Nikki Haley’s GOP ascent adds to the well-deserved humiliation of desperate Ron DeSantis

  1. There’s an old porno casting scene with two women, Nikki & Hailey and that what I think of every time I hear her name.

  2. The media is so pushing Haley… I mean she had 5% of the GOP and they realized Trump is done. They have nothing to sell. Meanwhile understand she is wallpaper on the same agenda.

  3. Somewhat related – has anyone else noticed how thick her southern accent has been lately?

  4. The GOP would be wise to rally around Haley and encourage all of the non Trump candidates to get out of the race. There an outside chance they could cobble together enough support for her to stop Trump in the primaries and to have someone who is, at minimum, not a deranged lunatic as the nominee.

    But that would involve the GOP making wise decisions and that’s never going to happen

  5. My rank for the next presidency:

    1. Gavin Newsome

    2. Joe Biden

    3. Nikki Haley

    4. Kamala Harris

    5. Chris Christie

    6. Ron Desantis

    …..

    28. Nutless Monkey

    …..

    38. Carrot top

    39. Vivek Ramasamway

    40. Donald Trump

  6. She had secured her spot as “the person who is there if Trump is literally in jail and the GOP needs someone else”

  7. I disagree with the Author that Trump going to jail won’t move the needle on his support. These criminal cases have taken a bite out of his support, and as the verdicts come back I believe those will also hurt him.

  8. Haley is irrelevant, DeSantis just alienated too much of the republican voter base to be electable. He beefed with Trump to alienate the MAGA crowd, his blatant interference with Disney will alienate the libertarian/small government/ free market crowd, and his facist insanity will alienate anti trump moderates. People called him the smarter trump but honestly he has not been strategic in any way shape or form, especially compared to early Trump.

  9. This “ascension” is so overhyped by the media.

    Latest national poll has Haley at 7% to Trumps 68%. You’d think she’s closing in on him the way she’s talked about.

    In latest state polling:
    Virginia – 10%
    Minnesota – 12%
    New Hampshire – 18%
    Iowa – 12%
    South Carolina – 17%

    The only state she’s ahead of Desantis is her home state of SC and NH.

    And she’s 30% behind Trump in all of those except NH where she’s 22% behind.

    This narrative of closing in and a “rise” is so stupid – she’s rising to 3rd with a clear #1. Whoopie.

  10. Nikki Haley is simply a media creation. They want a horserace rather than face the unfortunate reality that orange cult daddy is running away with the nomination again.

  11. Dude I swear the GOPs honest to God strategy is that they’re hoping the Grim Reaper saves them at the last minute.

  12. She is such a vapid, empty suit. A wholly pandering, disingenuous amoral person. She’s pure naked ambition with no beliefs of her own other than what gets her more power.

  13. As a Biden supporter, I would not feel terrible if Haley won. I’d be disappointed, but could be honest in my congratulations to her.

    If Trump wins, I’ll be angry and fundamentally disappointed, as well as disgusted by my country.

  14. Haley is the biggest rabid war monger. I don’t know who to vote for. I would vote for the person who is most anti war.

  15. Why don’t republicans ever use her full name like they do when referring to Barrack Hussein Obama?

  16. Republicans want a younger candidate and wouldn’t it be great if they could get the first woman president? At least that is their strategy. Optics over policy.

  17. I would love to see the right vote for a women of indian descent with the name Nimarata. They’re still throwing around “Barry” like it’s some sort of gotcha.

  18. The only thing good about her is that she is kicking pudding fingers in th nuts. AND that is the only good thing about her.

    VOTE BLUE LIKE OUR DEMOCRACY DEPENDS ON IT, BECAUSE IT DOES!

  19. As much as I still don’t like her, at least I don’t feel like she will build internment camps.

    I think she would be horrible at the job but I think it’s at least possible that blatant fascism would write take hold under her leadership.

  20. They are promoting her because she does not threaten Donny at all. He can go about his trials, and delays of them all the while rambling on about nothing and fear-mongering, then just ignore that lady immigrant who doesn’t even use her real name anymore(something Trump would say).

  21. At a bare minimum at least she can smile in a manner that doesn’t look like they skipped the second page of instructions on an ikea cabinet

  22. I think Trump would continue to run even if in jail. And that would draw the party closer to him if anything.

    I think the rationale for everyone still in the GQP race is done to 3 words. He could die.

  23. Democrats have been screaming that we should get rid of trump. Haley is the furthest candidate from trump and still getting the hate. You guys just keep inventing excuses to spread hate and not recognizjng progress.

  24. man the media really *really* needs this to be a competition. if this was 2016 they’d have said she has no chance because she’s down 40 points in the polls. trump is so astronomically ahead in the polls 1 month out from the vote there’s no question of statistical error

  25. “What are the results of DeSantis debating Newsom?”

    “Umm. Nikki Haley up in the polls.”
