Trump says ‘all I want’ is for election against Biden to be held TUESDAY after easy Nevada win and a ‘very beautiful day’ at the Supreme Court while blockbuster DOJ report imperils president’s reelection run

Former President Donald Trump said “all I want” is for the general election to happen Tuesday after an easy victory in the Nevada caucus, a good day at the Supreme Court and a bad day for President Joe Biden.

Trump appeared on stage at the Treasure Island Hotel and Casino and gloated over his resounding double victory in Nevada — with Thursday’s caucuses elevating the ex-president with less than 1 percent of the vote, and Tuesday’s primary result — then Trump was not on the list. vote – embarrassing rival Nikki Haley.

He also hinted that he believed the Supreme Court would rule in his favor, keeping him on the ballot nationwide, after in oral arguments earlier Thursday even the liberal justices seemed skeptical of wanting to dismiss him.

“Is there any way we can call the election for next Tuesday? That’s all I want,” Trump told the crowd. “I want to call the elections for next Tuesday.”

Trump surprisingly did not address President Joe Biden’s chaotic day — with special counsel Robert Hur’s classified documents report highlighting the 81-year-old president’s “diminished capabilities,” referring to him as a well-meaning, older man with a bad memory.’

When Biden addressed the report at a surprise press conference on Thursday evening, he made another blunder: He said the president of Egypt was from “Mexico.”

Trump also made a small mistake when speaking to supporters about Tuesday night’s Nevada primaries, accidentally placing the action on Wednesday.

“And last night, and you know what happened last night, none of the above,” he said, laughing.

Without Trump’s name on the ballot, his supporters selected “none of these candidates,” with that option winning over Haley, who was not actively campaigning in the state and protested the Trump-allied Republican Party’s decision in Nevada to move on go with a caucus. the state legislature voted that primaries should be held.

“I don’t want to congratulate any of the above. “I was one of those who were never above us,” Trump said, laughing. “And they won by 44 points.”

The 2024 Republican front-runner then turned to Thursday’s oral arguments before the Supreme Court.

“The Supreme Court will hopefully do something to help our country and preserve democracy. We must preserve democracy,” Trump said.

He appointed three of the current nine judges to the conservative-oriented court.

‘I think they had a very interesting day and perhaps a very beautiful day. I think it was a very beautiful sight to watch,” the ex-president added.

As Trump prepared to deliver his victory speech, his Nevada surrogates and allies descended on a ballroom on Treasure Island.

Surrogate North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, a former 2024 rival who now supports Trump, told DailyMail.com that he believed the Justice Department report on Biden could change the trajectory of the presidential race.

“I think it will change the situation even more for the Democrats because they will have to decide. I mean, they’ve basically built an entire campaign around, “We’re going to stick with the horse we have in the race and prevent everyone else from getting into this.” But I think they see their fortunes starting to fail,” Burgum said. “They’ll be scrambling to see what they can do.”

“But it’s a hard sell to the American people because the American people got to see – I mean, think of Biden’s press conference today as a milestone in this campaign where people could talk about this as a turning point for the Biden campaign ,” the North Dakota governor added.

Just hours before the results in Nevada, Trump also achieved a victory in the caucuses in the US Virgin Islands.

He won 73.9 percent of the vote, compared to Haley’s 26 percent — and is expected to take all the islands’ available delegates.

‘Great news!’ Trump wrote on Truth Social on Thursday. “As we land in Nevada and get ready to head to the Caucus, word just came out that we overwhelmingly won the Virgin Islands Caucus, ALL delegates, with almost 75% of the vote.”

“This was a very big day for your favorite president, the Republican Party and democracy!” he noted, likely referring not only to his victory but also to the DOJ report and the SCOTUS arguments.

Vegas-based Trump Senior Advisor Kash Patel told DailyMail.com on Wednesday that winning Nevada is the “key to the West” as he drew parallels between the demographics and priorities of voters in the Silver State and in Arizona – a must win in 2024.

Nevada turned blue in 2016 and 2020, but Arizona was a red state that turned blue in 2020, which Trump and Biden see as a priority to capture the White House in 2024.

Although Tuesday’s primaries were only symbolic after the Nevada Republican Party decided that all delegates would be awarded in Thursday’s caucuses, Trump was still the biggest winner that night.

Haley finished in second place in the primary behind the “none of these candidates” option, which offered voters the chance to vote for no one — an effort led by Trump Senior Advisor Kash Patel.

Haley’s stunning defeat proves that Trump supporters are so enthusiastic and mobilized that they were willing to make two symbolic appearances and then actually cast their votes for the former president.

“Line up at the South Reno Caucus to vote for President Trump,” former Nevada Attorney General Adam Laxalt wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter, along with a video of a huge line of people waiting to gain entry to get to the caucus site.

“There is snow on the ground, it is a cold night and people have had to walk for miles to wait in line for an hour or more,” he noted. “Trump is the only person they can vote for, but they want to make their voices heard. Great sign!’

Trump only took part in the caucuses after the Republican Party said all candidates who had registered for the primaries were excluded from the election two days later.
