Nikki Haley-Larry Hogan in 2024

Anonymous
It is delusional for people to think that a "traditional" conservative who isn't Trumpy has a place in the GOP.

It can’t possibly be news to you that the Republican base hates Mitt Romney, can it?

I particularly love Hannity’s quote here:

Lou Dobbs opined that “Romney is going to be associated with Judas, Brutus, [and] Benedict Arnold forever.” Tucker Carlson was so upset that he wouldn’t even say the senator’s name, explaining to viewers that the editorial decision was made “on the grounds that silly moral preening should not be rewarded with the publicity it is designed to garner.” Sean Hannity, adopting the Don Jr. “he’s just jealous!” take and concluded that “losing a presidential election ruins people.” On his radio show, Sebastian Gorka dubbed Romney a “skirt-wearing little pajama boy Millennial snowflake.” But it was Laura Ingraham who seemed to come closest to spontaneously combusting, calling Romney “the ultimate selfish, preening, self-centered politician,” calling for him to resign, and then, unintentionally hilariously, threatening to move to Utah to defeat him in 2024:

Yep. You can’t win an election when all of Fox News hates you and the rest of the press treats you like they did in 2012 when you run against a Dem nominee. Romney is not going to get a fare shake from MSNBC and CNN when he is trying to oust Biden. He was only getting good press on these channels because he was anti-Trump.

Well, to be fair, Ronmney has done less than the bare minimum to call out the crazy with Trumpism, much less (and ironically given he is from an all-mail-in-ballot state) anything related to fair election laws. He is a far right wing, anti-woman, anti-choice religious zealot.

+1. LOL at this idea.

And please stop it with "Nikki Haley is a woman of color." Nikki Haley is to Indians as Ted Cruz is to Hispanics.

I see. You give up any claim on a race or cultural heritage when you start thinking for yourself and decide you’re not a Democrat.

When you decide to call yourself Ted instead of Raphael or Nikki instead of Nimrata, you are giving up your cultural or racial identity. They gave up their own claim.

The only way Trump isn’t on the R ticket in 2024 is if he does beforehand.

Far more interesting is the D ticket.

I guess this is what we get when if you don’t support the Democratic presidential candidate, then “you ain’t black”.

Quite a world we live in when Ted Cruz is no longer Hispanic but Irishman “Beto” O’Rourke somehow is.

What does this have to do with Beto? That is some A grade deflection.

Not PP but figuring he/she meant “dies” not “does.”

I voted for Biden. I now think he’s insane for trying to tax rich people and want to vote Republican. I don’t want a batsht Trump type. Wtf. This is how republicans are polling? Fking idiots. Can we get someone sane and moderate? Someone who wants low taxes but is socially liberal? Ugh. Idiots.


NP. Trump wouldn’t be my choice but you can’t say that Biden is always more liberal than republicans. There’s nothing “liberal” about literally forcing people to get something injected into their body. We may agree with it now but is this really the precedent you want to set? I don’t. What about if it’s something you disagree with next time? Remember that Democrats are going to lose big in the midterms. I’d rather keep our liberties, thanks.


What? You just wasted perfectly good space on the internet with your anti-vaxx post. No one intelligent takes you seriously. Honestly, ever wonder why you people are getting super sick? Take the fking vaccine you idiot.

And, it's not setting a precedent, it's following one.

Can you even believe the bigotry of these liberals? Wow. Of course Haley is Indian-American. Of course Cruz is Latino-American. JFC.

And all the non college educated white men and the Hispanics and black men who are coming over to the Republican Party recently will stay home. Rockefeller Republicans are a non-starter these days.

DeSantis seems to have some appeal to classic Republicans but also does not alienate Trump’s base like Romney and Haley. He would have a much better chance of winning a primary than Romney.


I think you Republicans are going to like him a lot less once you hear him talk. You like him in theory. He is really a whiny turd in reality. One who is all about alienating moderates, by the way, so good luck during the general.

He only won Florida by about 50k votes.
