‘I refuse to quit’: Nikki Haley vows to stay in the presidential race after South Carolina
NBC News ^

Posted on 02/20/2024 9:40:51 AM PST by Tench_Coxe

Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley made clear in a Tuesday address on the state of the GOP presidential primary that she's not going to drop out soon even as she significantly trails former President Donald Trump.

"Some of you — perhaps a few of you in the media — came here today to see if I’m dropping out of the race," she said. "Well, I’m not. Far from it."

Haley said "we all know where" calls for her to drop out are coming from, pointing to "the political elite, the party bosses," and "cheerleaders in the commentator world."

Agree entirely— she is funded by techno-dems and true rino and dino backing.

All makes sense when the globalism of the UN and her “job” done there and backstabbing Trump is taken into account.

People who think should see through this, and only reptiles with lizard brain reactivity could support it.

The purpose of the dems is to structure the election—and the attacks they would make on her were she to somehow survive would be legendary in media corruption.

The voters in South Carolina and the Super Tuesday states should stand tall and proud...and fire her.

Ever notice? Winners like Trump don’t have to make an announcement that they intend to stay in the race. Everybody knows it.

She has a big problem. She is unlikable.

*************

Agree. Not at all. She comes across as very whiny, self absorbed, entitled and delusional.

Not a good look at all.

Well, she is stupid and greedy, so there is that to explain her decision.

And she would deploy everyone else’s spouse to fight foreign wars. She wants you too, to feel her pain.

I recall chilling in the sandbox, puffing on a cigar, when a colleague mentioned their previous stint working in the White House during the Clinton era. They dropped a bombshell, claiming they had a story that would defy belief. According to them, the President wasn’t exactly who we perceived them to be. Allegedly, there’s a cadre of influential individuals who handpick the candidates for both Democratic and Republican primaries. They back their own candidates regardless of who ultimately wins the election; prior to Trump, they allegedly manipulated the primaries to their advantage. Trump broke this system.

Now, these same insiders are supposedly coaxing Nikki to remain in the primary race, earmarking her as their chosen candidate for the next presidency since they know Biden cannot win.

The issue at hand is: how do they plan to prevent Trump from securing victory in the primary?

That is how I see it. The only other answer would be to support a third party if they take President Trump out of the running.

Who has ever hyped a “big announcement on the state of the race” and then simply said they’re not dropping out?

This woman is an ongoing joke!

Nikki has a chance to accomplish something nobody has ever done before—lose all fifty states in primaries and caucuses.

She can do this!

It would probably be better to vote for the democrats directly than endure the GOPe death of a thousand cuts.

At this point, conservatives would have more influence as a large, loud, and demanding faction of the Democratic Party. If Haley becomes the Republican nominee, it will be time to test that theory.

"The only other answer would be to support a third party if they take President Trump out of the running."

If this country comes to that end, no party deserves a vote.

My question is...why isn’t her husband here in the States, on the campaign trail with her? He didn’t have to stay in the military once she announced, did he? It does make you wonder about her motives and if maybe Trump could be right to question Mr. Haley’s deployment.

The sun has gone down and the moon has come up
And long ago somebody left with the cup
But (s)he’s driving and striving and hugging the turns
And thinking of someone for whom (s)he still burns

(S)he’s going the distance
(S)he’s going for speed
She’s all alone (all alone)
All alone in her time of need
