Summary

Veteran Pollster Scott Rasmussen joins the show to talk about Trump’s decisive win last night in the New Hampshire primary, winning by over 12 points against Nikki Haley, further reaffirming his statements after the Iowa Primary that the “race is over,” Donald Trump will be the 2024 Republican Presidential Nominee. The New Hampshire primary results also reaffirmed that the number one voting issue for Americans right now is border security. Rasmussen said, “people are connecting the border crisis with the Fentanyl crisis. They are seeing weaknesses in national security, connecting the border problem to what's happening in the Middle East or Ukraine. There's some general fears that are going on, when you have a phenomenon like black Democrats suing their city over the migrant crisis, that’s something that tells you this is a huge issue. And I think one of the one of the reasons it's a big issue is the political elites don't see it as a big issue and many Democrats want to propose a solution that would would not please most voters. And so all of a sudden, you've got the situation that the Democratic Party is having a hard time grappling with, nothing is being done and it’s moving up as a decisive issue. When you talk about the economy, it's always like a number one or two issue, almost always number one. But the things they say are bothering them aren't as clear cut as they are on border security.”
