Trump gives victory speech after easily winning South Carolina primary: Watch live

Former President Trump delivered remarks following the projection that he won the South Carolina GOP primary Saturday, dealing a crushing blow to rival Nikki Haley.

The Palmetto State becomes the third state in a row in which Trump has trounced Haley on the ballot. The two did not compete together in Nevada, which held a dueling primary and caucus.

Trump’s win was largely expected, given that an average of South Carolina surveys compiled by The Hill/Decision Desk HQ found the former president leading Haley 64 percent to 33 percent.
