Nikki Haley announces

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.

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.

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

Okay… Yours was better….

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.

Yeah, he suffers from being Trump.

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.

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.

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.

Trump's niece opines.
Nikki is a nickname in punjabi meaning "small one". Common for some people's nickname to stick with them throughout their life.
Mary comes out looking like an idiot to Indians, but might resonate with people who think Nimrata can't be her "authentic self" and also be Republican.

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

"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."

LOL. Don Lemon:
Lemon: This whole talk about age makes me uncomfortable. I think it’s the wrong road to go down. She says people, you know, politicians are suddenly not in their prime. Nikki Haley isn’t in her prime. Sorry, When a woman is in their prime in 20s and 30s and maybe 40s…
Link to videoDon’t shoot the messenger, I’m just saying what the facts are. Google it. Everybody at home, when is a woman in her prime? It says 20s, 30s and 40s. I’m just saying Nikki Haley should careful about saying that politics are not in their prime, and they need to be in their prime when they serve. She would not be in her prime according to Google or whatever it is.
OK then, I suppose:
