Trump campaign considering Nikki Haley as running mate, Axios reports
Reuters ^ | 05/11/2024 | Staff

Former Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley is under active consideration by Donald Trump's campaign to be his running mate, news site Axios reported on Saturday, citing unidentified people familiar with the situation.

Trump could pick Haley if he were convinced she could help him win the presidency, avoid a potential prison sentence and cover tens of millions in legal bills if he loses, the report said.

Haley, the former South Carolina governor and a former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, ended her log-shot challenge to Republican presidential frontrunner Trump in March.

She said it was likely Trump - who repeatedly belittled her candidacy - would be the Republican nominee but did not endorse him.

VIVEK IS NOT NATURAL BORN CITIZEN

AMAZING how many people try to run for this office when they are NOT ELIGIBLE.

A FLIM FLAM TO HAVE A PILE OF MONEY

The ONLY reason I would not vote for Trump is if he would pick Nikki “Nimrada” Haley for VP.

At this stage of the campaign, rest assured the saboteurs a feverishly working inside the Trump campaign. The Deep State has innumerable β€œuseful idiots” willing to sell out their country scattered throughout the Republican Party, Congress, the Judiciary, and the Administrative State. Hopefully, Trump is far wiser than he was.

My point is, hopefully this does NOT happen, Trump will seek to unite all sides of the Republican Party, similar to Ronald Reagan selecting Bush 41 as his VP,

And Reagan should have dumped him in 1984, as he was no longer needed. Indeed GHWB became both a political liability and a destructive force in undoing what Reagan was accomplishing.

I’ve always found information “from unidentified people familiar with the situation” to be highly reliable. 🀑

He has no political career.

This is the #1 first consideration.

Your wacko perspective on people being born in US jurisdiction somehow not being in conformance with the Constitution and various items of case law as natural born citizens is just bizarre.

What do you not understand about the TOTAL IMPERATIVE of draining the Swamp.

Ramaswammy is not only a jerk but also born of two non-citizen parents. He adds NOTHING to the ticket and like Haley, would lose people. If forced to chose between the two, I’d pick Haley, as she has at least married an American, grown up as an American, been a governor. Ramaswamy grew up Indian, married an Indian, is raising an Indian family, hires Indians in his workplace, not Americans. He’s just part of an invasion, zero assimulation.

First off, like Reagan, Trump was forced to pick Pence. But the answer to your actual question, neither would be better. Both are equally terrible In fact, either would be the death of Trump being reelected, as many would just not vote..

Take it to the bank, he will NOT PICK HALEY, period.

Once in awhile a fierce opponent from the right comes out and tears up the press and all the right wingers all go he’s out man!

Some check out his background and what he actually accomplished in the past..and realize this guy is a PLANT.

The left does the same..only the media backs whoever it is ...even if he is a schuck jr senator peddling something as intangible as “hope” and “change”

That would guarantee his assassination. He needs to pick someone who is hated more than him.

Trump needs to be very careful with the women he chooses to work with him. Many have turned on him and Melania quite viscously. Of course, many of the men have too, but the women become particularly nasty in my opinion.
