Former President Donald Trump is gaining support as he seeks the Republican presidential nomination for 2024.
Conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt believes that if more than one contender challenges Trump in the South Carolina and Florida primaries, it would effectively secure Trump as the nominee.

Additionally, various states are facing significant Senate reelection battles, with Arizona, Michigan, and Montana among them.
“It is endorsement season. In fact, we had one on this show last night. Bob Vander Plaats in Iowa… Hugh, you speak with the American people every day. Do these endorsements move the needle?” Mike Emanuel said.
“Yes, they do in Iowa,” he added.
“Bob Vander Plaats is probably the most influential non-elected political activist in the United States. Every time that there is a Republican primary there, combined with the governor there, that’s a big one-two punch for Governor DeSantis.”
“But the reality is, if there is more than one contender among Governors DeSantis and Christie and Ambassador Haley come South Carolina or Florida, then former President Trump has effectively won,” he said.
“They can’t go into Florida with more than one candidate and Mr. Ramaswamy doesn’t really matter in this calculation. If the field doesn’t consolidate, I don’t see how Donald Trump isn’t the nominee.”
The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee is focused on defending incumbents and expanding the battleground map to Texas and Florida.
“Democrats have multiple pathways to protect and strengthen our Senate majority and are in a strong position to achieve this goal,” David Bergstein, Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) communications director said.
“In addition to defending our battle-tested incumbents, we’ve already expanded the battleground map to Texas and Florida, where formidable Democratic candidates are outraising unpopular Republican incumbents, and the DSCC is making investments to lay the groundwork for our campaigns’ victories,” he added.
Ohio’s Senator Sherrod Brown is seeking reelection in 2024 in a solidly Republican state.
