nikki haley is there, it is just a one—on—one contest.moved south, so here is the test. if we do not do well in terms of nikki haley doing well against donald trump, than it looks like it is going to be an early finish to this nomination contest. i want to ask about a hypothetical here, it doesn't look likely that donald trump will be the eventual republican nominee unless something changes. if you were to be convicted in one of the four criminal cases he is currently facing, in your mind, which of the republican party do? first of all, they should not support a convicted felon for president of the united states. i am one of the few candidates who has said i will not support that candidate if he is convicted of a serious felony and if these are serious felonies. the republican party needs to be aware that donald trump's strategy is to wrap this nomination up quickly before the storm clouds gather, before the convention, and then, if he is convicted, the republican party has an even tougher decision to make, do you stick with him or abando

for 12 years, the trio lived with nikki's grandmother, but nikki dreamed of giving her daughters a better life. nikki worked hard and eventually the three moved about 20 miles away to conyers, georgia. the young mother wanted her girls to have advantages that eluded her. putting them in dance and music classes. nothing but the best for her baby girls. >> she did their hair, their makeup, and for nikki, when it came to her kids, it was always a celebration. >> the girls were also straight-a students with hopes of one day going to harvard, but their path to success was dramatically diverted when the girls hit high school. >> it was difficult for them to start hearing and accepting the word noÉ. >> teenage taz and jaz bitterly resented their mother's discipline. the rage boiled over when nikki took away taz cell phone, when she let it be known that you're 14, you can't talk to 17 year old guys, and you can't be on the phone at a certain time and you can't stay out or whatnot. >> that's when i think it became a battle, and it was clear nikki was losing control of her beautiful princesses. >>

he beat nikki haley by 50 points.hat's a reminder, it's hard to win a republican nominating contest if you are losing republicans by 50 points. as we look ahead -- jeff and kate alluded to this -- the calendar. the calendar here is something. we are done now with new hampshire. that was right here. you have all these days left in january. you have all this time before south carolina. nevada notwithstanding and the virgin islands, a favorite of kate bolduan's and mine. this is a ton of real estate. this is a ton of time to weather attacks if you are nikki haley. a lot of things can happen during that time. a lot of them, they're not great. one other thing i want to point out that's of concern to some trump supporters is this number right here. i put it side by side with this. yes, he won. but in our exit poll, we asked, if trump is the nominee, would you be dissatisfied but not support? would you not support him if he was the nominee? look at this. republicans, 19% of republican voters said they would not support donal

nikki haley is 80%. that's good enough for me. and i'm just ready to move forward and move on from the name calling. it's like we are hearing such similar things, but then just flip it in reverse who answers that. >> with the opposite conclusions. >> one thing we have also been hearing, both of them accusing the other of being the political establishment or having the backing and endorsement of the political elite. that was a strong message last night. we also heard her reenforce that this morning when she stopped by a the polling place in hampton. listen to this. >> i think it's not the party uniting around president trump. it's the political elite that are uniting around president trump. and the political elite have never been with me my entire career because i have always fought the political elite. it's why i want them to have term limits. it's why i think i call them out on wasteful spending whether it's a republican or democrat. it you can't give americans a budget on time, you shouldn't get paid. i fight the political class

we are iowa" nikki: good evening. welcome to local 5 news, i'm nikki davidson. tonight, some good news from the iowa state patrol. the number of deadly crashes dropped again in 20-15. they're down, nearly twenty percent since 20-10, and the lowest since world war two. nikki: local five's jacob peklo joins us now with more in tonight's big story. jacob? jacob if it wasn't for a deadly crash on new year's eve, the state of iowa would have had its lowest fatality total since 19-44. just a decade ago, there were 450 deadly crashes. in 20-15, it was 3- 17. patrollers say a number of factors have patrollers say a number of factors have brought the numbers down, but they say there are still several things drivers can do to improve. natural sound of car shifting into gear the first weekend of the year for iowa state trooper michael clyde has been a busy one. natural sound of light radar now, that the holidays roadways for trooper michael clyde, iowa state patrol: "when people see cops they tend to slow down a lot more. so, speed is one of the biggest factors in crashes.

nikki will do that. thing people need to know donald trump can only give you four years that's like a football team can only play half of the game. it's going to take eight years to get this country straight nikki's youth and the fact she can give eight years i would also make the argument it's released three years because the last are of a term is political. like you are seeing now. president trump is going to be tied up in legal fights. weaning semi that can come in and work. the criticism that he has of heard the only reason he is doing that is because she is gaining in the polls. and he knows she is a serious threat this is a two-person race now. shannon: let's talk about why the critique said collector president you hyped eight years potentially a bore here's what he said the other night about her foreign policy. >> nikki haley is backed by the deep state of the military-industrial complex. she has never seen a war she doesn't like. shannon: he called her a globalist what is your response question.

for nikki haley. but as you said, this is something that she's been wanting. she's been saying since coming out third in iowa that she wanted a two person race and how she has it. the big question is, is she able to actually build on this and form a coalition of supporters? um, you know, obviously what we saw in iowa 56,000 people in the state voted for trump. um that's not that many. and that's what some of nikki haley supporters are trying to say, like chris sununu of new hampshire. they're saying, look, a huge percentage of the republican electorate does not like former president donald trump. and so we got to give her a chance. but we are also are seeing a lot of pressure from trump's surrogates. folks on capitol hill. we're seeing steve daines of the nrsc saying, let's coalesce around former president donald trump. so a lot of pressure behind the scenes, for sure. yeah, a lot of pressure. and it is really a much, really really a much, rey exciting race. see what happens. samantha jo, stay with us. we'll have a lot more. as we have been reporting a sunday

so it's very hard to predict, especially today what nikki is going to do. if she's a good republican, then that would be a smart idea and probably showing up back in a cabinet position, maybe. but i don't think at this stage, the rip is there too, too much, and i, if she was any hope of being and twice way she is gonna have to play nice. but the same time she's got a lot of mega donors that would be very upset with her for caving in in find to the pressure like so many others that stephanie who's thank you so much host of the 360 . it was a pleasure to have you on the show. thank you. thank you for having me or your printer, missile strike on sunday needs destruction. it's past the attack, claimed the lives of at least 27 civilians. and when did many more r t for respondents div sweeney reports from the c. on sunday, this marketplace was busy with the local was doing that daily shopping. it was a bright, sunny day, much like today. around 10 am. the hustle and bustle gave way to cairo's, as you cried, new miss all strike killed. 27 people for them died here

we will wait to see nikki - her. we will wait to see nikki haley turn up there later to deliver a speech before the focus moves to new hampshire where she is polling very well. i am joined by pollster supremo frank. looking at the result we only have a small proportion of precincts reported but it does look like a runaway victory at donald trump that all of the poles before now had predicted. it is more than that 50% of the boat is what he said he would do the argument he used to push the other candidates out, that he was getting more votes than all of them combined, looks like it may be the case and if that holds, that is a significant, a meaningful measurable victory for the former president. the fact nikki haley is fighting with ron desantis for second place did even, means ron desantis can continue and nikki haley can continue and nikki haley can say she came up, it is not the second finish place she wanted and it is enough for ron desantis to continue.- desantis to continue. looking at the map — desantis to cont
