    Haley isn’t getting elected. She has virtually no path towards the GOP nomination. If she did, MAGATs aren’t going to vote for her unless he was on the ballot, and then if she did put him on the ballot, she’ll lose the moderate votes.

    Trump has a chance to cause chaos by losing another general election. He could also do even more damage by winning another general election. Haley, if she somehow won the primary and general, would be so much less destructive.

    So yeah, voting for Haley in the primary is the fucking move and it’s why I didn’t vote for Biden in the SC primary.

        Look, no Democrat is saying she’d be great or even close to being better than Biden.

        But she’d certainly be better than Trump. And if she can split the Republican votes in the general election, even better.

            When Haley tries to overthrow the government, I’ll say she’s as bad as Trump. Until that happens, I say Trump is worse.

          No, she wouldn’t be. Trump at least has value from an accelerationist POV, Haley’s going to do all things Trump would but as less of a publicly shitposting moron.

              Some of these clowns have finally convinced themselves that sitting home and complaining is now direct political action and will get them the things they want, it’s wild.

            I think Biden is the accelerationist candidate. Why? Bc if Trump wins, the system will just roll over and enforce his whims. The Dems will just accept it, and there likely will never be any more democracy. It will be much harder to force change. However, if Biden wins, the right will not accept it. Either the republicans will attempt to disrupt the election results, or the right will escalate domestic terrorism, etc.

        I don’t care if she sucks. She won’t beat Trump in the end. The longer she stays in the race, the more angry he’s gonna get at his own party

          People said the exact same shit about trump in 2016 and tried to do the same meta gaming shit you’re trying to do, and look how that turned out. Ffs just admit you don’t know what the fuck you’re doing and vote like a normal person instead of big braining us into fascism again

      She wins the primary if SCOTUS rules that Trump is an insurrectionist, and she polls well against Biden precisely because she appeals to “enlightened centrists.”

      The question is not whether Trump should be barred as insurrectionist. The question is what candidate the leash holders of certain Justices want.

        I have a very hard time seeing Trump supporters coming around to vote for her when he’s painted her as a part of the deep state

      Jesus Christ when are you gonna learn that these stupid 4d chess moves don’t fucking work? You’re gonna be literally supporting republicans, and when that gets a republican in office again you’re probably gonna blame 3rd party voters and leftists and young people and Russia and literally everyone other than yourself for republicans winning. This shit backfires all the time, don’t fuck us all over with this “big brain” bullshit again please
