Haley has always been a transparent, transactional politician playing the field. Her designs on occupying the WH remain, only the timeline has changed. But Graham and Scott? It’s one thing to “get in line” it’s quite another to be a bootlicker to a coward and a criminal, especially after they’ve gone on record, video record (Jan7) to say the opposite. Like Vichy France, it’s not the actions of the people that will be written about, but the craven, servile and cowardly political class whom will be remembered for generations.
I forgot about Nancy Mace. It does not say much about the people in her district. As usual for me, I am absolutely confounded by who people vote for. I feel like a person who just does not know who he lives amongst any longer.
Really glad to see that so many intelligent, patiotic people are engaging with each other to save democracy. I didn't fight in Vietnam to see Corrupt, traitor MAGA trump supporters destroy America.
Thank you for your service, Larry. Among the MAGAs are baby boomers. It's shameful that they don't understand or care why they are called baby-boomers.
Predictably, Mitch McConnell just endorsed Chump, the man who hurled racist insults at his wife. Which means, among other things, power is preferable to keeping a Republic. God Help Us.
Also, one of Trumpies groupies may have done in Mitche’s sister-in-law down in Texas. Trump doesn’t have to order someone to do his revenge work. His followers know what he wants.
I worry about the tricks, the pals he has in the background but i am worrying less about trump. Biden continues to show his skill and wisdom. He has to bail on Bibi and retake that initiative. We are hearing from fascist/strongman lovers but they are a stupid minority. The economy will be good in November, trump will be thoroughly disgraced and Biden seen as the better course again. Then we can work on new fresh young democratic leadership and put the republicans out with the garbage. I have a tumour but feeling optimistic. Go Joe!
No surprises here. Haley is no patriot. Her only interest is her own ambition. No interest in democracy. For those Republicans who voted for her, take a good look. She is one of Trump’s handmaidens.
Nikki is a pathetic chameleon trying to make herself look appealing to everyone/ anyone. Well that didn't work. J
Regarding trump - just put together a mash up of his inability to even speak ONE single coherent sentence on top of his soon to be conviction in his criminal trial and that should be enough to send the fat man off to leper isle forever. Or he could just do us all a favor and take his dirt nap now
Mitch McConnell just endorsed trump. I cringe at these GOP maggots, that is exactly what they are maggots, no spine, no conscious just a bunch of disgraceful anti American puppets.
Yeah, Nikki’s tepid mini-rebellion against Trump was likely self-serving, only. An eventual blessing of Trump is likely the death knell for her political future. Those who voted for her will not forget and neither will Liz or Adam as their stars rise again once the Orange one fades away with in a jail cell or his palace in Florida (assuming he still owns it).
Nikki Haley is not a smart lady. Nikki Haley is not a woman of principle. Nikki Haley is a political shapeshifter. Like her fellow South Carolina politicians, Scott and Lindsey Graham, their principles blow with the wind. Their “position “ is determine by licking their finger and holding it up to see which direction to go.
Trump’s party is simply a Borg collective. One minuscule brain controlling everyone in the party, ask Moscow Mitch.
They are in Congress , the Senate and even the Supreme Court to serve their master. They will protect him at all costs and attack anyone who disagrees with him.
Trump was partially right, the insane, bigots and criminals are coming to destroy America. But they are not coming across the border, they are inside the house.
The only bump in the road is a frail old man that shuffles when he walks. A man that his own party doesn’t want him
to run. He gets little, if any help from his party. He’s not flashy enough for the media to follow and is lambasted by the propaganda “news” channels and internet.
Biden has done a good job but he is too boring for our ADHD society.
Appear over substance. It’s not what you say but how loud you say it matters. ITT is a sad day for democracy. It is a sad day for our children and grandchildren. Trump will destroy us all.
I hope you're wrong, Steve, and that she actually believes her rhetoric about Trump, that he's a danger and unfit to be Prez. Retaining the people who voted for her would be a big help keeping him out of the WH. But you've been in the politics biz enough you probably have learned to see around the corners. There are a few honorable Republicans who have been willing to burn their GOP careers down to the ground in hopes of returning the Party to its traditional ideology, but we sure could use a lot more.
Steve's 100% right here. Since she was appointed the UN ambassador, I've watched her temperature go up and down with Trump as his popularity went up and down. The wind is what's good for Nikki's political future and she's a weather vane.

Vichy Americans sounds right and says it all.
They don’t call SC, AL, LA, TX and the other hypocritical southern states the Confederacy of Dunces for nothing.
Graham, Scott, and the rest of the clueless members of the South Carolina delegation are the epitome of Reek from Game of Thrones.
Soon Haley will do what all good puppy dogs do; fall in line, and eventually get kicked to the curb like most rabid strays.
Stick a fork in Nikki, she’s more than done!…:)
Robert Jaffee; Add Nancy Mace to the South Carolina dung pile.
Thank you. How could I forget. And to think she and Scott are both on the shortlist for VP.
Good times…:)
I forgot about Nancy Mace. It does not say much about the people in her district. As usual for me, I am absolutely confounded by who people vote for. I feel like a person who just does not know who he lives amongst any longer.
I feel the same way. It’s utterly jaw dropping to listen to the locals.
Lindsay Graham, Tim Scott, Nikki Haley. What a trifuckus.
Such a beautiful state, such stupid people, not least Uncle Tom Scott.
She has been running for VP and she will get it, because the orangutan needs her voters.

Thank you for your optimism. Trump seems to be taking the GOP off a cliff. Best! Lisa

If only Martin.

Steve, thank you for your ongoing hard-hitting "Warnings" against MAGA cohorts, including Haley.
Yeah, Nikki’s tepid mini-rebellion against Trump was likely self-serving, only. An eventual blessing of Trump is likely the death knell for her political future. Those who voted for her will not forget and neither will Liz or Adam as their stars rise again once the Orange one fades away with in a jail cell or his palace in Florida (assuming he still owns it).
Peter, you are a dreamer.
Craven and ignoble and cowardly and unseemly desire for power. Poodles for Chump.
Be nice to think better days are ahead for our country, but not with people like these.
Just watched her concession speech. She endorsed Trump without actually saying the words. Pitiful but predictable. Princess Nikki:(

Maybe they should change their slogan from MAGA to: "Resistance is futile; we will assimilate."
