The former South Carolina governor still trails the ex-president, but has made strides in polling ahead of the New Hampshire primary

On the one hand, if Nikki Haley does manage to dethrone Trump and get the republican nomination the US will be in a better place. (I don’t think she is capable of cultivating a cult-like mentality like Trump so she won’t be a dictator.)
On the other hand, I can foresee a scenario where she is a very difficult opponent for Biden to overcome and actually win the White House. That would pretty much guarantee Project 2025 happening.

Would be interesting to see the first female US president be a republican.
Only Nixon could go to China…
In the UK, the first Jewish, first (and second and third) woman, and first Asian prime minister were all Tories.

@CoffeeAddict @theinspectorst would the MAGAs actually work with her or would they treat her with the same love as they did McCarthy?

If Trump is out of the picture, then yes because she will be their best option.
The problem with that though is I don’t see Trump going quietly into the night. He would need to completely humiliate himself in front of his supporters for them to abandon him. How that could happen I have no idea…

Lol I believe this poll. Anyone got a cheap bridge?
