Nikki Haley, who campaigned on ending the “chaos” that follows Donald Trump, found herself in a strange position as the former president’s legal troubles exploded on Thursday.

Haley offered her long-sought backing of Trump just eight days before a 12-member New York jury found him guilty of 34 criminal counts of falsifying business records that could potentially carry up to four years in prison.

While other Trump 2024 rivals and vice presidential contenders have rushed to back the former president, Haley has yet to say a word as of Friday afternoon.

Since she dropped out of the race for the presidential nomination, she has continued to be a thorn in Trump’s side, amassing 97 delegates compared to Trump’s 2,219 delegates, according to the Associated Press.

Now some of her most ardent supporters suggest this is the moment for Haley to restart her campaign as a credible alternative to a convicted felon as the GOP nominee ...

I know a prick. They always need to have the last word. Prove me wrong and don’t respond to this post.

You are right. She will never get a single vote below the Mason-Dixon line.

We don’t think alike. I don’t believe in using the thoughts and words of the enemy, hypothesizing their reasoning, and conceding and granting quarter to them.

Do you think NY illegally charged then convicted Trump for an expired misdemeanor charge which morphed into a felony for another unnamed and uncharged crime just to have him go on probation ?


It is a possibility.

It really depends on what the end game is for the Democrats (who are orchestrating all this).

If all they want is to be able to label Trump as a “Convicted Felon” then yes, they will do what damage they can but no jail time.

However, if their end game is to provoke his supporters into violence then yes they will (try to) jail him.

The people behind all this may be insane, but are they also stupid? They have to see everything they have tried has failed to separate the man from his supporters.

Since I am not a mind reader I have to say it could go either way.

There is a old saying, beware of what you wish for, you might get it. The Democrats have gotten their wish but what will be the unintended consequences?
