Nikki Haley announces

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.

You need to hurry up and become a citizen, so you can vote in the next Presidential election.

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.

Whenever Fox needs an expert to say the democrats are all idiots, she does a good job. Perfect.

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

@Renauda said in Nikki Haley announces:
As always, Trump makes no sense.
Nah, sometimes Trump makes sense.
But...when he doesn't make sense, he REALLY doesn't make sense.

His normally brilliant insight is slightly askew.

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 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.

I agree it's not as big, but I think he's got a solid 30%. And that can win a primary.

I don’t think it’s that strong. It surely isn’t here in deep red Warren County.

If a candidate can sound like 2016 Trump, without all the Trump baggage, they could take it away from him.
