Trump campaign considering Nikki Haley as running mate, Axios reports
Reuters ^ | 05/11/2024 | Staff

Posted on 05/11/2024 6:47:28 AM PDT by thegagline

Former Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley is under active consideration by Donald Trump's campaign to be his running mate, news site Axios reported on Saturday, citing unidentified people familiar with the situation.

Trump could pick Haley if he were convinced she could help him win the presidency, avoid a potential prison sentence and cover tens of millions in legal bills if he loses, the report said.

Haley, the former South Carolina governor and a former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, ended her log-shot challenge to Republican presidential frontrunner Trump in March.

She said it was likely Trump - who repeatedly belittled her candidacy - would be the Republican nominee but did not endorse him.

I strongly believe Trump will choose a woman as his running mate - thought it might be Kristi Noem - but now she is off the table (as she should be).

Hope Nikki Haley is off the table as well.

The media has a bad habit of doing this during election season, throwing up any number of unacceptable names while pretending they are VP candidates.

They are not reporting the news, they are trying to create news by sucking it out of their thumbs.

Highly doubt it but I’ll go on record as saying that whomever Trump chooses is fine by me. If I don’t like the person or think they are swamp it’s also fine by me. The VP doesn’t have to be in the knoe about anything. That is totally up to the President. The VP is also not automatically the 2028 nominee. If Trump and his campaign feel that Haley is the way to win then Go Birdbrain go. I still highly doubt it.

What is the lesser of two evils? Another Biden puppet win, or Trump having to pick Haley to win? She got 20% of the vote from a lot of women and probably a few democrats. Do we want Trump to win or not? The other choice (Jobama) is pure evil and not voting is not an option.

I understand that impulse, but remember, the Deep State is so blackhearted, they would consider an assassination.... so the Veep really does matter.

Remember how much they hated Reagan? They had an ultimate Deep Stater, and former CIA boss, George HW Bush as his Veep.

And... what a coinky-dink! John Hinkley, the mentally-ill son of the Hinkley family (who were tight with GHW Bush and family) suddenly pops up and actually hits President Reagan with a .22 round!

Agreed. Never to rise from there.

Nikki killed not only a VP nomination, but her entire political career. Attacking Trump, her boss, was a political no-no. She's done in politics and probably in government. Her only choice left is going on CNN or MSNBC or NPR or on The View, or she could join one of those Never Trump political organizations.

The height of her career was U.S. Ambassador to the UN.
