Anyone whom the MAGA base suspects of being a RINO is a dead armadillo now. The best advice I could offer Pence and Haley is to disappear. Since they can’t go back in time, and since swimming against the tide is (at best) treading water, the best thing they could do is wait for the world to change. But they’re still here, acting like no one will remember they were caught swimming naked when the tide rolls back in.
Why is it that everybody but Pence and Haley can see this? As Richard Feynman put it, “The first principle is that you must not fool yourself—and you are the easiest person to fool.” It truly is the rare person who knows to quit when the quitting is good.
There’s a great story about how Jani Lane, the front man for the late ’80s glam metal band Warrant, realized in a split second his career was over. He walked into Columbia Records, saw an Alice In Chains poster over the secretary’s desk, and thought: “Hello Seattle, goodbye Warrant.” He wasn’t wrong. A year earlier, his band’s poster had adorned the wall. But times were changing, and grunge was ascendant. I think about this story whenever vanilla Republicans like Pence or Haley reemerge. The main difference between them and the “Cherry Pie” rocker is that they lack his realism and level of self-awareness.
While Pence and Haley might have been formidable Republican presidential candidates in, say, 2012, the party has moved on—whether they like it or not. Timing is everything in politics, as Chris Christie could tell you.

We need DeSantis in Florida and Kristi despoiled herselfMaybe we need another rogue from outside government to take over after Trump since we had much better results under non governmental Trump than any government anointed President since WW I.
ditto
“Did you get that bit of wisdom from the GOP directly? Pence, Hailey, and the other RINOs are in for extremely tough primaries.”

Well, I actually had a remote viewing session with George Soros, Barack Obama, Michael Obama, and Hilary Clinton...they have decided Trump’s new VP choice will be either Haley or Pence...they secretly met in a basement bathroom at the Obama estate on the Vineyard during his Summer B’Day bash...clothing was optional...?
Agreed it will be tough for RINOs like Pence & Haley to get the top spot...assuming DJT runs...But, Trump is pretty smart politically and may see a need to increase the GOP tent size with a compromise VP...more likely a woman...?
OTOH, Trump may say Efff it and go FULL MAGA and not give the CIA a reason to target him, lest his successor might continue MAGA...
DeSantis looks now like the most MAGA worthy and electable candidate out there...?
Any others...Jim Jordan...?
I pick MTG. We can trust her.
I really like her courage/chutzpah
The bad guys hate her because she doesn’t cower in fear.

I like President Trump, Ron DeSantis, and Jim Jordan. I cannot think of more off the top my head because most of the GOPe leadership are failures as leaders and as human beings.
I cannot wait to punish sellout RINOs in the Republican primaries at the federal, state, and local level.
Famous quote in England, though nobody ever says where it came from. Gloating today about how some politicians career has fizzled out is short-sighted. That happens to everyone in politics sooner or later.
Well there is that I guess.
