Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R) said on Sunday he thinks former President Trump wants to wrap up the nominating process quickly because he sees certain warning signs looming that could threaten his path to the candidacy.

In an interview with MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart, Hutchinson mentioned as potential threats the multiple court cases against him, the financial fines and fees he must pay, and the nearly 40 percent of South Carolina GOP voters who voted for Haley over Trump.

“I think what Donald Trump is trying to do is to wrap this nomination up very quickly because he knows the storm clouds are gathering over him with the multiple court cases, with the financial judgments against him, and with 40 percent of the Republican base saying we want an alternative,” Hutchinson said.

Hutchinson, who suspended his own campaign for president last month and endorsed Haley, pointed to the party convention as an opportunity to emerge with a different candidate.

Asked whether he would support Trump if Haley dropped out of the race, Hutchinson said, “Well, I’m not going to support a convicted felon.”

2. I believe the Supreme Court will come out this week on immunity....

I sense they are doing a big CYA debate amongst themselves....not wanting to look as partisan as they are known to be....

I think Amy Barrett will side with the Democratic Justices...that the people have a right to know BEFORE the election that tRump does NOT have immunity.

It will be out this week.....that is my sense.
