Short note, because Nikki Haley makes it too easy to spot her conniving, poll-testing positions.
In a Twitter video she pushed today [LINK HERE], notice the team around her blurred the chyron.
What is it she is attempting to hide? Look:

Nikki Haley was always going to run in 2024 for the GOP nomination – SEE OUR ARCHIVES – this was never in question. All of her moves have been predictable since she left the administration in January 2019. However, Nikki Haley is also not necessarily running for the office of the President, she’s running to be in a power position for the office of the President. In the current construct, she’s positioning to be Ron DeSantis’ vice-presidential candidate pick.
2021: …”“I don’t think [Trump’s] going to be in the picture,” she said, matter-of-factly. “I don’t think he can. He’s fallen so far.” […] “We need to acknowledge he let us down,” she said. “He went down a path he shouldn’t have, and we shouldn’t have followed him, and we shouldn’t have listened to him. And we can’t let that ever happen again.” (link)
A few weeks later: …”Out of respect I would never do anything to go against [Trump], he knows that. I would have a conversation with him and talk to him about it should we decide we want to pursue it; but, um, no, I have a great respect for him and I would never consider running against him.” (link) Video Prompted:
In the role she has carved out and accepted, Nikki Haley is going to be the biggest attacker of President Trump on behalf of the management team protecting Ron DeSantis. Nikki has a very specific set of skills, including her willingness to be nasty – that makes her perfect for this role. Haley will be the tip of the spear, providing Ron DeSantis the opportunity to pretend he is just above it all.
Trump also knows DeSantis is pretending right now, and I have no doubt he can see the role Nikki Haley is positioned to play. Watch Trump continue hitting DeSantis as Haley moves in for cover.
You might remember President Trump hitting Xi Jinping of China every time Kim Jong-un of North Korea did a directed by Beijing stupid thing. He’ll do the same thing here. DeSantis in the role of Chairman Xi and Haley in the role of Chairman Kim. Each time Haley does the passive aggressive slaps, Trump will hit DeSantis with something.
Haley has no chance at the nomination. Coastal establishment Republicans love her, but that only means she will have money, not votes. The Republican voting base has seen through her schemes and wind-testing for years. Haley is not stupid, she knows this. Heck, even Liz Cheney polls higher than Nikki Haley.
Haley’s positioning right now is for 2023 power and influence despite her lack of base voter support. The best she can hope to achieve in 2024 is a VP pick to get her in the target zone.
Trying to rewrite history is not going to help her.
a ticket with her name on it will get ZERO electoral votes from the southern states ... ZERO ...
She QUIT being the UN Ambassador when Trump really NEEDED her in there! She’s a PHONY!
haley is nothing more than the nuevo Carly Fiorina, and she’ll have about the same amount of traction ... though no doubt her real motive is to nuke trump ... and of course, the the corporate propaganda media will lap up her vomitous bullshite ...
She lost her last important job for lying to the Boss.
Haley is being financed by someone to do her dirty attack dog work on Trump.
Haley has been Boeing’s b!tch in South Carolina and D.C. for years.
Coniving is what she is.
A Democrat spirit with a Republican face.
She’s got no constituency. NONE !
I wonder how many 737 MAX flights Nikki took???
Real name: Nimrata Randhawa.
I’ll wait for a columnist to make the list, but my memory is that she always slinks away from the right when she is being forced to openly choose, going back to the Palin days.
she was SC governor
correct ... several years ago ... then she went woke ...
AGAIN: Haley is NOT eligible. She is NOT NBC. PERIOD
NOT NBC
