New Hampshire, in addition to Iowa, has hosted several of Trump’s Republican competitors as of late.
Today’s event will mark the first time the former President will be speaking freely at his own campaign event concerning the recent indictments last week, according to The Eagle-Tribune:
Former President Donald Trump will be stopping in New Hampshire on the 2024 campaign trail this week, hoping to energize his supporters in the First in the Nation primary.
The Republican frontrunner, will be speaking at Windham High School on Tuesday, Aug. 8 at 2:30 p.m. The event is open to the public, with advance registration online at donaldjtrump.com. This is going to be the fourth visit the former President has made to New Hampshire this campaign season.
The speech in Windham will be one of the first public forums where Trump will be speaking after his most recent criminal indictment for allegedly attempting to overturn his loss to President Biden in 2020.
Trump’s visit to the Granite State comes just after Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida, his primary competition for the Republican nomination, visited the state, and also on the heels of a visit from his former Vice President, Mike Pence, who spoke in Londonderry on Friday, Aug. 4.
According to recent polling in the Granite State, Trump is still the dominant force with a lead of at least 20 points over his closest rival, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
A recent DailyMail.com poll of New Hampshire primary voters in July found Trump leading DeSantis by 27-points:
Trump’s impact in the state seems nearly insurmountable even as his support dips slightly since April. Since that time, while others like Chris Christie and Tim Scott have gained support, DeSantis actually lost ground losing 3 points.
As for the recent, pending, and possibly future indictments against Trump, his base isn’t shaking loose and one more incitement might just seal the nomination, according to Rich Lowry writing for The New York Times:
There may be Democrats who still believe they can somehow indict Mr. Trump out of presidential contention, but many Republicans who oppose him have dreaded the indictments as sure to bolster him, and so it has proved.
A figure like Mr. Trump, a colorful populist adored by a political base that loves him, in part, because he is so embattled, is unlikely to be taken down by the very authorities he says are corrupt and arrayed against him.
It may be that nearly six months from now, in the cold light of day before the Iowa caucuses, Republicans conclude the burden of his potential trials next year in terms of time, expense and political fallout makes him too risky a nominee. In the meantime, almost every Republican who wants to beat him is thinking, “Please, no more indictments.”
The rest of the field is hoping Trump indictment fatigue sets in before voting starts in January. But what if it doesn’t? None of the previous indictments have slowed Trump’s momentum toward the nomination, they’ve probably thrown jet fuel on the fire.
Tune in this afternoon for Trump’s speech and follow the Trump rally and event schedule to stay up to date on the campaign trail.
