…Haley might be able to consolidate 30 or 35 percent of the party, but the path to actually winning would be closed. Which could make her ascent at DeSantis’s expense another study in the political futility of anti-Trump conservatism, its inability to wrestle successfully with the populism that might make Trump the nominee and the president again.

    Haley’s campaign is already over. Trump is garaunteed to lose. Combine the 2 of them together and there is a 0% chance of winner.

    If somehow Trump became the nominee it will be a Democrat victory. If it’s someone else as nominee, the general public may vote for them, but it will be a lose for both Haley and Trump.

    Trump is the new swamp and Haley is the establishment candiate to protect the corporation sales and help stock holders. Vivek is fake, he is a clown that will contradict himself and lie for attention and popularity.

      I have an extremely hard time believing her campaign is already over, especially when she just got the backing of the Koch brothers.

      Plus, I’m not sure why if Trump is the nominee, then Biden is definitely going to win. And I’m even less sure why if Haley is the nominee, then Biden still wins. Haley and Biden are going to be competing for the same audience, and Haley has the advantage given the extremely undeserved Republican brand for fiscal responsibility.

        I think Haley has a shot going against Biden.

        According to the polls, Trump has a good chance of beating Biden. I think what many people don’t understand, myself included, is every time the Democrats attack Trump, he goes up in the polls.

        All the lawsuits and criminal charges have done nothing except increase his support.

      Trump is polling really well. I am not sure why you think that guarantees he would lose.
