Haley is an excellent choice too....
Maybe she will be the one to break that glass ceiling Hillary failed to do.

Republicans have a wide choice of worthy candidates to choose from.
Democrats have none.

LurkerMom: Maybe she will be the one to break that glass ceiling Hillary failed to do.

Not likely.

A poll by USA TODAY and Suffolk University in October found about 10% of all self-reported Republican men are supporting Haley, compared to 6% of Republican women.

"Imagine only getting 6% of Republican women," said David Paleologos, director of the political research center at Suffolk University. "Think about that: You're the only woman in the race, you're the only woman who's viable, and you're only getting 6%..."

Puzzling indeed. Republican women...they could choose a woman, but instead go with the rapist.

As I recall, Dem women were reluctant to get behind women candidates as well. It's not unique to Reps. It's sort of odd, but women don't support women for some reason.

You never know. If the TDS sickos succeed in their desperation attempts to knock Trump
out of the running I think Haley will take the lead, if not the republicans have other worthy
candidates. Even democrats don’t want old man Biden and many will either not vote or will vote
the republican candidate.

What rapist are you referring to?
If you are thinking Trump, he was never found guilty of rape. Rapist go to jail.
Then on the other hand we have....
Snip
“Tara Reade, who claims she was sexually assaulted by President Joe Biden in 1993 and recently moved to Russia, has filed a formal complaint with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) Inspector General (IG).

Reade served as a Biden aide when he was a U.S. senator representing Delaware, drawing headlines during the his campaign April 2020 when she filed a criminal complaint with the Washington Metropolitan Police Department accusing him of pushing her against the wall in a Senate corridor and penetrating her with his fingers nearly three decades earlier.
Snip
“The accusations were strongly denied by Biden, and Reade became fearful for her safety, making a plea in May for Russian President Vladimir Putin to grant her citizenship following her move from the U.S. to Moscow. Reade still resides there and has been granted asylum in an expedited process, she told Newsweek via phone on Wednesday.”

Of course Old man Biden has the FBI looking out for him and the victim Reade has to flee America for her safety. Sad.

LurkerMom: If you are thinking Trump, he was never found guilty of rape. Rapist go to jail.

Civil courts do not send anyone to prison, not even rapists like Trump.

"The finding that Ms. Carroll failed to prove that she was 'raped' within the meaning of the New York Penal Law does not mean that she failed to prove that Mr. Trump 'raped' her as many people commonly understand the word 'rape,'" Kaplan wrote. "Indeed, as the evidence at trial recounted below makes clear, the jury found that Mr. Trump in fact did exactly that."

So, yes, Orange Jesus is a rapist.

As I recall, Stormy Daniels also described what would be considered a rape. But, as a porn star, she likely wouldn't have had much sympathy if she brought charges (or filed a civil complaint, since I suspect that statute of limitations has run out).

“Fact Check: Was Donald Trump Found Guilty of Rape?”
Snip
“While Trump was not found liable for rape, Tidmarsh said he attached "limited significance to the jury's decision not to find that rape occurred."

"The civil claim is for battery, not rape," he added. "The jury found that Donald Trump battered E. Jean Carroll. And Ms. Carroll was able to fit within the new statute of limitation even without proving rape."

So, we can establish that Trump was not found "guilty" of rape as he was not criminally charged, nor was he found liable for rape. Further, the civil claim was on a battery tort but brought forward using an extension of the statute of limitations for crimes including rape.”

https://www.newsweek.com/fact-check-was-donald-tru...

So Orange God is not a rapist, only your TDS wants it to be true.

OTOH Biden is a molester committing the worst assault attack on a woman. Biden’s accuser had to flee the Country for her safety because of threats to her life.

Complete nonsense, of course. Democrats would crawl over broken glass to vote against Trump; some republicans will too. I think Trump, if he's not been found guilty in at least one major trial or not been removed from the ballot in multiple states, will knuckle under and -- contrary to what the liar's saying now -- be forced to select Haley as his VP. Sorry Tucker.

How many more audio tapes of Trump trying to get canvassers to break the law will it take for republicans to abandon Trump, who, incidentally, is only 3 years younger than Biden and thinks there were airplanes during the Revolutionary War.

I thought one of the most absurd statements Trump ever made was that: “I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters”. So, I don't think for many Republicans that it matters what he does, they'll vote for him.

And you say we shouldn't call it a cult? Really?

He was dead serious. Only a cultist would suggest otherwise. He even explains why: his voters are steadfastly loyal. Another way of saying that is: it's a cult.

Just yesterday another audio tape was revealed of yet another attempt by Trump to overturn the 2020 presidential election, this time in Michigan, pressuring Michigan canvassing board members to change their already cast votes to overturn the state's presidential election -- telling them he'll pay for their lawyers -- and not a single republican here said, gee, that's disqualifying.

Trump lost Michigan by 150,000 votes, for crying out loud. I mean, it wasn't even close.

Here's the full video of Trump's dead serious 5th Avenue remark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTACH1eVIaA

No really, he lost, and you're in a cult.

Ya and you too commonone, Your TDS is so stupid and obvious, calling the smart posters here cultists because you think they are Trump backers. Most all will support any republican candidate, even the bum down the street if need be just to boot the dementia idiot Joe Biden and throw him to the curb where he belongs.
Even democrats want Joe idiot Biden to NOT run again.

Joe Biden has done a very good job....absolutely outstanding in some areas, and this has been documented many times by informed posters here, people who search for the facts rather than regurgitating the pap handed them by the biased sources that stroke their hands. And this is especially impressive given the dreadful conditions he inherited from his predecessor and the covid overlay.

But he doesn't have charisma in the slightest. No audio-visual appeal. And his age is a concern because of a vice-president who's a real cipher. Those are his primary drawbacks.

"Dementia idiot Joe Biden"? That's cult-talk, not reality-talk. Trump-schtick.

Trump practicing what he learned from the lawyer Roy Cohn...."One of Donald Trump’s most important mentors, one of the most reviled men in American political history...." He specialized in lying and cheating, in any skullduggery that he found helpful. He didn't pay his bills. He didn't pay his taxes. He evaded conviction 3 of the 4 times he was brought to trial, but was finally disbarred. "As a litigator, Cohn had earned a reputation as 'an intimidator and a bluffer,' attorney Arthur Liman would write, 'famous among lawyers for winning cases by delays, evasions, and lies.' He was unorganized and largely disinterested in specifics, relying less on preparation and more on his belligerence and his vast, nonpareil network of social and political connections."

https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2019/09/19...

Throw "dementia idiot Joe Biden to the curb where he belongs"? I don't think so. Most democrats don't think so. And given MAGA-world's standard practice of reversing reality, and snarkily accusing the other side of their own sins and incompetencies, we know who really deserves to be thrown to the curb, where he belongs.

Yup. Its Trump's m.o. to defuse his stupid declarations and behaviors by denying or minimizing them.


"I don't know who that is" "I never met that person".

Or by trying to minimize the significance of something he said;

"It's just locker-room talk."
