It's so strange how the press covers Nikki Haley like she actually matters.
I’m so glad young people no longer watch cable news. I hope it continues
I'm not sure that getting your "news" from random TikToks is any better...
They're not random, they're likely carefully curated (by algorithm) to maximize profits and promote the interests of it's owner, who is that again?
It definitely is, seeing as TikTok viewers are more likely to oppose the genocide in Gaza than any other news viewers.
Before you downvote this comment, look at the data about how this genocide is covered. Mainstream news is providing misinformation about Gaza at this point: see https://www.columnblog.com/p/massacred-vs-left-to-die-documenting
Citations Needed had an excellent episode about this point specifically.
'Israeli children are killed by brutal terrorists' vs. 'people under the age of 18 in Gaza die in blasts'
The article I linked is by Adam Johnson. I think they discuss it in the episode.
Lol
If Trump is unable to be president because of Court cases that should rule that way (will they? Flip a coin...), then Haley has a pretty good chance of beating DeSantis. So yeah, she does matter.
I'd rather her over the others because she's not so MAGA and far-right.
I'll be voting for Biden either way.
None of those cases is going to be decided by November, or even January. He may have a 'convicted pending appeal' or two, but those appeals will be postponed until 2028. Hell, even if he loses, I doubt he'll exhaust his appeals before 2030.
I’d agree with this if you were saying there’s a clear possibility of this, rather than treating it as a foregone conclusion. Because we don’t know for sure how it’s going to go at this point. But yeah, I don’t feel comfortable counting on these court cases taking Trump out of the equation at all.
Trump is well on track to croak before he has to seriously answer for anything.
People are complaining about not having better options than two old guys, but are also complaining that their rivals are getting coverage during the primary season.
Pretty tone deaf take here.
She’s been backed by a few mega donors who are able to push media coverage if I recall correctly
She is easy on the eyes and can generally make coherent points. That makes her a very small minority within the GOP.
Pick one.
You understand what she is trying to communicate, it's s shitty hateful lying message but you understand it. Compare it to the rambling insanity we have all had to deal with since 2016.
By the way to be clear I am not going to vote for her.
24 hours a day of drama to fill. Gotta cover something
This comment has not aged well.
I've been waiting for this day, to throw off all my shackles and be my most petty of selves.
*ahem*
lol. lmao, even.
It's not even New Hampshire yet and the Republican primary race is effectively down to only two people and she's the option that's not Trump.
She'll probably win every state that has an open primary at very least.
