The Trump train speeds toward GOP nomination. Can Haley slow it down?

On today's episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s "Politically Georgia" podcast, Greg Bluestein makes his way home from New Hampshire. Bluestein discusses Donald Trump’s convincing win in New Hampshire. Bluestein describes Nikki Haley’s response to finishing a distant second. What will she do next? AJC Washington correspondent Tia Mitchell, AP politics reporter Meg Kinnard and political analyst Rick Dent join the discussion. Then, President Joe Biden’s write-in campaign carried him to first place in the Democratic contest that held little meaning since Biden chose not to compete in the nation’s traditional first primary in the nation. The panel discusses what’s at stake for Biden when South Carolina holds its Democratic primary. Plus, AJC staff writer Maya Prabhu joins the podcast to discuss top stories unfolding in the General Assembly, including a new effort to launch a formal investigation of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
