Hi Governor. | |

Nice to meet you. | |

I'm Laura Loomer. | |
| I'm a conservative journalist. | ||
| And I was just wondering, you know, you're polling right now, 1% in the GOP presidential primary polls. | ||
| So what's stopping you right now from just dropping out of the race and endorsing President Trump? | ||
| Because clearly there's no path to victory. | ||
| Well, I disagree with that. | ||
| And I think competition is great for the Republican Party and it's great for America. | ||
|

You think there's a path to victory with 1% polling nationally in GOP primary polls? | |
| I think that's up to the voters in Iowa, New Hampshire, and where we're polling at higher rates than that. | ||
|

|
That's what they decided. | |
| You're at 1%. | ||
| So why increase division in this country instead of just endorsing the leader of the Republican Party, President Trump? | ||
| I don't think I'm increasing division when I'm running against Joe Biden. | ||
| Joe Biden is 100% 80 degrees wrong on economy. | ||
|

|
Yeah, but people need to start uniting their resources and their time behind a candidate that can win if we're really going to defeat Joe Biden. | |
| You're at 1% nationally. | ||
| So I'm just saying, is there anything stopping you from endorsing President Trump? | ||
| Do you see yourself, like when you do drop out, because that's inevitable, will you be endorsing President Trump and supporting him as the nominee? | ||
| I will absolutely be supporting Republican over Joe Biden, but we don't have a national primary system. | ||
| We have a state primary system that Theodore Roosevelt created to put power in the hands of the people. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But will you be supporting Trump, though? | |
| I'll be supporting the Republican nominee. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's going to be Trump. | |
| It's going to be Trump. | ||
| Are you going to support Trump? | ||
| He's answering your question. | ||
| We're going to go on. | ||
| Basically, the voters get to decide. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The voters want Trump. |
