Former President Donald Trump has been asking allies and advisers for their thoughts about Nikki Haley as a potential vice presidential candidate, two sources familiar with the conversations tell CBS News.

The feedback from the MAGA crowd regarding putting Haley on the ticket if Trump wins the GOP nomination has been overwhelmingly negative, according to these GOP sources. Politico first reported that Trump allies are working to quash the possibility of a Trump-Haley ticket.

They’re folded:

They know he’s in it to stay.

They know he’s going to win.

That’s why they want “Bush” with Reagan.

They know the cheating will be microscoped.

Trump likes to get people to react.

[bankwalker]

you are wrong ... he will lose the south if he picks her ...

[Drew68]

SHE ALSO IS NOT ELIGIBLE. NEITHER OF HER PARENTS WERE CITIZENS WHEN SHE WAS BORN

Ask Trump if he believes four of his five children are equally ineligible to follow his footsteps into the White House?

Well, she is mediocre enough to be a vice president ...

[Drew68]

you are wrong ... he will lose the south if he picks her ...

I've been shown time and time again that there's no conservative principle his followers won't abandon if Trump swings the other way.

Nikki Haley has
1. not been adjudicated to be a natural born citizen
2. been too much of a hawk
3. been too much of a globalist.

Kristi Noem would be my pick for VP.

Kari Lake is another possibility.

Vivek Ramaswamy is better than Nikki in terms of policy, smarts and campaigning ability. He has not been adjudicated to be a natural born citizen.

Oh, horsefeathers! Like CBS News would have any “sources.” Birdbrain Niki needs to go away.

#TrumpHarris2024?

Foolishness you post.

“So was he supposed to NOT ask?”

No; he was not. He should have enough basic discernment to not even “go there”. It should not even cross his mind.

[SharpRightTurn]

In a very long line of very poor picks during his first term, this one (appointing Nimrata as VP) would be the absolute worst. It would also be proof positive Pres. Trump has not improved in this regard.

[Bigg Red]

Exactly.

[MayflowerMadam]

Carol Swain.

[Bigg Red]

You actually believe this story?

[bankwalker]

I’m not saying he will lose all of his followers ... I’m saying he will lose a percentage of the voting south because of her ...

I can see how it plays out. Trump wins, dies from a massive coronary 1 year later.

We get female Jorge Busch for the next 7 years with 3 amnesty’s and 6 wars.

[frank ballenger]

Yes, if only the humor of my sarcasm didn’t hit close to home.

We’re stuck with Kammie and let’s pray we don’t have Nikki, too. What a ballot compost heap.

[Bernard]

NIkki Haley would be the natural running mate for Boris Badenov.

[frank ballenger]

Hope you are right. You almost always are.

[Flaming Conservative]

Fake news, IMHO.
