She didn’t bow to trump. She bowed to the billionaire oligarchs that she wants to support her in 2028. She knows who is running whatever you call the Republican Party. They will be there long after tRump due to Citizen United.

It’s actually got me a bit concerned that Haley could be Trump’s VP. That could be a game changer. We know Haley has no sense of loyalty and no personal convictions whatsoever. The challenge will be getting Donald Trump to accept her as his VP. Having demeaned her, calling her “birdbrain” and having heard the insults she had for him, he will really have to swallow his pride and that is a LOT to ask of Donald Trump.

I am so disappointed in her. Not really surprised though. If someone wants to remain in republican politics they have to kiss Trump’s ass.

Haley is such a moron.

Magas were never going to go for a woman, let alone a woman of color.

Now she’s lost the respect of the never trumpers too.

Bah bye Nikki. Take your lies, hypocrisy and political expediency with you.

Who is surprised? Just another climber. Especially cringy when women put their internal compasses aside to back this p*g.

Good choice! I think maybe 2-3% of the protest vote was actually in support of Haley. I’ll be curious to see if the protest vote share for her slides now that she’s caved. I’ve heard more than one Republican associate tell me that they’d crawl over broken glass to vote against little Donnie fuckface (I just love that name. Thanks, Jeff!). These are the voters who are going to write in a name before they vote for him in November because they can’t NOT vote.

You sure you wanna be the next Mike Pence, Nikki? Remember that scaffold in front of the Capitol on January 6th?

“there has been a consistent 15 - 20% margin of voters pulling the lever for her, even though she was officially out of the race.”

Maybe not the whole 15 - 20%, but I’m pretty sure a goodly number of those people would be filling in the circle for Hannibal Lechter if he was on the ballot against Trump.

Nikki is deluded if she thinks there’s that much love floating around for her. Also, if she thinks she’s going to be truly welcomed back into Trump World. Overcoming her apostasies against Orange Jesus would be bad enough. Add in gender and hue.

My money is on another apostate who seems to have sufficiently debased himself: JD Vance. Although I saw Tom Cotton’s name pop up and think he might be worth a side bet. Not really going with the conventional wisdom that he has to pick a woman. I fully expect to be wrong.

My hope is the sooner he has a running mate, the better. I don’t expect them to be able to bob and weave on questions like the master. First question: Is there anything you won’t do for Dear Leader in order to avoid having an angry mob hang you from a gallows constructed in front of the Capitol?

Precisely. But the Never Trump class will salivate at the possibility of having Haley on the ticket. Vance is a solid bet. Cotton - shudder - is just fucking awful

Yeah, there’s nothing good to say about Vance except that he probably wouldn’t be as dangerous as Cotton.

The entire Republican party is beyond redemption. Not a decent statesman among them. I've never felt so depressed about America than I have right now. :(

Yet there are enough of them, in enough states with EC votes to essentially win even when they lose by 5+%

I understand where you are coming from BUT my optimism is starting to build lately. From little acorns (and votive candles 🤞🏼)- we need to bolster each other. ✌️
