A lot of people thought she was going to go all the way to the RNC, but I didn’t think she would last that long.

Now the question is what they’ll do if Trump gets convicted. Not every trial will be delayed until after the election.

    Haley’s campaign, while well-intentioned, was based on a false premise, namely that the Republicans are, in some way, actually better than Donald Trump.

      I can’t believe anyone thought it would be possible to lure Trump supporters away with a female POC candidate lol (even if she is white-passing)

        My only guess has been that she was hoping that he’d actually be blocked from the ballot on a bunch of states or die or something, but even then I don’t really get why she kept at it this long.

      Worse: she’s one of those who thinks that the average angry white dude who votes GOP will think that she’s “one of the good ones”. It’s no different than the Blacks for Trump or Log Cabin Republicans.
