MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Despite resounding victories on Super Tuesday, there are indications that Donald Trump is still struggling to get strong, united Republican support, which he may need in the presidential election.
Trump is all but certain to clinch the GOP's 2024 presidential nomination, setting up a rematch with President Joe Biden in November, after dominating the busiest day of the primary calendar with easy victories in more than a dozen states on March 5.
Trump has been the overwhelming favorite to win the 2024 GOP nomination throughout the primary season—with Super Tuesday's results further cementing this.
However, the former president is still losing a significant number of votes to a more moderate Republican candidate, and there is no guarantee voters will support him in the general election, which could be a warning sign for the 77-year-old.
Olivia Perez-Cubas, a campaign spokesperson for Haley, said in a statement that the results across the country Tuesday shows there is a "large block" of Republican primary voters who are "expressing deep concerns" about the potential of Trump returning to the White House.
In a speech at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, Trump said his clear lead in the GOP primary turned what is usually the most eagerly anticipated day of the presidential nomination season into a foregone conclusion.
