I’m starting to think Trump said something personally to Haley that seriously pissed her off, because she must know she’s not going to win.
He recently came out and said she would NEVER be his VP. After that she figured why tip toe around the orange elephant.
I assume she’s hoping to get the Republican nomination by default if Trump is disqualified.
This would be my dream (as a non-American).
I want to see if the deep red Republicans hate Democrats enough to vote for a woman, born to Indian immigrant parents just out of spite.
They won’t, thats my bet.
Let’s be real, all of MAGA is gonna sit this one out crying about fraud if Trump isn’t on the ballet.
Is she playing white really hard right now. It is kind of weird honestly.
and she’s said something to him that really pissed him off: “No.”
At this point she can only win. Winning the nomination and the election this year is a long shot, that’s certainly true. But whether Trump wins the election by whatever means and inevitably drops dead at some point or he wins the nomination but loses the election, she’s in place as his obvious successor.
It is extremely unlikely that Haley can pull a comeback and win the nomination the conventional way. But there is a non-zero chance that Trump will not be able to accept the nomination, because he may be ineligible/incarcerated/deceased. If that happens, the Republican convention will be a shitshow. (It might turn out to be the real Civil War II if next week is a dud). However, Haley would be going in with a position of strength as the only other candidate with delegates.
There is nothing stopping incarcerated people from running for president, it has been done before. That probably helps to make it less enticing for corrupt politicians and their allies to lock up their opponents on false charges. Unless Trump dies within the next ten months or loses the support of his fanatic base, which both seem unlikely, Trump will be the Republican nominee. Haley might try for VP or try to carry her momentum into 2028.
Might be early preparation for a 2028 run. She’ll be a familiar face who was “strong enough to go toe to toe with Trump” or something. I dunno much about political calculus.
Plus yeah, this might also be payback to get him tilted.
If Trump wins there won’t be a 2028, homie.
Very true. Let’s do our best to ensure that doesn’t happen.
A lot of people don’t understand this. 2024 will very well be the last real election before we turn into russia-style sham elections which always result in putin getting elected.
That’s what everybody said about 2020, yet we had an election, Biden was in power, then Biden started enabling and supporting genocide.
Seems like we might have made the wrong choice.
I would rather have an inept evil moron than the competent evil wolf in sheep’s clothing that we got
Bruh, just stop. Nobody is fooled.
What exactly am I trying to fool people with?
How extremely anti-Biden I am?
What I think of the Buffoon Cheeto in chief?
I think it is pretty fucking clear where I stand.
I think it is pretty fucking clear where I stand.
With transphobes and homophobes, apparently
Yes, because I say fuck supporting genocide I must hate transgender and homosexual people.
Did it hurt trying to stretch that much?
because she must know she’s not going to win.
Winning isn’t important. It’s the free money. Colbert showed years ago how PAC money could be transformed into a personal slush fund.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
His petulance offers a reminder of the unhinged behaviour that turned off independent voters in New Hampshire and could prove to be a liability in a head-to-head contest with Biden.
Newt Gingrich, a former House of Representatives speaker and ex-presidential candidate, said: “Trump’s best strategy is to assume he is the nominee and go straight at Biden and ignore Haley, let her flounder around until she either runs out of money or realises that there is no future.
She tweeted on Thursday: “Underestimate me, that’s always fun.” Next week she is scheduled for a fundraising tour that includes stops in New York, Florida, California, Texas and South Carolina.
She is expected to continue to draw donor support as Never Trumpers within the party make a last stand and hope he could yet be derailed by the 91 criminal charges against him.
Larry Sabato, director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia, said: “I do know some of her donors and my guess is they want her staying in to put Trump through his paces.
This week he held a joint event with his vice-president, Kamala Harris, in Virginia to promote reproductive freedom, highlighting Trump’s role in the supreme court’s Dobbs decision that overturned the constitutional right to abortion.
