Summary

A victory in the granite state for former President Donald Trump effectively ended Nikki Haley’s shot at the 2024 GOP presidential nomination. But the former governor of South Carolina announced Tuesday she will continue the fight in her home state, even though she is expected to lose by an even larger margin there. President Joe Biden, meanwhile, handily — and, as expected— won the New Hampshire write-in campaign, upsetting Minnesota Rep. Dean Phillips who hedged much of his campaign’s bets on success in the state. The biggest takeaway from the night, as Playbook co-author Ryan Lizza tells Eugene Daniels, is that all signs point to a repeat of the 2020 race.

0:44.7	right now, and Donald Trump is projected the winner, obviously, but also is about 10 or 11 points
0:51.6	in front of Nikki Haley. Nikki Haley came out first today, which is very smart for the person that doesn't win,
0:57.3	because you can try and set the expectations.
1:01.0	How do you think her speech turned out?
1:02.9	And in New Hampshire, it's usually where the second place person kind of fudges the numbers and pretends they won.
1:09.2	It's where we got the Yes We Can speech from Barack Obama.

1:16.6	Our historian who looked up all these in our group chat,
1:19.6	how did you think her speech measured up and saying what happened tonight?
1:25.0	Look, yeah, she did this sort of typical things you do when you want to take
1:29.6	credit for coming up short. She came out right away just after the race was called, and she gave
