Breaking News! After a dismal showing in Iowa, Asa Hutchinson has officially suspended his campaign for President. Obviously, this is shocking news that is breaking millions of hearts across America so we will do our best to tread lightly for this story. Just kidding!
Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson is ending his 2024 race for president after a dismal sixth-place showing in the Iowa caucuses underscored how little he had been embraced by Republican voters.
With 99% of the expected results in, Hutchinson secured just 191 votes in the Iowa caucuses and zero pledged delegates as of Tuesday morning, appearing to underperform his .07% polling average in the Hawkeye State and trailing little-known pastor Ryan Binkley, who has no national profile to speak of.
"My message of being a principled Republican with experience and telling the truth about the current front runner did not sell in Iowa," Hutchinson said in a statement, referring to Donald Trump. "I stand by the campaign I ran. I answered every question, sounded the warning to the GOP about the risks in 2024 and presented hope for our country’s future."
Many on Twitter seemed shocked Asa was even in the race.
Pretty sure you are not the only one.
Other than literally everyone? Snicker.
Yes. An old white guy is just a bridge too far for America.
It is anybody's race now. Heh.
To be fair, some tweeps had kind words for Asa's send off. Christie and Asa were the most 'anti-Trump' guys in the race by a long mile. It will be interesting to see if DeSantis and Haley step up their attacks on Trump now that he is the clear and undisputed leader and one of them needs to break away and shake the other off to have any chance.
