Haley hopes to be Hubert Humphrey. Robert Kennedy had just won the California primary and looked to be cruising to the 1968 Democrat Party nomination when he was murdered on June 6. Until then, Eugene McCarthy was his biggest challenger, but after Kennedy could not be on the ticket, McCarthy (of Minnesota) was considered too far left by many and they threw their support to Humphrey, who was running third. In a contentious convention, Humphrey was nominated.

The RINO/Dem coalition are using lawfare to get Trump off the ballot, leaving Haley as the only viable nominee because no one else will have more than a few primary delegates. Haley, like most politicians, is guilty of believing her own BS and actually thinks she can win.

The Dems want to run against her because it will be a cakewalk, and they hope to goad Trump supporters into violence so they can justify a nationwide version of January 6.

Lawfare cannot remove President Trump from the ballots—even if he is convicted of a felony—even if he is convicted of Sedition.

The man to thank for that is an old Socialist named Eugene Debs.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugene_V._Debs

Mr. Debs was kind enough to get convicted for Sedition in 1918, lose all appeals to his conviction all the way to the Supreme Court and end up in jail in 1919.

That did not stop him however—he was a very determined fellow.

From prison he ran for President of the United States on the Socialist Party ticket and was on the ballot in all states in the election of 1920. He got more than 3% of the vote that year.

If he were alive today I would give him a high five.

Thank you Eugene Debs!
