Look out here it comes. E-mail from Nikki today looking for money. I remember some of you fellas down in SC were not too happy with her. What gives? -----------------------------Ray
Comments
I am not from SC but if I remember correctly she came out with some industrial stupid anti-gun proposals a few years back. those statements by her has left me with no choice but to ignore her.
I'm not from SC either, but I was under the impression she was pro gun. Perhaps some of our forum members could chime in and clear it up for me.
If in fact she isn't anti-gun I think she would make a decent V.P. running mate for DeSantis. She has both experience as governor and foreign policy experience as U.N. ambassador. She also checks a few boxes for the swing voters who care about those things like being a female and a minority. Certainly would be an order of magnitude improvement over cackling Kammie. Bob
Moderators, thanks for the move. Us old timers are going to make mistakes.
Its true Nikki has some experience and is smart and ambitious. Maybe too ambitious if that is possible. I think maybe she made some enemies ordering down the SC battle flag.
Been thinking about Kristi Noem of SD as a running mate for DeSantis. --------Ray
If my memory is correct, after the Charleston shooting she stood firmly for the 2A and refused to support any new gun laws; this was despite extreme pressure from DEMOCRATs and hate filled national media. She is an admitted CC holder and supporter.
I believe she supports the 2a, however know little of her on other issues such as taxes, border, and energy,
Quite by accident was flipping channels and landed on Nikki's speech tonight. She is a shaker/mover and appears to be a true Optimists. I was impressed. --------------Ray
The Democrats are very happy she's running because she will be pulling votes away from Trump.. get ready for another Democrat President...
It's true, she may be a good President.
Then, again, she may be the Anticrist.
Voted for Trump twice. Fought in the trenches against the NY Safe (unsafe) Act of 2013. Trump was there but I want to move on now. Too soon to make up my mind. Nikki just might be able to pull it off. She is tired of Status Quo in DC. I think we are all tired of Status Quo.
The folks in Europe loved Obummer. Maybe he and his ilk are pulling the strings now. Maybe he is the Anticrist? I tell you making the right choice is not easy but I will vote come Hell or High Water. -------------------------------------Ray
Past my sleep time. I am sure we must be keeping Joe out in Montana awake. Good night all. --------------------------------Ray
From all the panic I saw yesterday from the dems, I think they see her as a real threat. Like Ray, I voted for Trump twice but I hope he doesn't let his ego force him to split the republican party and thus the votes. He did a pretty good job as POTUS but his time has passed and he isn't electable, so he should throw what support he has behind a viable candidate.
I wish the voters would look at the candidates like it was a job interview and base their choice on qualifications instead of making it a popularity contest. In spite of all the stolen election theories, geriatric Joe got elected only because he seemed likable to a lot of voters, unlike trump who appeared to be brash and egotistical. Qualifications didn't enter into the equation. Bob
What Bob said.
I don't think there's been a truly fair and free election since the advent of computerized voting. That was made abundantly clear with demonstrations showing how easy it was to manipulate the counts via the software going all the way back to the 2000 election. The 2020 election was worse with all the drop boxes, ballot harvesting, mail in voting and so on all thanks to the manufactured covid crap.
Nikki is a wishy washy swamp dweller who couldn't win one single electoral vote, nor should she.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
Yepp..
Mr. P, Politics is not my Forte. Can you tell us more about Nikki, the swamp dweller. ---------Ray
It looks like the Republican party voters have became just like the Democrats.. they would vote for a glass of water if it had an R on it..
I agree with what you said except that with inflation at 40 year highs and we could not flip more seats in the mid terms I have to admit I am not optimistic that with the current younger voters that we can elect a Republican.
They all claim to be tired of the status quo, they just never seem to do anything about it.
Screw the diversity.
Put the most qualified person for the job in the position.
I don't think it matters anymore, the damage is done, and I fear it's fatal. They all say it's the most important election of our lifetime, they all say they're tired of the status quo, they all claim to be the one who'll get the job done and to date only Trump made an attempt and look at the resistance he faced.
wifetrained, can't argue with your logic. All, please don't give up. ------------------Ray
She quickly jumped on the nonsensical bandwagon to remove the Confederate flag from displays. She's also fine with men using women's restrooms, as just two examples.

