Opinion | Nikki Haley Should Go for Broke

Wall Street Journal via MSN ^ | JAN 26, 2024 | Peggy Noonan

This shouldn’t even be a question.

A great party is trying to produce its presidential nominee. Donald Trump is the leader in the contest so far, and looks likely to be the victor. But the cycle has just started (61 delegates allocated, 2,368 to go) and the party isn’t united, it’s split, roughly 50/50 pro-Trump and not.

Nikki Haley is right to stay in and fight. No one has the right to shut her down. She’s stumping in her home state, South Carolina, and getting a lot of advice.

[married21]

She is too shallow to be a real conservative. She is into how things look, not whether they are Constitutional or moral, imho.

[cgbg]

OK—but how can she ignore math?

The numbers are not opinions, they are facts!

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Coming from a Murdoch rag!

[Political Junkie Too]

Peggy Noonan has been disgruntled ever since the Bush reelection team rejected her outreach to join them back in 2004.

Republican party support for Trump isn’t 50 / 50 as long-time RINO Noonan states. Party support for Trump is documented at the very least at 70 / 30 in Trump’s favor, and growing stronger daily, which undermines Mizz Noonan’s assertion that Nikita should continue campaigning.
The only purpose that Little Nikki’s campaign serves is as a vehicle for phony RINO republicans and various drive-by journalists like Peggy to attack Trump and his supporters, which amounts to most Americans. They can criticize the MAGA Movement through Haley’s campaign without having to identify the source of the criticism, typical political cowardice from sleazy Swamp creatures who don’t want to step up and take the heat for their anti American, pro Globalism views.
BTW, globalism requires the death of the US Constitution, which is why they have never allowed the American people to vote on it. Globalism cannot survive in any country that holds free and fair elections because the voters could easily reject globalism and vote for somebody like a nationalist whose concern is for his own people, and not the rest of the globe. Perhaps somebody like ….Donald John Trump, for instance,
There’s a straight line from the treasonous globalist supporters and the hatred for President Trump.
Gee, I wonder why….

“Was It Always About the Money?” Rand Paul Reveals the Real Reason Nikki Haley Loves War (Jan 24, 2024)

I wouldn’t be surprised if the WEF was financially backing Nikki, given that she’s a RINO just like Shrub Jr.

Today I was approached in the Safeway parking lot, asking if I was registered to vote, I told the fellow yes, and then he asked if I wanted to join a party to vote in the primary. I told him I was already registered in the party of my choice.

As I walked away, I decided to ask him what organization sent him. "Advanced Micro Targeting". "I see, and who hired them?" He told me it was "a bi-partisan effort." He struck me as a decent sort trying to earn a living, so I didn't dig further. But who would be interested in voter turnout in the Arizona primary? Never-Trumpers? Maybe never Kary Lake-ers, as this is Scottsdale, which is fertile RINO ground in terms of Arizona.

[Dahoser]

Peggy and her fellow GOPe believe those 70% of Republicans supporting Trump to be rubes who need to be led by the 30%.

[cgbg]

I am not sure Peggy can count to 70...

Lol.

[hinckley buzzard]

She’s still pining for Ronaldus Magnus.

[Dogbert41]

I’d rather vote for Tulsi Gabbard! Nikki Haley obviously has long since taken the deal offered her by the same pieces of sh$t that tried to buy Kari Lake and have destroyed the Republican party.

[DPMD]

In other words, the more haley goes, the more likely the donors become broke.

Leave it to noonan to pimp the democrat.

[Jim W N]

GO WOKE AND GO BROKE!!!!

[Bishop_Malachi]

Chris Matthews always referred to Peggy Noonan as his favorite Republican, says all you need to know about Peggy Noonan.

Peggy has sucked for quite some time.

[McGavin999]

Yeah, it’s a lot easier when you are burning through other people’s money.

[frog in a pot]

Or better yet, though she may have to step aside from a few of her donors, as a service to her nation she and a local AG could look for a court that will kick her off the ballot for not satisfying the NBC clause of the U.S. Constitution.

She could then (perhaps) ultimately get it to the USSC for consideration. She might well be regarded in future history books as a true and courageous patriot.

I will concede this may not be the strongest court we have had for a while to consider such a politically charged and well entrenched issue.

However, one can only suppose there will be a better court in the future if one is confident there will be no future stolen elections.

Before declaring, "Oh no, here we go again..." think about my tagline.

[HamiltonJay]

Peggy, give it up.

I know the establishment GOP is more than Happy to have another Biden term.. they were active and passive participants in the 2020 steal, and having Nikki hang around to try to damage and divide the base as long as possible only helps Biden....

But give it up... Nikki is irrelevant, she’s been irrelevant, just like Desantis was and is irrelevant. Trump was the nominee as of Jan 7, 2021, so long as he chose to run... He has, and its over.

She is free to stick around, but she’s not going to win anything. She was decimated in IA, and absolutely CRUSHED in NH... Oh I know, you want to spin it that she wasn’t, but everyone knows Nikki’s support was from democrats. If you filtered out the folks who voted for her in NH that voted for Hillary and Biden in the last 2 general elections, She would only get about 20-25% of the vote, and Trump well over 70%.

Trump got more votes than anyone in the history of NH Primaries.. including the lauded 2016 Bernie win there, that everyone lauds as “historic”.

Yes, technically the Primary continues, and Nikki is free to continue her lost cause if she wants to.. but make no mistake about it... when you’re banking your victory in the GOP primary or DEMOCRATIC VOTERS, you have lost... and this is where Nikki is, and is going to stay.

She represents, like yourself Ms Noonan, the GOP of Bush, Romney, McCain... and the base is through pulling the lever for folks who they know are going to just sell them out. Hell Senate Republicans just this week again tried to sell out the country with an asinine immigration “reform” bill... that would do absolutely NOTHING, until more than .5% of the US current population crossed the border each year!!

What is happening is a bloodless revolution, and we know the old guard isn’t going to roll over, they are going to keep pushing their lies and falsehoods and corruption because they like their corruption and the perks they get with it. We aren’t going to just pull a lever for more of the same.

The government and the parties are owned by people who don’t give a damn about the people or this nation... they are happy to sell it down the crapper, just as long as they get get a cut of the sale in their back pockets.

Nikki is free to keep running, but she’s irrelevant. I know you and your ilk who are part of the old corrupt guard will keep encouraging her to do so in hopes that you can split support and Damage Trump as much as possible for November. It’s not going to happen, and the longer she stays in the more she reinforces to everyone supporting Trump, exactly why they are correct in their choice.

[Seruzawa]

Aww, look. Another Assistant Democrat has an opinion.

[Seruzawa]

Haley always looks like she just got an ice water enema.

[cornfedcowboy]

Why call her Bird Brain? Haley is a lot of things…but she ain’t stupid.
