Haley Campaign Press Release - VIDEO: Do Republicans Want a Toss-up or a Landslide?

CHARLESTON, S.C. — Fox News contributor Marc Thiessen posed an important question yesterday on Fox Business: "The question Republicans need to ask themselves is, do you want the election to be a toss-up or do you want it to be a landslide?" He went on to explain that Donald Trump barely ekes out a victory over Joe Biden — one of the most unpopular presidents in history. In contrast, Nikki Haley demolishes Joe Biden.

Poll after poll show Haley trouncing Joe Biden in the general election, while Trump barely wins, and DeSantis often doesn't win at all.

• Echelon Insights, 12/23/23: Haley +4, Trump -1, DeSantis -1
• Wall Street Journal, 12/09/23: Haley +17, Trump +4, DeSantis +0
• Harris, 12/5/23: Haley +10, Trump +6, DeSantis +2
• Marquette, 11/15/23: Haley +12, Trump +2, DeSantis +2 (likely voters)
• Fox News, 11/15/23: Haley +11, Trump +4, DeSantis +5
• New York Times/Siena College, battleground states, 11/6/23: Haley +9, Trump +3, DeSantis +3 (likely voters)

"What Lee said is absolutely correct. He's probably the weakest incumbent we've had in our modern history. And yet, if you look at the Real Clear Politics average, Donald Trump is tied with him, with the weakest incumbent we've ever had. By contrast, if you look at Nikki Haley, she crushes him, Biden, in almost every poll, she crushes him in the New York Times/Siena poll, in most of the swing states, Trump loses Wisconsin by two points, she wins it by 17, or 13 rather. So I mean, the question Republicans need to ask themselves is, do you want the election to be a toss-up or do you want it to be a landslide? Because that's the question they're facing."
