Former Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley is under active consideration by Donald Trump's campaign to be his running mate, news site Axios reported on Saturday, citing unidentified people familiar with the situation. Trump
could pick Haley if he were convinced she could help him win the presidency, avoid a potential prison sentence and cover tens of millions in legal bills if he loses, the report said. Haley, the former South Carolina governor and a former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, ended her log-shot challenge to Republican presidential frontrunner Trump in March. She said it was likely Trump - who...

Despite Winning the Pennsylvania Republican Primary, How Worried Should Trump Be About the 156,000 Voters Casting Ballots for Nikki Haley in Pennsylvania?
|

PJ Media ^
| 04/24/2024 | Rick Moran
Donald Trump won the Pennsylvania Republican primary with 82.8% of the vote. The
Keystone State's primary is closed, meaning only Republicans can vote. But is this cause for worry? Trump won Pennsylvania in 2016 by 44,000 votes. Biden won the state in 2020 by 80,000. However, former candidate Nikki Haley, who dropped out a month ago, received 16.5% of the vote in this year's primary, or about 156,000 votes. That's a healthy slice of the electorate in a state so evenly divided. We can assume that a significant portion of Haley's votes are going to be "hold your nose and...

Joe Biden has released an ad courting supporters of former GOP candidate Nikki Haley. The ad features clips of Trump insulting Haley and says, “If you voted for Nikki Haley, Donald Trump doesn’t want your vote.” The
ad urges supporters of the neoconservative former governor to “Save America. Join us." Biden shouldn’t need to work too hard for those votes since many people who voted for her were Democrats anyway. Data obtained by AP VoteCast found that 40 percent of those who voted for Nikki Haley in the South Carolina primary were Democrats who voted for Joe Biden in 2020.

While serving on the board of Boeing in 2020, GOP presidential candidate and former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley helped kill an initiative designed to force the company to more comprehensively disclose its spending to influence politicians and safety regulators, government filings show. Haley
joined the company’s board of directors after the two fatal 737 Max crashes in Indonesia and Ethiopia. Amid allegations of fraud and a coverup of safety problems following the disasters — resulting in a $243 million fine and $3 billion in compensation to airlines and victims’ families — Haley served on the board’s audit committee, according...

Two in 10 to as many as three in 10 Republican primary voters in Ohio continue to resist Donald Trump’s presidential candidacy -- and among those supporting Nikki Haley, half say they’d back Joe Biden in November, according to preliminary exit poll results from the Republican primary. While
majorities in preliminary exit poll data express loyalty toward Trump, the extent of intraparty challenges may matter in what’s expected to be a close contest in November. Despite his having sewn up the nomination, 21% of Ohio GOP primary voters would be dissatisfied with Trump as the nominee, 24% say he lacks...

It’s time for America to come together and make Donald Trump the next president of the United States. I was one of those who doubted he could pull off a second presidential victory and backed Nikki Haley. I was wrong — Trump is ready to be president again, and the country needs
him. Indicted 91 times by biased prosecutors out to stop him, Trump has engineered a great comeback.

Former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley says "I no longer feel bound by the promise I made to support the eventual GOP presidential nominee." She
justified her reversal, saying "it was made under duress. The Republican National Committee required that all candidates sign this pledge in order to be permitted to participate in the debates. Besides, as Lenin once said when he was criticized for breaking his election promise to give the peasants land, bread, and peace--'promises are like pie crusts, made to be broken.' He went on to totally transform his country in ways never seen before." "Anyway, it is...

Bill Maher has suggested President Joe Biden consider replacing his current Vice President Kamala Harris with either Nikki Haley or Republican Senator Mitt Romney in a bid to bridge the divide between the political parties. Maher
suggested that if Biden were to pursue such an unconventional idea, it would likely result in electoral victory for the Democrats as the GOP members would be running on a unity ticket. On the panel, journalist Tara Palmeri raised concerns about potentially alienating the core of the Democratic party, which includes black women. 'She's a woman of color,' Maher replied — referring to Haley....

Haley exit crushes moderate GOP climate hopes

| 3/6/24 | Timothy Cama
Nikki Haley’s departure from the Republican presidential race removes the last possibility of moderation on environmental and climate change policy in top GOP leadership. Haley’s
concession Wednesday, after only getting a handful of delegates in the primary contests, cements former President Donald Trump’s place as the party’s undisputed leader and presumptive presidential nominee against President Joe Biden. While Haley made energy and climate promises that were not very different from Trump, she earned accolades from conservative environmental organizations that wanted to back a Republican candidate who took the issues more seriously than Trump.

What does Nikki Haley’s loss in the Republican presidential primaries, a loss in which she gathered a substantial amount of votes but was able to win only in Vermont and Washington, D.C., tell us about the Republican Party? Among other things, it tells us, as if we needed another reminder, that the
GOP cannot return to the days of leaders like George W. Bush, John McCain, Mitt Romney, and Paul Ryan. Some loyal Republican voters have always been uneasy about the style of former President Donald Trump. They felt more comfortable in the GOP world of Bush, McCain, Romney, and...
