    No surprise here.

    https://www.axios.com/2023/02/14/nikki-haley-2024-presidential-campaign-video

    Former Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley will announce her presidential campaign Wednesday morning, becoming the first challenger to former President Trump in the Republican presidential primary.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        The more people in the primary, the greater the likelihood that they winnow each other out, and Trump will be the only one with a base big enough.

        That would be a bad thing.

        So far only she and Trump have announced, but Pompeo is making noises, and DeSantis...

        By the way, DeSantis's middle name is "Dion." Better than "Robinette," I suppose.

            I don't see her going anywhere. DeSantis has the best shot, but I don't know how he could cleave enough of Trump's base to beat him in the primaries.

            On the other side, I don't have a clue who they will run. I do believe it ain't gonna be Biden.

                I'm hoping for George Santos to announce.

                Of course, he may be ineligible, as he's already been President of two other countries.

                I was only joking

                      I have long thought she might be a VP nominee, but never seems to happen. Can't see her getting the Presidential nomination at all... she doesn't really move her teeth when she talks and her energy level barely gets to a 2 out of 10.

                            The former president again took a mild shot at Haley in an interview with Hugh Hewitt earlier this month, saying, "Nikki suffers from something that's a very tough thing to suffer from: She's overly ambitious."

                            Trump said someone's overly ambitious.

                            OK

                                      I think it's fair to say that Trump suffers from something that's a very tough thing to suffer from, too. Tough for everybody else, at least.

                                          I don't see her going anywhere. DeSantis has the best shot, but I don't know how he could cleave enough of Trump's base to beat him in the primaries.

                                          On the other side, I don't have a clue who they will run. I do believe it ain't gonna be Biden.

                                          I don’t think it gets that far. I think you’ll see something where they rally around the best possible non-trump candidate. There will likely be an intervention similar to the one the Dems pulled to kill off Bernie’s candidacy, only earlier in the process.

                                          Ultimately, though, Trump’s base is nowhere near as big as it once was.
