Nikki Haley says N.Y. prosecution of Trump is about ‘revenge’ (Nikki McRomBush finally weighs in)
Washington Times ^ | 3/21/23 | Tom Howell Jr.

Posted on 03/21/2023 6:24:53 AM PDT by cotton1706

Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley says the impending indictment of former President Donald Trump is about Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg exacting political “revenge” and not about justice.

Mrs. Haley, a 2024 candidate for president, weighed in on the hush-payment case being pursued by New York prosecutors as the emerging GOP field faces pressure from Mr. Trump and his supporters to take sides in the matter.

“Everything I have seen from this New York district attorney is that this would be something he’d be doing for political points, and I think what we know is, when you get into political prosecutions like this, it’s more about revenge than it is about justice,” Mrs. Haley said Monday on Fox News’s “Special Report.”

She's a RINO so she doesn't get that the Democrats will go after her just as hard.

Unless of course, she goes along with them. Then they'll ease up. As long as she doesn't REALLY oppose them.

It's ok to pretend to, though, to get the nomination, and then dutifully lose the general so that Democrats retain the Executive power of the people of the United States.

We've seen this game before, and are sticking with the one guy who ACTUALLY opposes the Democrats and the militant left.

The McRomBush types ALWAYS knuckle under.

She and DeSantis are the FNC of political candidates.

The Deep State controlled so-called opposition.

And Trump just smoked them out.

Thanks again, Mr. President!

I don’t get you people. Haley, like DeSantis, says something nice and supportive of President Trump and you immediately jump down her throat and insult her.

Just like you did DeSantis. What’s next for Haley? A mean nasty tweet from Trump like he did to DeSantis?

Gutter politics. Yeah. That makes me like and support Trump all the more. (sarc)

The poll numbers were devastating for her and Ron as people saw what judicial persecution looked like.

It's not about revenge. It's about controlling the elections.

If the Democrats are successful at weaponizing the judicial system in this manner, they can eliminate strong opponents and replace them with worms.

Yep.

They can’t win......say nothing and it’s wrong......say something and it’s the wrong thing. SMH

Don’t waste too much energy though......last time I saw paranoia like this Humphrey Bogart was on the witness stand talking about strawberries. 😁

It’s more about him having orange hair and the fact that he’s likely to win in ‘24.

“Haley, like DeSantis, says something nice and supportive of President Trump”

Yeah. After sitting back, “reading the room”, and concluding this is in their best interest. We have to ask them: “What took you so long?” It’s not even about Trump; it’s about America — and Nimrata is clueless about America.

“What took you so long?”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Great question. Perhaps DeSantis and Haley knew that making any response (even a kind one) regarding Trump’s little problem would come back to bite them in the butt.

And don’t ya know... it did.

That’s what they get for trying to be nice to Trump.

“I don’t get you people. Haley, like DeSantis, says something nice and supportive of President Trump and you immediately jump down her throat and insult her.”

Because she’s obviously adviser-driven. She waits days and days to say something, and when she does, predictively, it’s weak sauce.

We’ve seen her like before. She’s a McRomBush with no stomach for the fight.

revenge for??? winning in 2016? not sure i get her argument. does she not see the pattern of the FISA warrant/spying on campaign, Mueller, Impeachments 1 & 2, J6 travesty, electoral irregularities, collusion of media/social media to ban free discussion, as abuses of power, of the weaponization of the justice system, of electoral interference. more than revenge. but finally she has said something. i think she and DJT have managed to remain civil.

You think so? Well, hopefully she’s learned her lesson like the rest of us. And stay away from supporting Trump in any fashion whatsoever.

Incoming attack from Trump in 5 4 3 2 ....

Probably best to ignore Trump. It is a damned if you do and damned if you don’t person. Trump is never happy.
