However, there was no transfer, and the gap between the two candidates narrowed. Despite this, the Haley she didn’t manage to perform the miracle, despite the great efforts of the state governor Chris Sununu, his staunch supporter and staunch anti-Trumpian. “It’s a bad night for her – Trump said in his victory speech, amid laughter from those present – and you really have a governor who doesn’t know what the hell to do, he convinced the Democrats to come and vote.” Then he started attacking Biden: “Remember that we won in 2016 and we also won in 2020. We defeated Biden, and who couldn’t? He doesn’t know how to put two sentences in a row, he doesn’t know how to find the stairs to get off the stage.”
In the other field, Nikki Haley she finds herself in a difficult situation, there was no victory which would have given a psychological shock to both her and her supporters, but at the same time the points of separation are not enough to throw in the towel. “Trump is the only Republican that Biden can beat – she said in her defeat speech – let’s move on to conquer the other states. A victory for Trump in the primaries means a victory for Biden to the presidential elections. And that means Kamala Harris as the next president.”
And with this phrase he certainly interprets the terror of many, including Democrats, who see in a second Biden presidency the concrete danger that an intervention by Mother Nature could necessarily bring about Kamala Harris to the presidency, and then we would really have to cry. Polling expert Steve Shepard, who last week suggested not to take the outcome of the Iowa primaries too seriously, this time argues that having won the first two states gives Trump a lead over his predecessors, and now for for him the road is downhill.
