Haley Cedes Republican Race to Trump, but Does Not Endorse Him
www.nytimes.com
Nikki Haley suspended her campaign after Donald J. Trump rolled to wins on Super Tuesday. But she said the former president must earn the backing of her supporters, whom President Biden said he would welcome with open arms.

After Donald J. Trump tallied victories in Texas, California and 12 other states, Nikki Haley was expected to drop out of the presidential race, according to people familiar with her plans. She was set to deliver remarks in Charleston, S.C., at 10 a.m. Eastern.

    Then I would suggest voting for Biden.

    Even if you are lukewarm on Biden, he will 100% be gone and retired in 4 years. Then we can get a shot at a newer, younger candidate.

    On the flip side, Trump and the Republicans, through Project 2025, are going to gut federal government employees and replace them with loyalists. They will make it extremely difficult for anyone who is not a Trump sycophant to be in government.

    If Trump wins, he will not leave until he dies and his brand of vitriolic and caustic politics will be here to stay. I would not be surprised if he appointed one of his children as his successor.

    Biden is not perfect, but his platform, coalition, and the people he empowers are 100% better than the alternative.

        No.
        Go browbeat elsewhere, asshole. You are the reason we are where we are now.

        Rules 1 and 2:

        1. Remember the human. When you communicate online, all you see is a computer screen. This doesn’t exempt you from basic politeness. No name-calling, hostility, saying horrible things you wouldn’t say to a person’s face, etc.

        2. Don’t be a dick. No bigotry, racism, xenophobia, sexism, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, toxic nationalism, promotion or glorification of violence, etc.

        This forum is for civil discussion. Disagreements are natural and welcome, insults are not.
        We ask you refrain from name-calling, hostility and behavior that otherwise derails the quality of the conversation.
