‘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."

Pathetic — not sympathetic, that crying. And btw, I didn’t see actual tears. Fox should’ve cut her off the minute she said she was staying in the race.

She gave zero substantive reason to vote for her. Her whole campaign is:
1) I’m not one of the fellas

2) I’m not old, vote for me

I wonder if she is going to give up the Republican party she is destroying and go on the no labels ticket when she loses.

I suspect he wanted to get as far away from the campaigning as he could get. What better way than to be stationed out of the county for a year. Perfect timing for him, IMHO.

She really needs to quit — her style of negative campaigning is unhelpful.

The polling numbers are wild—President Trump’s huge leads have increased in the major states in the past month:

You can pick the states at this site:

https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-primary-r/2024/national/

The latest national numbers—a record shattering:

President Trump: 77.7%
Deep State Nikita: 16.6% (I bet there is another six there if they didn’t round—lol.)

Examples:

CA: 75.8% to 20.4%
TX: 83.2% to 13.4%

“Ah ain’t no ways tarrred”

Could you imagine the societal hysteria that would have spontaneously erupted if a white conservative had said that? I bet it would have spawned a hundred new words for "racism beyond even what Hitler would say." The main Democrat screech, Hillary, would have been leading the charge.

Like with the endless bogus lawsuits, DJT figures that having NEOCON Nikki in the race is the gift which keeps on giving.

I saw somewhere that Nikki staying in means two things for Trump: First, he doesn’t get access to the General Election campaign funds, and second, since he’s not the nominee or Presumptive Nominee, he doesn’t get briefings from the White House.

Haley is either STUPID.. or some type of POLITICAL deal has been made that we're UNAWARE of.

Perhaps they’re positioning Haley for a third party candidacy. The dems have a real problem if Kennedy runs third party and I’m betting he will. They will be desperate to find ways to drain support from Trump. I doubt it will work. Nonetheless, they’re becoming increasingly desperate, and Haley seems a willing dupe.

Briefings from this WH?

Lol.

I would get more reliable information from my dog—and at least he is not a pervert.

To the extent the current WH would actually do what they are supposed to do with intel briefings cleared to a former President from the cabal controlling the current occupier in the office. Mr. Potemkin joebama.

The number of fingers on the puppet strings in all this is becoming a vast spider’s web of potentials. Glad you thought of this one, and understanding the process of a nominally free national election.
