“So, that was big news. Late today, the former governor of New Jersey dropped out of the race in New Hampshire. You saw it there,” Martha MacCallum said.

“There’s a lot of speculation now that there could be a combining of forces, of the people who supported him, about 12 percent there, and by some estimates, you’re ahead by an average of 14 in the Real Clear Politics average polling.”

“In New Hampshire,” Bret Baier said.

“In New Hampshire. So, if that 12 goes to Nikki Haley, she could give you a run for your money there,” MacCallum said.

“Well, you know, you have Democrats in New Hampshire, and they vote, and you have independents in New Hampshire in large numbers and they vote,” Trump said.

“And I have polls that show me leading by tremendous amount in New Hampshire and a lot in Iowa. And nationwide, we’re leading by almost 60 points.”

“So, I’m not exactly worried about it.”

“I understand New Hampshire very well. I won it twice and did very well with New Hampshire. I love the people, they love me, I think. We did a good job for New Hampshire economically and even from the standpoint of the military taking care of the vets.”

“And I think we’re going to do very well in New Hampshire. Now, you know, Chris Christie was in and he got a hot mic I heard about. I thought actually the biggest story wasn’t the fact that he dropped out.”

“Nobody cared too much about that, but he had a hot mic where he was talking to somebody about the weather. And he happened to say that she doesn’t have what it takes. She’ll be creamed in the — in the election.”

“And — I mean, I know her very well and I happen to believe that Chris Christie is right. That’s one of the few things he’s been right about actually.”
