When Trump left the White House three years ago, he was a pariah — a one-term president whose refusal to accept his reelection defeat culminated in an insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. But he is now on the cusp of a stunning turnaround, poised to recapture his party’s nomination in record speed despite four criminal cases totaling 91 felony charges, as well as a civil fraud trial that threatens to strip him of control of much of his business empire.

Overview

  • Donald Trump secures significant victories in the Nevada and Virgin Islands Republican caucuses, highlighting his dominance in the GOP race against Nikki Haley.
  • Nikki Haley's campaign faces challenges after losing to a 'none of these candidates' option in Nevada's primary and opting out of the caucus, focusing on South Carolina.
  • President Joe Biden wins the Nevada Democratic primary, but attention shifts to a report criticizing his handling of classified documents.
  • Trump's early-state wins and substantial lead in polls raise doubts about Haley's path to the Republican nomination.
  • The likelihood of a Trump-Biden rematch in the 2024 presidential election increases, amid ongoing legal and health concerns for both candidates.
