Nikki Haley Is Starting to Look Like a Real Threat to Trump
Yahoo / Daily Beast ^ | Aug 29 | Matt Lewis

Is it time for Republicans to take Nikki Haley seriously?

According to a new Emerson College Polling survey, “Haley saw the largest increase in support among Republican candidates, jumping 5 points from 2 percent to 7 percent” following last week’s debate.

“Nikki Haley’s support increased from about 2 percent to 9 percent among voters over 50 [years of age],” said Spencer Kimball, executive director of Emerson College Polling, “while Trump’s support dropped within this age group from about 56 percent to 49 percent after the debate.”

This jump is modest, inasmuch as it still leaves Haley in the single digits. But it’s also no outlier. According to a poll conducted by The Washington Post, FiveThirtyEight, and Ipsos released last Thursday, voters were persuaded to at least give her a second look. “Pre-debate, 29 percent of GOP primary voters who watched the debate said they were considering voting for her,” according to the survey, “and that increased to 46 percent after the debate.”

So how did she do it? Haley caught our attention by being first to hit Trump (from the right), when she criticized him for “adding eight trillion to our debt.” This surprised everyone, demonstrated courage, and put to rest the notion that she is merely running to be Trump’s vice president.

Like she’s wanting to actually kill him?

Because thats the only kind of threat she could even attempt to pose to him.

Any reason she is not using her birth name?
Nimrata Nikki Randhawa


Because Vivek Ramalamadingdong is already in the race with a very foreign name.

DeSantis is much more palatable than her. She’s a manipulative phony. She’d slit her Mother’s throat to get ahead.

OMG!!! She's almost at DOUBLE DIGITS!!!

If anything, she's a threat to DeSantis. If they wish to take out Trump, the sooner they rally behind one challenger, the better. But they won't.

It looks like the photographer told the crowd, “Alright, everyone, let’s crowd around Nikki so we can fit you all in the picture”.

Decisions get made. Going forward the narrative must be adhered to. Endless waves of propaganda will follow. Questioners will be canceled. The vote of the public is bread and circuses.

“Believe the US Supreme Court, if and when they rule on this. Until then, we have John Roberts swearing in Barack Obama. Twice. There’s really nothing to debate.”

If the Democrats can find a basis for booting Nikki out of the Oval Office, they will.

There is not a court in the land that is stopping the unjust legal treatment of Donald Trump.
