As far as we know, Nikki Haley isn’t on the short list, nor on the long list. There’s no indication that she’s being considered as Donald Trump’s VP pick, and Trump forcefully smacked down a report in Axios that the campaign was looking at her.
She’d still probably be the choice who, more than any other possible pick, would help Trump win in November.
By conventional rules, the former South Carolina governor getting the nod would be so obvious as to be completely unremarkable — she’s the runner-up in the nomination fight; she represents a different faction of the party; she provides demographic balance; she has executive and foreign policy experience; and she’s ready, to the extent this can be judged by resume and experience, to be president. Paint-by-numbers politics would make her a top contender, if not a shoo-in.
If, that is, she hadn’t criticized Trump in harsh and personal terms during her primary campaign. It’s one thing to criticize another candidate’s tax plan; and another to say he’s “diminished,” “unhinged,” “saying things that don’t make sense” and “not qualified” to be president. Any nominee would have a hard time swallowing those types of gibes, and Donald Trump is, shall we say, more sensitive to slights than most.
Trump gave as good as he got, turning what should have been a celebratory event the night he won the New Hampshire primary into an anti-Haley revival meeting.
All of this, though, is why her selection would be a shock and a potentially galvanizing moment in the campaign — it would show Trump to be willing to forgive and forget and put aside his personal feelings in the cause of saving the country from a second Biden term.

typical Journo puke. MOther/father worked in nondescript jobs he went to HS and then he went to college for a history and English regimen. Works at NR as editor. Pretty much an atypical, left leaning American, IMO.
How many deligates did she get,😂🤣😹😆🤣😂
Ben Carson please.
IMO-—SHE HAS DONE FRAUDULENT CAMPAIGNING-—
SHE TOOK DONATIONS FOR A JOB SHE IS NOT ELIGIBLE TO HAVE.
NO!
“Nikki Haley is still the strongest VP pick”
Maybe for Biden ?
No, you cucks may NOT choose President Trump's VP.
“Senior or Junior? Actually, it doesn’t matter.”
Senior was better. A thorn in Wilson’s side. Junior was a pantywaist
Several months ago I suggested that Haley might be the vice-presidential pick for Biden (or another Democrat) because it would create a "ticket of national unity" to use against Trump and his Deplorables.
Of course, on the negative side, it would expose the Uniparty in such a way that its existence could not be denied.
Another liberal rag! Perhaps Nikki should replace Biden, not Trump.
Somebody been dipping into Drew’s stash.....
Every day at school Rich Lowry got his underwear pulled over his head, his lunch money stolen, and the crap kicked out of him for being a lying little weasel.
Who said schoolkids aren’t smart?
These establishment types are morons.
Zero mention of anything positive that she might add to the ticket. It’s all my turn and looks the part bs. What a clown of a commentator.
RICK IS A PRICK! He is NOTHING BUT A DEMOCRAT!
nikki is a freak and an India Indian. She doesn’t even use her real name. Further, she is an obvious loser.
I agree. Haley, like Ramaswamy, like Rubio, are ascriptive 14A, §1, birthright citizens, not natural birthright citizens.
This is gonna be such an interesting election cycle.
I thought there was nothing that Trump did that would get me to change my mind. If he picks Nimrata I will not vote for him.
I don’t think she’ll be chosen for Veep.
What concerns me is she will end up as secretary of defense or some influential cabinet position.
She never got over single digits despite a full court press by the MIC over many many months. Nobody likes her. Will trump listen to his base?
Bringing her on board in any capacity will erode the trust in his judgement.
🤮🤮🤮👹🦏🤡
