‘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."

It becomes difficult to determine when perseverance stops, and stubbornness sets in. Doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result “the next time”, is - a sign of something, which may or not be insanity but it is certainly tiresome to watch.

High hopes, a state of mind formed while under the influence of mind-altering situations or substances. Euphoria occurs, and soon mounts up until it becomes mania. Much mischief ensues.

Nikki talks like she is related to Lizard Cheney.

If the Biden regime takes out Trump (which I won’t rule out), any of the other candidates who have “suspended” their campaigns would be preferable to Nikki. I won’t vote for any ticket that has her on it.

One thing seems obvious at this point. Haley is an option (for whatever reason) the deep state believes it must maintain.

Kennedy would lead that ticket.

Still would lose to Trump, though.

We need to transition to state-by-state polls and start comparing the Electoral College predicted results. Who knows - it may come down to Maine or another small state.

The RNC should fund K/H in Maine to pick up another EC point or two...

For those who don’t RTFA, the SC primary is this Saturday.

My read is that Nikki’s campaign shocked the Deep State with its rapid descent.

The Nevada “none of the above” drubbing was very important and imho unexpected—President Trump’s polling numbers have significantly improved since then—from already high numbers.

At this point the Deep State has gotten so big and so complex with so many players that they are no longer nimble and cannot react quickly.

They have funded her through Super Tuesday and after that annihilation she will disappear into Liz Cheney land—the final resting place for Quisling Republican politicians.

“After we imprison President Trump and he has his ‘accident’, Bidet will step down after crapping himself on stage. Heels-up Harris will remain as your VP choice on the fusion ticket of the demo-rino party. You will receive your instructions on how to act, soon.”

She may be krazy, but she has support from the TDS donors.

I listened to the speech long enough to know she is staying in the race. I hope Trump crushes her on Saturday!

More like Joe (aka Rutabaga) goes down.

The Dems annoint Nikki, after Harris is stricken with a rare STD condition. She chooses H.R. “Herself” Clinton or Michael “Broad-Shoulders” Obama as her VP running mate.

Thus becoming the national uniter and uniparty queen, after understanding her job and life would be the riskiest ever faced by a national ruler since Julius Caesar.

Is Haley going to be the Republican on a unity ticket?
