior advisor
