Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley blasted the Republican National Committee on Sunday, saying it was not an honest broker in the party’s 2024 primary race.
In an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Haley, the last remaining major GOP opponent to former President Donald Trump, said the RNC was “clearly not” playing fairly.
“Do you think the RNC has been an honest broker in this case?” moderator Kristen Welker asked.
Haley replied, “I mean, clearly not.”
“If you’re gonna go in and basically tell the American people that you’re gonna go and decide who the nominee is after only two states have voted? I mean, 48 states out there?” she said. “This is a democracy. The American people want to have their say in who is going to be their nominee. We need to give them that.”
Haley noted that it takes 1,215 delegates to reach the nomination, the majority of which have yet to be allocated.
She's been a Trump bootlicker for the last few years, so changing your mind about him this late in the game when it affects you is damn near meaningless, she's shown who she is, a weak willed traitor sympathizer with no true moral center, the party of law & order my ass.
The only Republican on the debate stage during the primaries that isn't a traitor sympathizer was clearly Chris Christie, who still sucks, he's just not a traitor like his cohorts who lick Trump's taint
She needed to be attacking his ass for the past 16 months. It’s too little too late now.
That said, when you look at what’s happening in Nevada, where they’re just making up new primary and caucus rules to make her votes not count at all, this is what a rigged election actually looks like.
How about no parties. Just vote for whoever is best at your local election without any party affiliations and then let them figure shit out when they get to their seats.
Rather than voting along party lines and nothing ever getting done they will vote however they think will get them voted in again. Republicans in California have different views and priorites than Republicans in South Carolina, same as Democrats in Oregon and Democrats in New York. Get rid of the Ds and Rs and you will end up with much better and honest representation.
DeSantis voters look a lot like Trump voters. In fact, they're pretty much indistinguishable, since DeSantis was using the same talking points as Trump, only more coherently (and effectively in Florida). Haley voters look more like traditional Republicans, who are people that really don't like Trump. Right now, assuming that both Trump and Biden are the respective nominees, at least some Haley voters will move to Biden rather than voting for Trump. If you want to keep democracy going, that's a good thing. E.g., you may not agree with Biden on every thing, or most things, but you agree that he's not going do his level best to be an autocrat.
The MAGA bullshit is popular enough that Biden needs to either be able to mobilize far, far more young voters than has been done in prior years, or peel off some moderate Republicans. The latter is likely more politically feasible than the former.
Sounds an awful lot to me like the statement of a woman who is surprised that the face-eating leopard she helped to raise in the first place is now looking at her with that hungry look in his eyes because the "them" that he was supposed to be attacking in the first place is no longer enough to feed his hunger.
Mrs. Haley's formal political career began in 2004. It has taken her twenty fucking years to figure the obvious out.
I guess later is better than never?? Like Republicans, if Reince Priebus didn't already clue you into the game, I don't know what else could have convinced you.
This is exactly what Putin does in his 'elections' and it worries me. 'Opposition' that is not currently in a Siberian prison, is hand picked.
She's playing the game they all have the entire time. They want a fascist state that gets to pick the winners and losers. It's their endgame and they have shown every red flag that exists through the decades.
I don't think so. Much of Klingon culture is based upon honor and avoiding actions that bring shame. The modern day RNC appears to entirely lack both honor and ability to experience shame.
You’re getting there, Nikki. It’s taking awhile, but you’re on the right track to finally realize what a shit group of people you want for friends. If you actually care though…that’s another question.

Haley also did not say that she does not need to win her home state of South Carolina on Feb. 24 to stay in the presidential race, but she contended that she must perform better than she did in the New Hampshire primary.
Before Trump’s decisive win in the New Hampshire primary last week, RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel signaled that the party will rally behind Trump if he continues to build on his strong performance in the early caucuses and primaries.
“If President Trump comes out strong tonight, that’s a clear message being sent by our primary voters,” McDaniel said in a statement to NBC News before the New Hampshire results came last week.
