Nooooo.
Haley would have a better chance of juggling flaming chainsaws while unicycling than being Trump’s VP.
Diplomacy Trump style.
Trump continues to run rings around amateurs like Ryan, Priebus, et al GOPe RINOs.
He didn't take the bait.
They were so damned sure Trump would say something sexist or racist about Haley and he didn't give them the satisfaction.
Thanks - it’s getting scary, I nailed it with him and Carson too when I said that Trump was mentioning that Carson tried to kill his mother and was “pathological” (Carson did say both in his book)...in order to get Carson’s past into the news as it was being spiked by the media and Carson’s numbers weren’t dropping as they should have been by then (they did shortly after that).
Trump later said exactly what I said when asked why he was going after Carson in what has to be considered a rather mean way.
I’m almost at the point of keeping quiet when I suspect what Trump is up to...or he won’t be able to get away with it.
If that ever happened, there would be hell to pay and there's a good chance a bloody revolution would ensue.
“Trump said he’d still consider Haley on his list”
It costs nothing for Trump to put Haley on his VP list, but in all probability, number 517,324th on the list has little chance.
Yes, and also upredictable — a very valuable asset for a negotiator.
I agree with those who say Trump is merely doing this to diffuse the situation and perhaps hopes to win an ally later on.
Haley was between a rock and a hard place because she vested too much in the Bush family and the GOPe. That was the winning ticket in the past, but it is no longer. Perhaps when the time is right, Haley could be useful to shore up GOPes at the convention. Maybe that's what Mr. T has in mind.
You can't stump the Trump... and it's hard to outsmart him, too :- )
LOL!
“It costs nothing for Trump to put Haley on his VP list, but in all probability, number 517,324th on the list has little chance.”
Bingo. You win the “astute” prize.
Demagogues gotta demagogue.
BIG mistake if he chooses Nikki Haley.
She is all in for illegals.
Nikki Haley Merkel
I can say “yes” to Trump though I am for Cruz, but it’s a huge “no” to Haley no matter who nominates her for V.P.
He won’t, he is just posturing prior to the S.C. primary.
The day after is a different story.
You’re right; it makes one long for Spiro T. Agnew!
Haley the Hack was picked by Partial Republican Paul Ryan, and Mostly Liberal Mitch McConnel.
ANOTHER BIG REASON RYAN NEEDS PUT IN HIS PLACE BY BEING PRIMARIED. THIS JUST GOES TO SHOW YOU RYAN WILL ONLY GET WORSE.
DOES ANYONE KNOW IF RYAN HAS A PRIMARY CHALLENGE?????
0% chance. He is just being diplomatic.
Haley Barbour, possibly. Nikki Haley, no way in bell.
He picks a rino as VP he is just what conservative fear....someone who runs conservative in the primary and betrays the base later....no thanks.
Nikki Haley? No way! It’s a deal breaker for me!
