According to former Republican National Committee official Douglas Heye, Donald Trump could quickly wrap up the 2024 GOP presidential, nomination if he wins scores a decisive victory at the Iowa caucus in just over six months.
Noting ttiming, Heye made the prediction to the CNN "State of the Union" panel that he can't see any chance that Trump could be derailed if we walks away with an early victory.
Addressing host Jake Tapper, he first explained that Ithe caucus usually "culls the field" down to fewer candidates.

"If Donald Trump wins Iowa this time, the field is over," he stated. "So all things are going to come down to Iowa in this case. If Ron DeSantis wins, if Mike Pence is able to 99-county his way in a victory then we have a wide-open race.
"But if Donald Trump wins Iowa in January --and it is six months and one week to go so there is a long time - this race, I think is effectively over," he added.
