I think you’re right that Haley probably put out that claim through her surrogates.
Ha.
Problem now is Haley will be “a woman scorned” like E. Jean Carroll and a certain trashy porn performer. Or even an envious sister who hates him for being better than she. Or spurned women from his past.
this means they are afraid of whoever they have been led to believe MIGHT be the top several leading contenders and they want to focus on the one or two that are Trumps most likely kill shots selections, for closing the deal with the American People.
they are trying to smoke out his selection because they are terrified of who they might have to attack and what the PERFECT top 3-4 contenders will do to the criminal uni-party.
