In South Carolina, Nikki Haley Finds Some Distance from Trump (Nikki McRomBush)
teazilla.com ^ | 3/12/22 | Teazilla

Ms. Haley endorsed Ms. Mace on Feb. 7. Ms. Arrington announced her primary challenge on Feb. 8. Mr. Trump endorsed Ms. Arrington on Feb. 9.

Ms. Haley is no Trump foe. Most of her endorsements have gone to Trump-favored candidates. She endorsed on Thursday the re-election of Senator Ron Johnson, Republican of Wisconsin, and cut a fund-raising video with Herschel Walker, the former football star recruited by Mr. Trump to run for the Senate in Georgia.

She pointedly has not endorsed Mr. Rice for re-election. Mr. Dawson, the former state party chairman, said Ms. Haley’s campaigning for Mr. Rice in 2012 made all the difference in his victory over the former lieutenant governor, André Bauer, in the Republican primary. But Mr. Rice’s district on the North Carolina border is far more Trump country than Ms. Mace’s affluent, highly educated district that touches Charleston and hugs the Lowcountry coast.

Ms. Arrington is still talking confidently.

“The Lowcountry wants a pro-Trump America First conservative to represent them,” her spokesman, Chris D’Anna, said. “Nancy knows that, indicated by her tucking her tail between her legs as she flew to New York City to shoot an apology video in front of Trump Tower.”

Austin McCubbin, Ms. Mace’s campaign manager, responded, “Our opponent has proven two things — she’s the only Republican to lose this district in 40 years, and she will say just about anything.”

Mr. Sanford, the former congressman whom Ms. Arrington defeated in 2018, said Ms. Haley had nothing to lose. Once Ms. Haley expressed her anger over Jan. 6, she would never get back in his good graces, he said, speaking from experience.

My gut from day one has always yelled “she’s a sneak, do not trust”.

if she somehow gets to run for POTUS or VPOTUS, her ticket will get zero electoral votes from the southern states ... zero ... turning them from red to deep blue ... at least for that cycle ...

Because Trump district voters couldn't possibly be highly educated </s>.

My friends we’re on to her. The question is whether or not SHE knows it. How many people run in races not having a clue? Think Mark Sanford for POTUS-2020. Bill Weld the same. There must be a motivating factor. This is not that Chinaman from NY or the spiritualist. Tell me the others.

Tommy Thompson. The senate was not good enough. POTUS or nothing. Then There’s Bob Smith-NH. An exercise in futility.

The last I read, the score between Trump endorsed candidates vs. Trump haters was around 124-2.

Nikki is the first elected politician to use her executive authority for cancel culture. No matter what her virtues may be, that albatross shall never vanish from her.

When she worked for The President, she lied to The President.
