BREAKING: RNC Considers Declaring Trump Presumptive GOP Nominee After Decisive Victories

The Republican National Committee (RNC) is looking to end the GOP presidential primary via a resolution that would declare leading Republican presidential candidate and 45th President Donald Trump as the party's presumptive nominee for 2024. The draft resolution, co-sponsored by RNC committeeman Tyler Bowyer, comes after Trump's blowout victory against his competitors in the Iowa caucus and the New Hampshire primary earlier this month.

The resolution explains that Donald Trump dominated the other candidates who "aggressively competed for many months in the Iowa Caucus covering all corners of the state, and strongly and clearly conveying their visions for America to Iowa's caucus-goers." The resolution added that despite the competition's best efforts, Trump dominated with 51 percent of the vote in Iowa while beating out former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley by 11 percentage points in New Hampshire earlier this week.

Given these decisive victories, the resolution states that "all evidence negates the possibility of a mathematical path forward to the 2024 Republican nomination by any candidate other than President Trump, our presumptive nominee." The resolution then argues that the more money that is spent on the primary, over $300 million so far, will only make it more difficult to take on President Biden in the general election. "Any money spent from this moment forward in the primary process is better spent fighting the democrats by focusing on President Biden's deadly border crisis, failed economic policies, and disastrous and dangerous foreign policy."

The draft resolution then concludes that the RNC declares President Trump to be the de-facto nominee of the party, irrespective of former Gov. Haley remaining in the race. "Resolved that the Republican National Committee hereby declares President Trump as our presumptive 2024 nominee for the office of President of the United States and, from this moment forward, moves into full general election mode, welcoming supporters of all candidates as valued members of Team Trump 2024," the resolution concludes.

According to the Five Thirty Eight national polling average for the Republican primary, Trump has the support of 68.3 percent of the GOP electorate while Haley only has 12.9 percent support. President Trump has shown that Republican voters want him to remain as the party's leader going into the November election. While Haley may attempt to stay in the race through her home state of South Carolina, Trump, in the eyes of most GOP voters, is the party's presumptive nominee. The passing of the RNC draft resolution would only formalise what most Republicans already know to be true.
