After losing her home state primary, Nikki Haley is winless in contests so far in this election cycle. Sadly, she couldn’t even beat “Nobody” in the Nevada primary where Trump was not on the ballot because he chose instead to participate in the Nevada caucus where the actual delegates were allotted. One has to wonder what her motivations are considering she has no path to claiming the Republican nomination for president.
In at least two of the contests to date, Nikki has openly courted democrats who will not vote for her in the general election, in an effort to challenge the former president in open primaries. Of course, the democrats will use any useful idiot, Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger come to mind, in an effort to win at all costs. As long as the money holds out, Nikki will be able to lose until her heart’s content.
Speaking of money, her major contributors include a list of normally democratic donors along with the usual mishmash of “Never Trumpers”. She will continue her Quixote-like endeavor until these donors lose interest in her inability to even come close to respectable in any contest, let alone win. Nikki is using some of the same arguments against Trump that she used, as a surrogate, for Marco Rubio during the 2016 presidential primaries. She is consistent if nothing else.
Overnight, Charles Koch, who describes himself as a “classical liberal”, withdrew his support for Haley. I am sure others will follow and, when she runs out of money, her campaign will collapse. Next stop, CNN or MSNBC!
Sadly, as Gavin Newsome stated this past week, Nikki Haley is the democrats’ best surrogate and they will bombard the liberal leaning airwaves with her insulting remarks during the general election. She has single-handedly created an atmosphere of division in the Republican party and will make guest appearances on the aforementioned networks this fall.
Look for a rocky road ahead as the democrats will pull out all stops to defeat Trump and install the “Dead Man Walking” back in the White House.
Haley just lost Michigan too!
