Trump should pick Haley as VP, McCarthy says
The Hill ^ | November 29, 2023 | Sarah Fortinsky

Posted on 11/30/2023 1:19:01 PM PST by The_Media_never_lie

Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said in an interview Wednesday that he would advise former President Trump pick 2024 presidential candidate Nikki Haley as his running mate.

During the New York Times’s DealBook Summit, Andrew Ross Sorkin asked McCarthy who the “right person” would be for Trump to pick as his vice president among Haley, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), and 2024 GOP presidential candidates Vivek Ramaswamy and Sen. Tim Scott (S.C.).

“If I was a political person, and I was going to advise somebody, you’re going to pick the vice president that’s about addition, not subtraction. So you’re not going to pick somebody that already equates to you,” McCarthy responded.

“Now if I was picking for purely political decisions, what it looks like today is the anti-Trump vote is going to Nikki Haley,” he added.

Just plain weird.

Why, so Nikki can stab him in the back again?

The same McCarthy who has neither spoken nor lifted a finger in defense of the J6 protesters? I reject the man and his advice.

Sheer stupidity.

By his statement, seems McCarthy has determined the GOP primary is no longer needed as he has Trump at the top of the ticket.

Hey, Kev, I’ve got a bag of sand. You’re welcome to pound it in your ear.

She resigned when Trump was under fire, in order to show she was not with Trump. Purely symbolic; her term was ending shortly any way, according to Steve Bannon. A symbolic stab in the back to all MAGA by Nikki Haley, IMHO.

All those people who trashed Matt Gaetz for ousting McCarthy; Do you now see why McCarthy had to go? He was screwing MAGA at every turn, and would continue to screw MAGA & this nation.

Hey Kevin. Haley is the only potential candidate from either party that can turn the south blue.

Haley is the Neocons' backup plan, in case Trump excludes the Kushners from his second term.

She can’t be trusted. Trump needs someone strong with morals and ethics to help him fight the swamp.