Nikki Haley is playing the game I would call it that 99% of politicians play. She says she will do this and that, but gives no plan as to how she will do it. Where as Trump said I’ll fix the boarder, but told people how he would do it, we’ll build a wall!! He not only just said, “ I’ll bring jobs back home” , but told how he would do it, CUT corporate tax, and he did it. I could go on about how he delivered on cutting trade deficits.
I’m looking for someone that has a plan and will tell us how it will work, and is willing to walk away from a deal with foreign countries.
My prediction, Haley won’t find the money to stay in, and if Trump stays in, he’ll hint at having maybe having Haley as his VP. Long way off until the primaries.
I don't want to give up, but I honestly see no way out of the hole the politicians have dug. The debt issues alone are going to sink the ship. So, I don't see how another career politician dancing on the fringes is going to do or change anything.

Exactly...AMEN...
Ok, did a little research. Nikki ordered the flag down but did not have a problem with it flying on your private property. Interesting to note that DJT agreed about Statehouse flag coming down but was really pissed about NASCAR taking away the Flag. Note: am not endorsing anyone just what research tells me. ------------------------Ray
It would take someone who really knows how to handle money and not worry about padding their own bank account.. someone who can't be bought and puts America first could maybe.. maybe save this country... wonder who that is..??
The Lord
Sorry.. but I think he has given up on us... look around...may your eyes be opened..the lord helps those who helps themselves...and we ain't doing it...
HE is sifting out the hearts of men before HIS judgment seat, be swift my soul to answer HIM....
The only thing I can tell you all is we ARE in the End Times and I don't know what is going to happened. HE can't patch an old garment.
Also one more thing, we have an eagles nest not that far from us and the female Bald Eagle sits in our eucalyptus trees and she seems to give a message loud and clear with her presence as if she was a spokesman for Almighty God: "Stand Still and See the Salvation of the Lord."

She's doing what politicians do every election cycle. She's saying the things she knows people want to hear but she never says the things they absolutely need to hear. She claims to want to do things without stating even a single hint as to how she'll accomplish anything. Typical political pablum, nothing more.
Agreed...more coming true every day...
Mrs. Haley is untested to me will have to study some of her past but doesn't on the outset look to bad.
What I can say, call me whatever, Trump WILL NOT win 2024 if he stays in. If he doesn't win the Republican nomination if I remember in the past would run as an Independent thus guaranteeing a Dem. win. The deck is WAY to heavily stacked against Trump is so many ways that IMO, not possible for him to ever win again. YMMV.
If he doesn't get the Nomination.. it's a guaranteed Democrat win.. because half the Trump voters will not vote for anyone else but him.. they will just stay home and not worry about it.. they have given up on this country for the most part and if you take away the last hope they have.. don't expect them to vote for the same old song and dance they have voted for for years that didn't change a Damn Thing...
If he doesn't get the nomination I fear what will happen to America the Beautiful. I don't really know if the others have a chance, even Ron DeSantis.

That would be terribly shortsighted by the butt hurt Trump voters. That kind of "take my ball and go home if I don't get my way" thinking will doom us sooner than later. If we get a slate like DeSantis/Haley I would hope they swallow their pride and get out and vote. If they can't see what has happened these last two years and that doesn't motivate them to vote, then I guess they will do us all a favor and shut up about the dem disaster that 4 more years will bring. If they won't be a part of the solution, then they are part of the problem. Bob
BobJudy, No way I could have said it better. Spot on. -------------------Ray
Think whatever you want to think...but it's the truth... that's where we are... get over it.. get under it or get around it..but at the end of the day..it is what it is... wait and see for yourself...
Exactly...the party voters will vote for anyone with a R beside their name.. hopeing for change that will never come.. what amazes me is how fast they will put Party above their Country.. just like the Democrats...
