Haley Rally Crowd:
Posted on 11/23/2023 8:19:32 AM PST by SeekAndFind
While the 2024 presidential election is still a year away, the Republican primaries are almost upon us. The Iowa caucuses are on January 15, and the following Tuesday, New Hampshire will hold its first-in-the-nation primary.
That's not much time for former governor and UN ambassador Nike Haley to make up 50 points or more in the polls.
Obviously, that's not going to happen. And realistically, Haley's chances depend on limiting Trump's victories in the early primary states and then winning some later contests in South Carolina and Michigan in late February.
“Nikki Haley is certainly locking up a lot of the Never Trumpers,” said Matthew Bartlett, a Republican operative who has worked on several presidential campaigns and is unaffiliated this cycle. “She also has real room to grow.”
The problem for Haley is that there aren't a lot of "Never Trumpers" to lock up. There never were.
But since perception is the coin of the realm in politics, Haley's only shot is to alter the perception of Trump as an inevitable winner. She can do that by starting to cement the support of the anti-Trump minority.
“Never Trumpers and ‘Anybody but Trumpers’ are really consolidating around her from a financial standpoint,” said Gross, who was chief of staff to former Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad.
There's a lot of money in the anti-Trump donor pool. There's certainly enough to run a credible campaign into the Spring.
Haley is benefiting from this recent surge of support. She is now polling ahead of DeSantis in New Hampshire, the first primary state, and in her home state of South Carolina. One recent survey showed her running neck and neck with DeSantis in Iowa.

Remember in 2016 when each GOP candidate had their turn as the “flavor of the month”? The GOP establishment has given up on DeSantis and now turned to Haley to be the anointed one to beat Trump. However, according to the polls, the voters still favor Trump.
I have no doubt that Democrats would try to bar her from taking office on the basis of the natural born citizen clause.
And given the nature of the Deep State and John Robert’s PPACA decision, I don’t want to give the courts another chance to stab the American people in the back.
This demonstrates just how weak leadership is in the R party.
You are wrong. The second choice for most Trump voters is RDS, and vice versa.
The establishment/globalist/Uniparty has concluded DeSantis is stillborne and now trying to push Haley as their great white hope…
It’s all a laughable exercise… rearranging deck chairs on their titanic…. Thinking/praying, that somehow, this time, their Titanic won’t be sunk by the iceberg called Trump.
At this point desperation is setting in. Trump is not only beating Biden in head to hear polling everywhere… so their leverage to have any establishment candidate even as VP on the ticket is dwindling by the day..
AGAIN___
AND CONTINUING INTO 2024————
HALEY IS NOT ELIGIBLE TO BE PRESIDENT.
SHE IS NOT NATURAL BORN CITIZEN
NEITHER PARENT WAS USA CITIZEN WHEN SHE WAS BORN HERE.
SHE IS ANCHOR BABY-—ONLY-—WE HAVE MILLIONS OF THOSE.
Primary opponent!?
She along with her gang of ‘primary opponents’ are hanging on to their single digit rankings merely hoping Trump gets indicted and goes to jail
They believe we’re stupid
Yup !
Perfect moniker for her.
Also, those who did go for it are banking on one thing, that Trump gets eliminated by lawfare, not by voter rejection.
Says a lot regards their mindset, in acceptance of the moves provided they themselves are not in the crosshairs.
Haley Rally Crowd:
OBAMA was MORE THAN ENOUGH
Primary opponent. 😅
DeSantis is bought and paid for by EVERY damn RINO on the planet, DeSantis has ALL THE WRONG people surrounding him THAT was a HUGE mistake by DeSantis, but DeSantis NEEDED their money!! DeSantis has had a good run in FL. HOWEVER DeSantis has also had the luxury of BOTH state houses on his side very easy to govern with both state houses on your side, SORRY DeSantis does NOT have the fire in the belly to FIGHT the system!! Once DeSantis took the money of ALL the people we hate HE WAS DONE! It is such a shame but he has DESTROYED his political career, the base would have been 1000% behind him in 2028 he would NOT have needed the money of ALL the SCUM we hate, of ALL the SCUM that has helped put our country where it is today!!
Trump Tuck 2024. Copyright that.
She leads the single digitters when Trump is included.
But if Trump is prevented from running then I am sure people will start considering Vivek the Swamy. He is the only one that isn’t a deep stater AFAIK.
The Republican Party simply does not represent the vast majority of its voters.
It’s a threadbare base and is only in existence because of the globalists who continue to fund losers like DeSantis and Haley.
If those two clowns did care at all about this country and it’s citizens over their donors, they would both drop out of the campaign, support Trump, and attack Democrats and Biden at every opportunity.
What a joke...She’s a loose cannon...she’s going no where in the end.
Yes, vote for Li’l Ronnie, who is such a Winner that he’s scrapping to hang in until the primaries just in case his friends the Democrats manage to remove Trump via lawfare from ballots in swing states.
Pathetic
