To use political jargon, Nikki Haley—who has lost primary contests in Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada, and her home state of South Carolina—does not have a snow ball’s chance in hell of winning the GOP nomination for president. Still, she is apparently intent on not going down without a fight, and to that end, the former governor has a message for voters: Anyone who votes for Donald Trump has a death wish for America.

      My state has open primaries and I voted for Haley. Not because I support her but because giving her a boost in the primaries will be a good foil for Trump.

      And, if in the small chance she gets the nom, she might actually be easier to beat than Trump. Not holding my breath on that one though.

      A vote for a repub is more dead Ukrainian soldiers and it pisses me off to no end. Reagan is rolling in his grave how his party is now the russian puppet party.

        Well, with all the crimes he committed against the American economy, I would not put Reagan on a high pedestal, but yes, at least he had the balls to counter the Russians.

          You could say his economic crimes put us on the inevitable path to where the political system is today. Decrease in labor power vs capital, allowing capital accumulation and concentration into few hands, inevitably flowing into the political system to maintain that status quo. And here we are.

        Well. Then it is high time you wake up and have a look at how Republicans have massacred the US at least since Nixon.