The original article contains 1,279 words, the summary contains 211 words. Saved 84%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
I’m hoping that some Dem billionaires are funding her, just to annoy the shit outta Donnie Dipshit.
That is sort of happening minus the Dem part. She’s got the Koch money machine behind her. Which is disgusting and should make clear she’s controllable.
I would laugh out loud to see her goad Donnie into a heart attack live on stage.
But I wouldn’t vote for her in a million years.
I would vote for her in a second if the choice were between her and Donnie.
Well yes of course.
I get the feeling she might be playing up to the base but would dial that shit right back in office.
People said the same about trump. When someone shows you who they are, believe them.
The first time.

My partner and I were just talking about going to vote for her if she makes to it our states primaries.
My state has open primaries so I can vote in either parties primary. I’d never actually support either of them but tactically, it might be smarter for me to go support Haley (vote against Trump). My state went for Trump by almost 15 points in 2020, Biden isn’t going to win here. But if Haley can get to the general, I’m 90% sure Trump runs as an independent and splits the GOP vote.
has he tried grabbing her by the pussy?
Yeah. It grabbed him back.
Lets get it right, it’s Russia vs Koch Industries not Hailey vs Trump.
You’ve swapped the order though. Apart from that you are right.
Why would she drop out, she’s the leading eligible candidate.
His Achilles heel is people actually opposing him.
Especially when they dare to be women.
Yes, like all the other narcissists, people (in particular women) not doing what he wants really upsets him. This is nothing new.
Not just women, but since she’s of Indian descent, I’m sure he thinks of her as “a woman of color”. I’m sure she gets under his skin almost as much as other “disrespectful, uppity, don’t know their place” women like Fani Willis and Letitia James, and I’m here for it!
He wanted her to drop put and we all know he hates when women tell him ‘no.’
Let them fight; even if she gets the nomination, the GOP isn’t voting for a woman.
Given the polling she’s not going to win the primary… unless something unprecedented happens. Something that’s never happened in a primary before, like for example, the front-runner gets convicted of a crime during the campaign.
Which I suspect is the reason she’s staying in.
And then Biden calls him a “loser”. Definitely not wrong, and a good way to make Trump blow a gasket.
When was that? Did he all caps rage tweet in response?
Trump’s long list of Achilles heel’s include rain, wind, 3degree ramps, bottled water and vocabulary.
Bone spurs?
Trump got more heels than a caterpillar.
Trump is himself a heel
He wants her out so he can start fund raising as the de facto nominee. The other reason he wants her out is that it shows his weakness… even if she loses every race it shows that 30-40% of republican primary voters don’t want him. She should stay in at least until Super Tuesday just to piss him off.
She should stay in until the general election. There is a non zero chance he has a stroke or an MI. He is not doing well.
MI = myocardial infarction?
Yes
Cool, I still don’t know what that is but now I can look it up.
MI = HA
fyi
Yuuuuup. I think she’s out raising him, too.
Last I heard, her plan is exactly that:
Stay in until at least Super Tuesday.
I question my humanity when I enjoy demented orange grandpa screaming in rage.
Nah, he forfeited his humanity decades ago. Enjoy all you want.
Should Trump despising Biden supporters start donating to Nikki Haley?
Lol no. Donate to Biden.
He has zero opposition in primaries. Winning without being on ballot.
He still has to fight against Trump?
Not if we support Nikki Haley now. This is the whole point.
How the fuck does helping your enemy any better than helping your only ally? If she loses the nomination, which is fucking likely as hell, you just wasted money you could have given Biden. The reasoning is borderline Russia bot speak.
Wow… I wish just thinking you’re the plant.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Please consider yourself exposed. A five year old can get this:
Nikki Haley has ZERO chance against Biden in fall. We knock out Trump now because he might could maybe slightly stand a chance.
Every incumbent in modern times has done that so what’s your point?
Trick question, they have been the whole time, look it up
Awesome!
