Nikki Haley announces

[Doctor Phibes]

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.

@Doctor-Phibes

Indeed, sometimes referred to as slightly askewed occasionalism.

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.

[Jolly]

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

[Mik]

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

[Copper]

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

Alec Baldwin is probably a bit tied up at the moment.

Yeah, he suffers from being Trump.

@Catseye3

Probably the only consistency in his otherwise occasional character.

[George K]

Saw a clip in which she says, "We'll have mandatory term limits for congress."

Um... (former) Governor Haley, that's a constitutional thing. Might wanna look that up.

"We'll have mandatory cognitive tests..."

LOLGF

If you want to be taken seriously, be serious.

I don't necessarily disagree, but I'm trying to be practical.

[Mik]

Neither of those things can be delivered by the executive branch.

Although I have no issue with the test. I think we should have voter literacy tests. If you haven’t at least a rudimentary understanding of who and what you are voting for you don’t deserve to vote.

[George K]

Trump's niece opines.

[jon-nyc]

Speaks to the power of genes.

[Mik]

She’s a class act, that Mary Trump.

Wanna know what one?

I am OK with that as long as I get to decide what questions to ask in such tests and what the correct answers are for those questions.

[Mik]

@Axtremus

Have at it.

When the time comes, ask me. I have given this thought.

[George K]

"Politico's" gotta politico....

She never explained why?

Perhaps you guys didn't do, you know, "journalism" and ask?

Someone tweeted: "Haley is Punjabi. So she's of the Indo-Aryan race and, therefore, Caucasian."
