2024 Presidential race

Post by Mori Chu »

They're already campaigning, so we might as well have a thread to talk about the race.

I see that Nikki Haley has declared. I just don't see what's in it for her. She has absolutely, positively, no chance. She'll be down at 1% the whole race. Interviews like this are part of the reason why. She won't criticize Trump in the slightest; she won't even state any policy positions of hers that are different from Trump's. If you won't push back against your primary opponents, why should anyone pick you?

She's just a candidate to secure votes for trump when she drops out... I'm counting on Tulsi Gabbard to do the same thing if/when she announces her run. I don't get what happened to Tulsi... She seemed good until she latched on to Trumps teet.

Until this country figures out how to keep corporations out of our politics, we'll be the same old status quo or worse. Protect the rich, screw the middle class/poor.

Yep. Our system is broken. I don’t know how to fix it. No matter what system you have, people will corrupt it because people can’t help themselves.

‘Go Back to Your Own Country’: Ann Coulter Trashes South Carolina-Born Nikki Haley
https://www.mediaite.com/politics/go-ba ... kki-haley/
She’s an absolutely ridiculous character and the only people who say they support her are people who probably, genuinely are sexist. And, “Oh I support the girl. Good for you. You like girls!”

No, she’s utterly, completely, preposterously ridiculous. I don’t think she will get more than 2% of the vote. And you know how I hate making predictions about things like that, but she’s just a preposterous creature.

But her candidacy did remind me that I need to immigrate to India so I can demand they start taking down parts of their history. What’s with the worshipping of the cows? They’re all starving over there and they’re worshipping cows? Do you know they have a rat temple where they worship? Rats? Hey babycakes, why don’t you go back to your own country and reconsider that history?
