Nikki Haley, Tim Scott and more to blitz Iowa, S. Carolina in 2024 ‘preseason’
Washington Post ^ | 2.3.23 51 minutes ago | Hannah Knowles and Dylan Wells

Former United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley plans to launch her presidential campaign in less than two weeks with an event in Charleston, S.C. Sen. Tim Scott will kick off a “listening tour” a day later — from the same city — before following Haley to Iowa. Former vice president Mike Pence will be in Charleston next week.

And Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will start traveling the country after the Feb. 28 release of his memoir, headlining back-to-back GOP dinners in Houston and Dallas where “platinum sponsors” who chip in $50,000 will get photos and tickets to a VIP reception.

The more Never Trumpers running the better to split the vote.

DeSantis — who has dodged questions about 2024 but is privately taking steps to prepare — is expected to travel to California right after his Texas stops, for a March 5 event with the GOP of Orange County. Some Republican donors have flocked to DeSantis. But many are waiting to see how the field shapes up before picking a side.

No. What they are doing is showing the party how much of a force they can be. They don’t expect to win, but it helps get ambassadorships or committee seats if they do really well in the primaries.

The conservative Palmetto Family Council will host a 2024 forum in South Carolina on March 18 — a poster advertises “invited guests” including DeSantis, Haley, Pence, Scott and Trump as well as former secretary of state Mike Pompeo, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and South Dakota Gov. Kristi L. Noem. But it is not clear who, exactly, will attend.

If NH is listening, here’s a message:

Don’t bother running.

America doesn’t want you.

Yup. And I pity anyone who donates money to them. A fool and his money are soon parted.

No...they are raising money from schlubs which they then use to pay for their “campaign”...and most of the payments go to outfits that they or members of their families own...nothing but a money laundering scheme.

If they get a political bump out of it...gravy...it’s all about the skim.

Corruption to the core..both parties

“These folks are wasting time and money.”

They’re not wastng money; they’re making money. Once they lose the elections they get to keep all the money donated to their campaigns. They know they won’t win, but probably already are shopping for the new mansions they plan to buy with the loot they’ll have.

Trump, Pompeo, and Desantis are the only conseratives on that list.

Looks as though CNN-NBC is picking the group.

Pompeo is as Deep State as one can be. DeSantis is also beholden to the NeoCon war-seekers, which is why they support him. Neither is acceptable.

I think it’s too early to know who will really run.

I agree. They are all DOA as far as I am concerned.
