"Analyzing Trump's Impact on Early Republican Primary Elections"

Despite Donald Trump's strong support in the Republican primaries, there are signs that he may struggle to broaden his appeal for the general election. His base consists mainly of white, older, and non-college-educated voters, which may not reflect the electorate he needs to win over in November. Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley's limited traction in the primaries may foreshadow challenges for Trump, and the Republican Party's shift towards big government programs and less intervention abroad reflects Trump's influence. While Trump's base remains loyal, he faces potential weaknesses with moderates, liberals, and suburban voters, as well as opposition from a significant portion of Republican voters who won't back him in the general election.
