In Saturday’s South Carolina Republican primary, he pulled in just 59.8% of the vote. Nikki Haley got 39.5%.
If Joe Biden had gotten less than 60% of the vote in a Democratic primary, the mainstream media would declare his reelection campaign in dire straits.
Trump’s reelection campaign is in dire straits.
In 1992, Patrick Buchanan won 40% of the vote in the New Hampshire primary, holding George H.W. Bush to 58% — almost exactly what Haley did to Trump on Saturday. The New York Times treated the outcome as a huge problem for Bush, with the headline “BUSH JARRED IN FIRST PRIMARY” followed by a story characterizing the result as “a roar of anger” toward Bush from Republican primary voters.
South Carolina’s result was just as much a “roar of anger” from Republican primary voters toward Trump.
And South Carolina is about as deep red as it gets. In the New Hampshire primary, Trump got 54.3% of the vote; Haley, 43.2%. In Iowa, Trump got just 56,260 votes. There are 2,083,979 registered voters in Iowa. Hence, fewer than 3% of Iowans voted for him.
