Haley: If I Thought Trump Was a Great Candidate ‘I Wouldn’t Have Run for President’
Breitbart ^ | 09/08/2024 | Pam Key

Posted on 09/08/2024 10:41:03 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley on Sunday’s broadcast of CBS’s “Face the Nation” said if she thought fomer Presdent Donald Trump was a “great” candidate she would not have run for president.

Partial transcript as follows:

MARGARET BRENNAN: You said you’re on standby. In other words, you haven’t been asked to campaign. Are you advising at all on his debate preparation or speaking to the campaign?

HALEY: I’m not and you know, that’s his choice. He can, you know, whatever he decides to do with his campaign, he can do that. But when I called him back in June, I told him I was supportive. I think the teams have talked to each other a little bit, but there hasn’t been an ask as of yet. But you know, should he ask, I’m happy to be helpful.

Stop embarrassing yourself Nikki. You must have been looking in a mirror when you said that.

You lost the primaries miserably Nikki. Now who really is a bad candidate?

“I dislike her very much. She gives off creepy vibes.”

Because she is going to destroy him the very first chance she gets, I feel it too. Trump needs to put a restraining order on this monster. In no way should he let her inside his bubble of trust.

“But when I called him back in June, I told him I was supportive. I think the teams have talked to each other a little bit, but there hasn’t been an ask as of yet.”

Which begs the obvious question — why is she even on the Sunday news show? She has no news and is irrelevant.

Of course the answer is that the MSM want to hear her trash Trump and divide Republicans.

Not only two faced but STUPID. She has a job with a think tank now, Hudson. She should stay there and make speeches to other neocoms. She is a traitor to America, dissing the republican candidate with Harris in the wings.

“But idiots run to post whenever she lobbies for a position inside the Admin, which is obviously her following Deep State protocol.

If you haven’t figured out Nikki and Lindsey Graham, please only share your thoughts with your parole officer.”

Absolutely, she would take him out before she would ever be loyal.

I’d respect the honesty if I thought that’s what’s actually driving her choices and her comments - but it’s not.

What’s behind her dislike of Trump is stupidity, and what’s behind her comments is saving face. She realizes now that she chose very, very badly. She was never going to win the nomination, she ran as a spoiler - and failing even in that - she is now of zero use to either the Democrats or the Republicans.

Her offers of support in defeating the Democrats are not burn of sincerity or honesty - she is simply trying to salvage her political career by playing the part of the graceful loser willing to help the one who won.

Don’t trust this woman - she’s a snake in the grass.

In light if this,

You respect her honesty? She’s lied more times than one can count, but leave that aside for the moment. She’s talking about offering her help to the Trump campaign and then makes a comment like that? Whether it’s true or not isn’t even the point.

If you’re trying to mend fences and offer your assistance, you don’t make a comment like that. Nikki is under the illusion that she has some sort of leverage and is calling the shots. It’s that kind of arrogance that has landed her exactly where she is - all alone without a party and without friends.

She was running because she expected the democrats’ zillions of indictments would take him out of the running. She didn’t understand the Trump that his MAGA voters did. He’s a fighter the likes of which Haley will never know.

He own ambitions made her fight against her old boss, and now, she’ll never be considered a viable candidate for republicans. Perhaps as an independent, but them, how many independent ever made it to the presidential race with enough votes to matter. Haley doesn’t matter, We the voters retired her.

With what I know now, if Haley was running on the GOP ticket, I'll vote for RFK Jr.

This is a pipe dream. Trump has appeared in many hostile situations to reach the haters. No one could have done more. You can’t be honest and appeal to everyone and trying torpedo’s your candidacy.

She doesn’t even care about her political career. She has only one loyalty and agenda. She is paid very well to be loyal to the deep state period.

If she gets inside the perimeter of the compound she will be stepping off and mapping targets for the incoming enemy mortar rounds...

“She’s on standby. but now she says this.”

If you’re a politician trying to stay relevant in today’s tornado fast news cycles, you just have to get your name out there. Over and over. It doesn’t matter what you say so long as your name is kept fresh in the public’s mind. The public, in general won’t know what you said or said you stood for when they pull the lever for your office. They’ll only know that they saw your name more frequently than the other candidate’s name. At least, that’s my theory. Given the plethora of conflicting statements from people in the public eye nothing else makes sense to me.
