Jan. 12, 2021: In an interview with Politico, Haley said of Trump, “We need to acknowledge he let us down. He went down a path he shouldn’t have, and we shouldn’t have followed him, and we shouldn’t have listened to him. And we can’t let that ever happen again.”

Being a Republican
Having real convictions
Pick one, because I haven’t seen the ability to do both.
Hey now, she didn’t lie. She’s not letting it happen again.
She’s making it happen again.
I’ll say it again, a WOMAN of COLOR being a republican has to be the biggest class traitor of all time.
i agree with that but pretty sure she is trying to pretend to be white.
Normally I wouldn’t care, but when someone goes out of their way to do so it’s hard not to.
She changed her name.
For the same reason Ron DeSantis wears those weird shoes.
TIL that she’s Indian-American. I always just assumed she was white and had slightly tanned skin.
Well, just goes to show that you don’t need to be white to be a total piece of shit. (Though it sometimes helps.)

Lol I really hope this isn’t some revelation to you.
No, definitely not. I’ve always known that shit comes in all colours.

Did you forget about Ajit Pai?
He is a good example that pieces of shit come in all different colors and shapes.
Now there’s a piece of shit I haven’t heard about in a while.
There’s a number of rightwing indian Americans in the US and it honestly gives me secondhand embarrassment as a fellow brown person.
Judging by Modi’s electoral success there are a lot of rightwing Indians in India as well. Just goes to show that conservatism can take many forms and doesn’t have to adhere to any (specific) racial bounds.
Either way, I feel for you.
That’s because racism, religion, etc. are tools conservatives use to get rubes to vote against their economic interests. For the people in power, it’s only about power and money. They couldn’t give two fucks about culture wars, abortion, immigration, or anything else outside of riling up and distracting poor people so they fight each other and not them. Some tools work best in the US and different tools are needed in India. You just need the right tool for the job.
Preach on. It’s all about messing up the class consciousness of the working class, using whatever tool is right for the job.
The caste system is still a thing in India. Isn’t it just slavery with a different name?
What about Log Cabin Republicans?
What’s that?
Those are the gay Republicans. IIRC during the last midterms they got refused entry to CPAC for being gay.
Oh wow I didn’t know that … I guess only thing worse would be a gay, colored woman, Republican.
Gay colored muslim trans woman.
Haha true! Can we go deeper?
Accomplished, educated, special needs.
I’ll be honest, I fell for it. I thought I had my naivete under control, but man she was convincing to me.
I really didn’t think she would endorse him. Didn’t think she’d endorse Biden either, let’s not be ridiculous. But still. I’m embarrassed that I’m disappointed in her.
We hope for people to be better, don’t we.
What a spineless cunt.
For her sake, I hope she negotiated a cabinet position before jumping back on the trump train.
I’m wondering how much did it cost to change her opinion. When she suspended her campaign she had such a beautiful speech about holding values and doing what’s right.
Edit: this is a reminder that all Republicans are corrupted to the core and vote for any is not much better than voting for trump. She didn’t have to endorse Biden, but kissing up to trump makes her pathetic especially after her speech. A good president supposed to have some kind of principals.
At times you don’t have to pay Republican whores much.
(and before anyone cites me as being misogynist, Haley isn’t half the two-bit whore that Graham or McConnell are)
Also Barr.
Spineless, utterly fucking Spineless.
traitors usually are
They all fall in line behind Don Poorleone.
Don Poorleone.
I like. 😁
Well there goes my assumption about her strategy. I thought she was positioning herself as the person who would not kiss the ring if Trump should lose, as the “obvious” choice to lead the party that feels they need to throw trumpism under the bus.
Now, it seems pointless, she had both appeared too anti Trump and also ultimately just another Trump adherent. Seems to be a good way to alienate both sides of the Trump phenomenon.
Because of course she will. Republicans are vampires.
To quote 21 Savage on his song “Running”:
“Pussy. Pussy! Pussy!”
What a complete and total coward. She did do one good though – she showed that a sizable number of Republicans aren’t happy with Trump, and could be up for grabs in November or just might not vote at all.
Most Republicans who oppose Trump are cowards.
They will defend Trump, vote for him, and be happy about it.
That’s one thing I like about Trump: the contempt he has for the GOP party.
Nikki Haley is very much like Donald Trump: She only does anything because she thinks it will benefit herself.
She’ll risk trashing American democracy if it means she has a shot at being the next president to do it some more.
Republicans almost never fail to fall in line for their party. This is probably why the party is so politically effective. I wonder if it has something to do with their worldview and belief in hierarchy. Or, maybe they just don’t want to be exiled and unable to continue their grifts.
Typical republican traitor.
Spineless bitch. Just like the rest of them.
