"There's a clear chance that Trump might be the victor."

In spite of denying Trump a clean sweep of the primaries, Nikki Haley has dropped out of the Republican race after a lacklustre Super Tuesday showing leaving Donald Trump as the presumptive nominee to go up against Joe Biden in the November election. And in spite of a Supreme Court decision in Trump's favour this week, with ongoing legal battles and Trump facing a clear mental decline (along with Biden), the road ahead looks anything but smooth. Also discussing the latest from Gaza, reproductive rights, and the battle over pay and benefits for gig workers.
