And she only wanted a strong third place finish in Iowa.
She’s on a roll! Surging! Unstoppable!

Sununu’s interview with Eric Bolling a few nights ago was embarrassing. Never forget that his father gave us David Souter.

She needs a strong 2nd place to keep going, if Trump beats here by 15 or 20 points in NH, there is no way anyone can make a serious argument that she’s got a shot... sure some establishment/globalist/uniparty hacks will try, but no one will buy it.

If she comes out of NH 10 or less, then they will pump her up like the did McCain and hope they can prop her up to get folks to buy into the illusion she’s a Trump killer.

Of course it wont matter, 2 weeks later she’ll get CRUSHED in SC.. which is the state she is the former governor of.... but they are hoping, beyond hope, that a strong finish in NH will give them 2 weeks of the Trump Killer reporting so they can try to influence folks to abandon Trump before SC... and it ain’t gonna happen, but that’s what they want! Don’t have to beat Trump but have to certainly be competitive.

Consolidation appears to be happening around Haley now that the uniparty/globalist/establishment has pretty much realized their astroturfing of Desantis has failed, so now they are trying their best to Astroturf Haley... and it won’t work long term, but near term she’ll get a boost as the consolidation happens. The problem is, is that while she’ll get the neverTrumpers to move to her as other candidates leave, not everyone who supports these other candidates are nevertrumpers.. as each one drops out, Trump will get some percentage of those voters. Nikki might get the majority of candidate A’s voters when they drop out, but Trump will get some percentage of them as well.... and Trump is already sitting at an undefeatible margin, with every drop out that gets Haley a boost, Trumps overall percenatage will grow as well, and he’s pretty much over 50% at this point.. I mean had Ramaswamy not been in IA, its pretty save to say Trump would have won IA with close to a 60% margin.

The math has NEVER EVER been there for anyone other than Trump to be the Republican nominee. Trump was the defacto nominee as of Jan 7, 2021 so long as he decided to run... Once he formally announced his intent to run, their was no path that existed in reality that was going to see anyone else be the nominee, as long as Trump was breathing, he was going to be the nominee.

The criticisms about supporting someone other than Trump, have been shown to be lies.... the electiblity argument is gone... Trump has been winning the national and the swing state polls for closing in on 6 months now... So, what argument or narrative can any of these establishment/globalist/uniparty chumps offer?

I said this in another post, the other night I was forced to watch the IA coverage on CNN my only options, and their political analysis is so out of reality its comical... Every time you say Trump you must say (Facing 91 charges or whatever)... etc etc... but 1 little bit of truth slipped out, and it was probably the most relevant piece of information any of their panel spoke all night, and rather than actually discuss it, they just ignored that it was stated..

They were talking about the polls and how Trump is winning the national and swing state polling... and they were offering up all sorts of spin on why this won’t stay that way... now that it’s pretty clear Trump will be the nominee Biden will attack and change his strategy and his numbers will improve....

So while this discussion of lunacy was goin on, the one guy, forget his name a republican pollster, bald guy, said THE MOST RELEVANT THING THAT ANYONE SAID ALL NIGHT..... “Trump never had the lead in polling, in 2016 or 2020, not once at anytime during either of those election did Trump have the lead in the polls.”

Now that’s EARTH QUAKE level reality, and they just completely ignored that statement and went back to bickering how Biden would win etc... If you had blinked you would not even know that fact had been uttered.

Yes, the election is about 9.5 months away, but Trump, who never had a lead in polling in the previous 2 elections, EVERY, is not only currently leading in the polls, both nationally and in the swing states.. his lead keeps growing... Yes, I am sure things will move around between now and Nov... but that’s a PROFOUNDLY HUGE fact that was just swept under the rug as quickly as possible.

Trump is a known entity... Biden is now a known entity.. both now have records to run on, and when American’s are asked who they want, they are picking Trump by an ever growing margin.

To quote Rob Leatham a world-renowned professional competition pistol shooter, “Its not whether you win or lose, it how bad you beat the guy that came in second that counts.”

You folks are missing something. It’s Sununu covering his butt before admitting he’s wrong. I have no idea what he wants now that he passed on the senate. A POTUS run would make him look dumber than fat boy Christie.

I don’t get it – Why does everyone cite Chris Sununu, Larry Hogan, Chris Christie, etc..? RINO, RINO, RINO. Who cares what they think??

Cross over voting is very easy in New Hampshire. All you have to do is declare yourself an Independent and ask for a Republican primary ballot. Easy peasy.

You don’t know how much dark money as been spent in Iowa and New Hampshire to try and boost Haley and Desantis I can say it is upto $300 million or more. New Hampshire is the only place she as any shot at beating Trump due to the nature of the state now it is not like New Hampshire of old it is irrelevant to GOP politics...she will still lose by about 10 - 15% points if not more.

Naw just devoted Uni Party Rino. You folks who are in the GOP need to do some serious problem fixing. You can start with the Head of the RNC and go from there.

Lowering expectations to define a decent 2nd place as a win.

But SC is next and its her home state. The polls show her way behind there. If she doesn’t win in NH and loses in her home state, I don’t see how she stays in the race.

Many Democrats will cross over to vote for Nikki when they really just mean the anti-Trump vote. They will vote for the Democrat in the general.

Lying Sununu is lying again. His claim kinda flys in the face of her statement after the Iowa caucus that New Hampshire can now fix Iowa’s mistake.

Second place in a two man race is not winning. Why is she wasting her time?
