    Trump is quite the idiot.
    You can’t possibly be thinking of voting for him?

    He's vastly superior to either Haley or Biden. Haley wants the forever wars to continue. All of these wars since the 1950's and America has gradually lost its share of global GDP during that time. It's not good foreign policy. It's not good fiscal policy.

    I’d roll the dice every time on Nikki over Trump.
    I already saw Trump in action.
    He’s a major embarrassment of a human.
    Sad that people would vote for him again.

    Although I would love to see her do so it's extremely unlikely. Not that there will be much of a possibility as long as the Republican Party is a cult of personality centered on the worship of Donald Trump an independent run by Nikki Haley would end even the remote possibility that she could be a successful candidate for the Republican nomination in the future.

    NH can be an outlier sometimes but it showed 3 things:

    1. College educated republicans won't back Trump again.
    2. Independents don't want Trump and will break even harder against him when he's convicted.
    3. The people that liked Trump before REALLY like him more now. But there aren't any new voters to be found there.

    Nicki is humiliating herself. Voters on the right don't like her. Voters on the left gave her a big boost last night. I pray she makes it to SC. That beating will be epic.

    One of these "men" claimed to have had a one night stand with her in Utah back in '08.
    https://www.fitsnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Affidavit-of-Larry-Marchant.pdf

    The other "guy," who is the editor of FITSNews, took his affidavit down. That guy should consider himself fortunate any biped would sleep with him.
    Marchant Signs Affidavit - FITSNews

    It's odd that the South Carolina Conservatives for Truth in Politics don't seem too interested in Trump banging a porn star while his wife was pregnant or sexually assaulting a woman in a department store. I'm sure they have a really good explanation for their "selectivity."

    Edit: The other "guy" claimed his encounter was in 2007. Interesting side note: when the below article was written his business partner was Nancy Mace.

    You are already starting to see it. Among college educated republicans etc they will start rationalizing all Trumps negatives and move more towards “whatabout Biden”, etc. Same with Fox News.

    The only thing that will keep Trump from beating Biden at this point is Trump. It is possible now that he is defacto nominee he gets more attention and college educated, women etc just get sick of it - again.

    Fortunately, our country has already decided that Haley won't be getting that chance this time

    I'm a lifetime member of the right who voted for Trump twice and will never vote for him a 3rd time. I'll write someone in before I vote for DJT.

    I don't care if Trump gives everybody the bird on Truth Social, I would take that over the forever wars that inevitably drain our wealth and kill our children. Anybody who runs on a campaign of fighting proxy wars should scare the hell out of people. I mean, it's one thing to support proxy wars, but to make it part of your platform on the stump.. it takes an incredibly Satanic person to do such a thing.

    I’m with you my friend.
    I voted for him twice as well.
    Never again.
    In fact, when Nikki is out, I’ll ignore politics for a term.
    I’ll be back when republicans get their head out of their asses.

    That's my stance on any politician. I won't pull the lever just because of the letter beside their name. I have to trust and believe in them as a leader. Because a vote for them is approval of what they do and stand for. Otherwise I won't vote at all.
