Trump's surfing a wave of a political revolution… Haley's been capsized... and Biden's set to be crushed… but, reveals SCOTT JENNINGS, that's not even the most damning takeaway for the Dems on their truly Tragic Tuesday

Former President Donald Trump basks in primary victory in Mar-a-Lago.

Nikki Haley thinks Republican voters still care what she has to say.

And President Joe Biden launches into the general election by not doing much of anything at all – after becoming the first incumbent president to lose a primary since Jimmy Carter in 1980.

The general election is on, folks. It's going to be a wild ride. And Super Tuesday's results are revealing how this will all likely play out.

IT'S TRUMP PARTY NOW

Trump dominated the political landscape on Tuesday, winning everywhere except Vermont (pro-tip for The Green Mountain State's delegates to the RNC: bring sturdy walking shoes and binoculars – because you're going to sitting in the nosebleed seats in Milwaukee).

'Success will bring unity to our country,' Trump announced from his Florida home base Tuesday night.

At least, he's united the GOP.

The 45th president carried 14 of 15 contests, hoovering up a total of 995 delegates since the Iowa caucuses and setting himself on a glide path to cross the delegate threshold as early as next week to clinch the Republican nomination.

Without a doubt, Tuesday night's performance cemented his position - but that's not to say they weren't flashing red warning signs for the frontrunner.

The principal weakness for Trump continues to appear in counties with high concentrations of college-educated voters. In college towns and urban areas across the Super Tuesday states, GOP voters went for Haley.

'Success will bring unity to our country,' Trump announced from his Florida home base Tuesday night. At least, he's united the GOP.

A third of Republican primary voters in Virginia, a quarter in North Carolina, and 4 in 10 in Massachusetts aren't on board with Trump. And there's evidence they never will be.

Regardless, Haley had no path to primary victory after Tuesday night – and on Wednesday morning, the former South Carolina governor and United Nations ambassador delivered her concession speech from her home state (where she got trounced by Trump last month).

Haley, however, did not back Trump in her remarks.

My response… does it really matter?

After, Trump called her a 'birdbrain' and Haley said The Donald was 'not qualified to be president,' was anyone going to be moved by an endorsement anyway?

THE 'HALEY HOLDOUT' MYTH

A lot of breath is being wasted on what Trump plans to do to 'win back' Haley voters come November.

But polling and exit poll surveys taken in the primary voting locations tell us that a great many of these voters are Democrats, left-leaning independents and 'Never Trump' Republicans who voted for Biden in 2020.

In the Commonwealth of Virginia, 10 percent of the GOP electorate self-identified as Democrats.

Surprise, surprise… they voted overwhelmingly for Haley.

One exit poll in Virginia said Haley's voters gave Biden a nearly 50 percent job approval rating!

There aren't Republicans. These aren't 2020 Trump voters, who switched to Haley in 2024. 

These are voters simply looking for any candidate other than Trump and have been for quite some time. Haley is the current vessel for that group.

Trump won't win most of them back and he may not need to…

THE NEW MULTI-RACIAL GOP

The American political landscape is changing fast – and it's playing into Trump's hands.

The GOP is morphing into a working-class party, as college-educated suburban voters flee to the Democrats and non-college educated Americans hop on the culturally conservative Trump train.

In a New York Times/Siena poll, Trump won with Hispanic voters and pulled in nearly a quarter of African American voters. This new Republican coalition is multi-racial.

Panic ought to be setting in over at Democrat Party headquarters.

For years, the Democrats claimed the moral high ground on fighting for the middle class, for everyday workers, and for the 'common man,' who was being crushed by special interests and evil corporations.

But Democrats are losing this working-class backbone of America by the bushel, and this dynamic changes the framework that the political punditry have used for decades to analyze these elections.

One exit poll in Virginia said Haley's voters gave Biden a nearly 50 percent job approval rating! There aren't Republicans.

Working-class Americans aren't woke. They aren't particularly progressive. And they don't want to be told they will be 'taken care of' if they just shut up and accept some progressive cultural hellscape narrated in a language they don't even recognize.

They also widely believe that Biden caused the inflation crisis that has had them living in anxiety and misery for three years.

If that doesn't have Biden aides popping Prozacs in the White House, perhaps this will…

WHO WON THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY IN AMERICAN SAMOA?

Entrepreneur Jason Palmer defeated President Joe Biden to win American Samoa's Democratic primary.

I've never heard of him, either. The race was of no consequence. But as a symbol, it's telling.

President Joe Biden now joins Jimmy Carter as the only incumbent president in modern memory to lose a primary race. It's bad company. (Sorry, Jimmy.)

The Democratic Party has stunningly not come to grips with the reality that Biden will not be cashiered at the Democratic National Convention.

To paraphrase Hillary Clinton: Yes, Joe's ancient, but he's all the Democrats have. Rah, rah!

More than that, Biden's job approval ratings are historically low and his party remains severely unenthused with his candidacy.

Most damning of all, polls show that most Americans think his policies have hurt and not helped them, personally.

Even in California on Tuesday night, an overwhelmingly liberal state, voters are lukewarm at best on Biden's performance.

His job approval was roughly 50-50, a low score in a bedrock Democratic stronghold. And the top issues in this predominantly left-wing electorate were cost of living (36 percent), immigration (17 percent), and crime (15 percent).

Down the list? Climate change, the state of America's democracy and abortion.

Democrats think they'll run on these issues in November. It's a problem that their voters have other concerns.

It's undeniable that the so-called 'Super Tuesday' was more of a 'Super Snooze-day.'

The results were largely expected — Trump romped over Haley, Biden faced small pockets of dissatisfaction ahead of Thursday night's State of the Union speech, and new evidence of a rapidly changing GOP were revealed, as the two parties barrel toward a rematch.

But these themes will dominate the general election.

Right now, Trump appears to be riding a rising tide of political revolution and Biden is at risk of being crushed by the cresting wave.
