Lots going on today. For those who thought that bygones would be bygones, well, you don’t have to worry about a Trump-Haley ticket. Heck, you don’t even have to worry about seeing Nikki Haley at the RNC convention, because she was not invited. These ‘PUMA desserts’ are just tasty [PUMA = party unity my ass].
Apparently, President Trump did not forget the entirety of the process from 2018 to 2024 that laid behind the curtain of Nikki Haley. {SEE HERE} Good news!
Personally, I hope this is a sign of much more intra-party confrontation still to come. Perhaps Haley can go play pickleball with Glenn Youngkin in her free time.
WASHINGTON DC – Former South Carolina Gov. NIKKI HALEY is releasing all of her 97 delegates and urging them to vote for DONALD TRUMP at next week’s Republican National Convention, our colleague Meridith McGraw reports.
“The nominating convention is a time for Republican unity,” Haley will say in a statement. “JOE BIDEN is not competent to serve a second term and KAMALA HARRIS would be a disaster for America. We need a president who will hold our enemies to account, secure our border, cut our debt, and get our economy back on track. I encourage my delegates to support Donald Trump next week in Milwaukee.”
Asked if Haley is attending the convention, Haley spox CHANEY DENTON said that Haley “was not invited, and she’s fine with that. Trump deserves the convention he wants. She’s made it clear she’s voting for him and wishes him the best.” (read more)
Trump clearly IS the party now.
I hope he has long coat tails and gets GOP control of the House and Senate. And if so, they really need to support him and give him what he wants. We have no time to “reach across the aisle” and compromise with the communists who want to destroy this country. There is no GOP. There is only a populist movement embodied in Donald Trump.
“NIKKI HALEY is releasing all of her 97 delegates”
Obviously VP is, thankfully, out for her, but I think releasing her delegates (not that it matters) is an attempt to win a consolation prize.
Trump: Keep your friends close but your enemies closer? ;)
AMEN to THAT! Excellent summary.
So, she had presumed, until the invites never arrived.
There was probably much concern about what Nikki would say on stage, once she had the live audience and the live Mike.
There would have been much Dirty Laundry to be aired, and at exactly the wrong time for the convention.
Tulsi for Veep!
With out 60 real Republicans in the Senate I hope they make the rats put on the depends and hold real filibusters.
Yes! Trump/Tulsi !!
Unbeatable ticket. It checks all points.
Kamala Vs Tulsi debates !!!
I actually like Tulsi. She seems very real.
But she’s liberal and we are conservative.
She's no longer a progressive -- she walked away from, and has fiercely denounced, the Democrat party for the last few years, and has espoused many conservative positions consistently. She still has some liberal positions.
But I would say she's crossed the center line from left to right, and is still moving to the right.
I think she's a good pick, if Trump wants someone energetic and spirited with strong love of America, not Party.
“She seems very real.”
Sadly, the multitude of gods she worships as a Hindu are NOT very real.
Would we have to change our motto to: “In gods we trust”?
You’ve got to be kidding? I hope you’re kidding.
Are assault weapons bans, reparations, no fossil fuels, ending electoral college, citizenship for Dreamers, all on your to do list? Must be, ‘cause they’re on hers.
That must be why the socialist bots are pushing a Trump/Gabbard ticket on “X” all day, for the past 4 days.
Because she’s such a Right winger now. B.S.
She’s a snake in the grass, democrat plant, nothing more.
Nobody has a 10 item Marxist agenda on their platform, and just changes their mind one day. Nobody.
I just hope that whoever he picks, they have energy and spunk, they can speak eloquently and make sense, they are honest and forthright, they can help make important decisions, and they love America and put America First.
Frankly I hope it's not a career politician. Because a standard-issue career politician, Republican or otherwise, will be a disaster. Hopefully Trump learned that from his first term.
I agree, I’m hoping he picks someone outside of the list of “probables” that’s being beaten to death.
The worthless lawyer from Cali. has held the job for 3.5 years, proving that anyone can fill the slot.
We need someone who will have Trump’s back, and promote MAGA values 100% of the time.
