Haley still hasn't figured out the RNC has been dead for 2 decades. If she wants to win with the institution, she needs to switch parties.
Since I am nether a republican nor a haley supporter, her outcome isn't all that important to me. But her not in the race leaves you with trump as your choice. And candidates outside the "institution" (what others complain as "beltway" or "establishment" or "swamp"), you get wacko extremists like vivek or rfk jr. So if you don't support haley, and I know you don't support Biden...
That is the beauty as an American....I don't have to support any of them. You should try it. You are not beholden to your party. She was never in the race. She lost to "none of the above". Bukele and Milei are not part of the establishment. I dont consider either of them as extremist, however I am sure anyone inside the establishment would view them as such.

So if you don't support haley, and I know you don't support Biden... So, you are supporting the trump-admiring leader of Argentina and self-described "coolest dictator" leader of San Salvador to become President of the United States. Sure, that's not at extremist position...
Not sure the "left" likes her all that much. You position on choice is likely a non-starter. I think you confusing "loves" with "compared with trump". Heck, I'd vote for a smelly rescue dog before trump. Maybe before haley too. But as far as I know, haley hasn't incited an insurrection, nor raped anyone, nor committed fraud, nor mishandled confidential papers then lied about it. Nor tried to overturn an election. So all those makes her better than trump. But I am on record as saying I have about as much chance of haley becoming the republican nominee for president. And I am not running. Instead republicans will nominate the guy that committed fraud, raped a woman, incited an insurrection, tried to overturn an election, and hid confidential government papers in his bathroom and some just now disclosed series of closets. And it is amazing how much republicans love that guy. "Should tell you everything."
If you could only listen to yourself. I am not voting on Biden strictly on principle. Im not voting for Trump for all the obvious reasons all w/out becoming infected with DTS. I would happily vote Nikki Haley on either partys ticket. The populist vote in this country is much stronger than it usually is and they have selected Trump as their leader. There is no fantasy in heaven that will lead to Nikki Haley as the Republican candidate... w/out legally or physically removing Trump from politics. If the Democrats would pull their halfviti from the nomination and put Haley in his place and fully support her like nice little drones, she would beat Trump very easily.
If I could listen to myself? Explain what I wrote was incorrect. Is my description of trump incorrect? And nikki haley... in what fantasy world would haley consider herself as a Democrat. Which positions of hers would be attractive to Democrat voters? So why would Democrats replace a candidate with her of all people? Heck, you call President a "halfviti" (whatever that is). Yet even if Democrats ran a different Democrats (Harris, Newson, Whitmer, Beshear, Cooper, heck... roll through any list) and you'd be making the same criticisms. So sorry if I find your "Democrats should run haley" suggestion bizarre. This is your effort to blame trump on Democrats. You won't take responsibility for him. Republicans are supporting the fraud/insurrectionist/rapist in the primaries. Blame them. And blame yourself for voting for him.
Haley doesn't have a single serious policy proposal that aligns with the Democratic party. Weird criticism.
Right because democrats agree that there should be a national abortion ban, agree there should be more tax cuts for the wealthy or that Trump should be pardoned. This is the type of reflexive cynicism that views both parties as the same that is as damaging as partisanship.
They think that since they've fallen in line behind a game show host who was a walking punchline for 20 years before he ran for office, everyone else is just as gullible.
It's seems the obvious was missed on you. I'm simply saying Haley, like most politicians, would preach whatever it takes to win. She would lock step with the DNC. Both parties are they same. They put candidates up that appeal to the lowest informed of their voter base. And the self proclaimed intelligent and educated voter base lock step in like good little bots and let this behavior continue within the party they defend so fiercely. Biden as a candidate is a complete joke at this point. Same with Trump.
