Welcome to The Campaign Moment, where the last major non-Trump and non-Biden candidate is now out.

The big moment Today the key moment is Nikki Haley dropping out of the presidential race the morning after Super Tuesday and effectively bringing the Republican primary contest to an end.

Haley announced her exit Wednesday after winning the Washington, D.C., primary on Sunday and Vermont on Super Tuesday, but losing more than 20 other contests to Donald Trump.

“I said I wanted Americans to have their voices heard,” Haley said. “I have done that. I have no regrets.”

Haley declined to endorse Trump yet, urging him to convince her voters to support him. Haley’s lack of endorsement stood in contrast to many reluctant establishment voices, like GOP Senate Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Wednesday, rallying around Trump.

The Post assigned a dedicated Reagan hater, Lou Cannon, to cover him for 8 years.

He dd his job well, never writing a single positive thing about Reagan.

Yep.

Considering they hated his guts and cheered when he was shot.

We have had a long hard slog to take the GOP from the "Money is GOD" group.

Reagan went up against the Republican Establishment of his day. Now every Establishment Republican claims to be a Reagan Republican.

But note: Reagan and the Establishment weren’t deadly enemies. After Reagan was elected, they made common cause with each other. But he challenged the party Establishment and forced it to make room for him and his policies.

Haley didn’t challenge the Establishment. She became part of the Establishment.

The BUSH GOP is no more. They rejected Reagans policies on inauguration day in 1989. They gave lip service to conservative policies like they have for 30+yrs and that’s it.

The BUSH GOP is dead and it committed suicide.

The ComPost HATED everything about Reagan!

Yeah, I remember that too. They supported Gorbachev, not Reagan.

They hated Reagan just like Trump.

Not hardly. Not even close. The level of hate Trump has been subjected to has never been seen in America.

Haley, you cannot even honor your vows to your husband. How do you expect us to trust you?

They would have arrested Reagan if they could. Do you remember Sam Donaldson?

That’s correct, notice they always talk about Republicans in the past fondly to prove how horrible the current Republicans are.

How many impeachments, indictments and arrests was Reagan subjected to? How many times did they conduct armed raids on Reagan’s private residence?

Exactly. The lying propagandists at the post despised Reagan then and the little rats who are there now would hate him too.

"Haley exits the race — and proves the Reagan Bush GOP is no more"

That bears repeating!
