Talking Politics’ Larry Schweikart reports that Donald J. Trump has broken the 55-percent mark in the most recent GOP Presidential primary polls. Meanwhile, fellow candidate Ron DeSantis has cratered to less than 20 percent.
Scweikart, author of Reagan: The American President, said this spells bad news for DeSantis. “Once you hit 55 percent, it’s really insurmountable,” he says. Adding insult to injury for DeSantis, if Trump’s indictment is not dismissed by a judge, the trial will more than likely take place after the 2024 election. Schweikart breaks out the details, plus brings more political intel.

Schweikart dissects the historical significance of this issue in this edition of Prager University.
