From the beginning of the GOP primary season, I said I didn’t think Donald Trump deserved a coronation. Voters needed a choice. I strongly believe that had the race always been a two-person race between Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis it would have been a much more competitive race, but that’s not what we got.
We had several candidates run audition campaigns, chipping away at the Trump-alternative vote. That, combined with the various efforts by the Biden administration to imprison Trump on bogus criminal charges, made it impossible for anyone to compete with the pseudo-incumbent.
DeSantis saw the writing on the wall and got out. Now it’s time for Nikki Haley to do the same.
At the moment, that doesn’t appear to be what she’s doing.
"Ron DeSantis has been a good governor, and I wish him well. So far, only one state has voted. Half of its votes went to Donald Trump, and half did not. We're not a country of coronations,” she said in a statement. "Voters deserve a say in whether we go down the road of Trump and Biden again, or we go down a new conservative road. New Hampshire voters will have their say on Tuesday. When I'm president, I will do everything in my power to show them they made the right decision."
So, she’s heading for a make-or-break moment in New Hampshire, which is a foolish endeavor.
Hours before Governor DeSantis officially suspended his campaign and endorsed Donald Trump, a CNN/University of New Hampshire (UNH) poll was released showing that his departure will most certainly benefit Trump in the state he was already winning. Among likely GOP New Hampshire voters whose first choice was Ron DeSantis, an overwhelming 62% named Trump as their second-choice candidate, while only 30% opted for Haley.

She is a proxy.
Turn out the lights the parties over. They say that all good things must end... And tomorrow starts the whole thing again.
Hat Tip to Willie Nelson.
Think about it Nikki, your support is you or dementia.
I hope she stays in and is beaten silly in every race
Good gif....
He probably represents the quality of the recent crop of political advisors. Kamala fired several at a time (one article said “dozens”) before dropping out against Biden for 2020.
GOP dropouts all tried “reboots” of staff and “new blood.”
Including several tries by DeSantis.
Haley is probably being told “hang in there.”
What the heck is a pseudo incumbent?
“I really hope she stays in and gets embarrassed with a huge loss in SC. Then hope we never have to see or hear from her ever again.”
Dittos. Get rid of her for once and for all. We won’t have to hear any sore loser griping from her.
All you FReepers that whined about DeSantis should have been looking at tue real deep-stater, Haley, this whole time.
This woman fooled a lot of people, and has the backing of the RINOcracy. She going to have a hard time quitting.
She cheated on her husband twice.... were those men drunk?
It was over before it even began.
However, many GOP donors are suckers & losers, so we’ll have to have patience until they pull their heads out of their asses.
Anti Trump stupidity in the GOP gets more ridiculous everyday.
It is interesting how this DeSantis supporter goes about trying to hold on to his Never Trump certification while trying to board the Trump Train when he writes, “ I didn’t think Donald Trump deserved a coronation. Voters needed a choice.”
And then complains about there being too many choices when writing, “I strongly believe that had the race always been a two-person race between Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis it would have been a much more competitive race…”
I saw a similar dilemma for another Salem Media writer over the weekend. And that is why it is important to buy your VIP access to help these people continue their gift.
Pair her with Tulsi Gabbard as the great “restorer” of unity candidates...yup could see the Uniparty doing this!
she grifted all of DeSantis’ donors and she has the support of all the democrats who can vote in open primaries.
Same with Trump haters, they know what they dont want. anything but Trump.
Stalin could beat Trump in america today.. People are slaves to hate.
It is impossible to free a man from the chains he has become accustomed to.
Hankles won’t stop until the billionaire money spigot is turned off. You can make serious dough even if you’re losing.
“Can Someone Tell Nikki Haley It’s Over?”
Or at leaat tell her to shut up!
Nikita could easily blow through a billion dollars this cycle while getting crushed in primary after primary.
If Hunter brings the coke the campaign could have one wild months long partee!
She and her backers knew from the very start she could never win the Presidency. This is all about the MIC and globalists throwing everything they can at Trump to stop or slow him.
