She has determined that the future is Trumpism. I believe she is wrong. Haley will find herself on the wrong side of history. That is a good thing because she is an unprincipled hack and should never become president.

Anyone who doesn't throw red meat to the deplorables has no chance at the nomination.

When they aren't, they are upset there was no justification other than for personal political gains. Then claimed Democrats love terrorist, but the facts are trump and the republican party are promoting putins false propaganda knowing its false, allowing Kim Jung Un to test and build up their nuclear stockpile , along with others now in Iran. Who's supporting terrorism and terrorist putin , kim, the prince, and erdogan? trump and the republican party. Democrats ought to use this for the elections now pointing out who they support, and why they do. Follow the money.

… where the Republicans are at right now.

Their response to supporting a corrupt, lying, power-abusing, Putin bitch is to call us “the Democrat party”.

When that’s your only response to having put a Russian asset in the White House, it’s pretty obvious you’ve got nuthin’ else to offer in your own defence.

That someone posted a pic of her family taken when she was about 8 or 9 I’m guessing. The MAGATs would hate it coz her dad is wearing a turban and as much as she has maybe attempted to downplay her heritage to dump world, that photo shows otherwise. It’s a nice family photo but folks that have an issue with “brown people” and “foreigners” won’t be appreciative of it.

13. The overt lies and vilification of any opposition . . .
Fri Jan 10, 2020, 09:29 AM
Jan 2020

it is right out of the Nazi playbook. There, I've said it. And it's true.

By supporting Trump, blindly and witlessly, Haley, you:

--praise the separation of children from their parents, their incarceration, their un-tracked bureaucratic disposal.
--agree with him that not all of the nazi morons in Charlottesville were bad people, that, in fact, some were "fine people" as your Leader called them.
--positively drool over the prospect of your Leader getting full control over the American military to do with whatever he will.
--love the roll back of protective environmental regulations,
-- and stand with the racists who have passed laws limiting and in some cases eliminating the voting rights of people of color

If you support the man, Nikki, you support everything -- everything -- he stands and waddles for. You become his devoted, foot kissing acolyte and history will remember.

15. The greatest threat to our freedoms in not from without, but within.

Many have been warning that the Republican Party has degenerated into a fascist organization without a shred of morals. It is morally and ethically bankrupt and will not hesitate to condescend to the most vile and disgusting behavior. The parallels between the Republican Party and the Nazis catastrophic venture is truly frightening. The lies that their representatives expound on a hourly basis is truly astounding as they follow the lead of the one of the most proficient liars since the downfall of Beelzebub. They have truly sold their souls and are willing to go to any extent to deceive the citizens many of whom are being drawn in their web or lies and intrigue. The situation is beyond bizarre where thousands of deluded people are cheering their own downfall like demented simpletons. This reminds me of a Jewish proverb in which a boat passenger was drilling a hole under his seat and when confronted he said it was his right since he paid for the seat, to which they admonished him that his folly would drown them all. The question is are going to standby and allow these fools to drown us all?

She's against America by ignoring the Constitution bypassing Congress and suggesting a president when it's a republican , can start a conflict or war without a coequal branch approving it. She's also ignoring the facts trump and republicans are promoting terrorist propaganda knowing its false is ok, or ignoring terrorist murdering people like Putin, the prince , and Kim do is acceptable by doing nothing to them. This will come back to haunt her .

both in terms of lying/obfuscating and the terminology.
