[SPECIAL JANUARY PROMOTION: Spend $50+ In The FPM Store And Receive A Free Copy Of “Final Battle” By David Horowitz.]
A reader in New Hampshire emailed me Saturday and said that in that day’s mail, he had received no fewer than twelve mailings asking for his vote in Tuesday’s primary. He said that wasn’t unusual this close to the big day, but that what struck him about them was that every last one of them was for or against a single candidate. He kindly sent me screenshots of the mailings, and from the looks of the campaign mailings in the first primary state, the Republican contest this year is all about one candidate: Nikki Haley.
This was just one day’s mail, and maybe on the other days this reader’s mailbox was full of pro-Trump or-DeSantis appeals that didn’t mention Haley; after all, all these mailings were prepared before DeSantis dropped out of the race. But they make it clear why DeSantis decided to pack it in: from the looks of these mailings, Tuesday in New Hampshire is apparently a vote for Haley or against her. Eight were pro-Haley and four were pro-Trump, but even the Trump mailings were all about Haley.
Has Nikki Haley suddenly become the Republican frontrunner? In a certain sense, yes: she clearly represents the Mitch McConnell/Kevin McCarthy wing of the party, that is, the establishment Republicans who wish Trump had never come around and hope he’ll go away for good soon. Two of her mailings contain the same warning: “WE CAN’T RISK IT / With President Trump’s criminal trials and the Liberal media’s bias against him, our country can’t risk four more years of Joe Biden.”
While this may appeal to those who love Trump but are worried about his, and America’s, prospects, Haley also reaches out to those who hate him: “Donald Trump can’t defend his fiscal record, so he is lying about Nikki Haley’s,” says one mailing, which features headlines about how Trump increased spending and added to the national debt. The rest of the Haley mailings don’t mention Trump and try to present Haley as a fresh new alternative, although they’re larded with generic rhetoric that can be, and has been, said about every candidate under the sun: “Nikki Haley has a plan to make Washington work for you, not the other way around.” “She will be the new leader Washington so desperately needs.”
In contrast, all four Trump mailings spend as much or more time hitting Haley than they do actually touting Trump. “Nikki Haley & Joe Biden’s Open Borders Put America In Danger,” says one. Another asserts that “Nikki Haley’s Day One Checklist” will include “Cut Social Security & Medicare” and “Raise the Retirement Age to Receive Your Benefits.” Therefore, voters should “Reject Nikki Haley On Jan. 23rd.” Another says that Nikki Haley is “Too Weak and Too Liberal to Fix the Border!” In fact, “Tricky Nikki Is Too Close With COMMUNIST CHINA.”
From these mailings, one might get the impression that it was Haley who had a big lead in the polls, and Trump was trying to close the gap. Trump has plenty that he could run on from his tenure as president, but instead it seems as if his team has opted to demonize Haley front and center, and only secondarily to talk about what he has done and what he plans to do.
This is an intriguing indication that Haley may really be the frontrunner, in terms of the candidate whom the powerful elements in the Republican party favor. The Trump campaign appears to be aware that Trump’s legal predicament, as politically motivated, unjust, and bogus as it is, is a double-edged sword: while it has led rank-and-file Republicans to rally around him and denounce the Biden regime’s banana republic tactics, it has made the Republican establishment extremely nervous. For the establishment, Haley represents a return to the comfortable days of John McCain and Mitt Romney, when Republicans knew their place in the workings of official Washington, and were happy playing second fiddle and giving Americans the appearance of a multiparty free republic. They didn’t rock the boat.
Then Trump came along and upset everything. The people who want to make sure that he doesn’t get another chance to do so from the Oval Office are not all Democrats. The Trump campaign in New Hampshire clearly knows that no matter how big a lead their man has in the polls, he could still end up losing. Call it the lesson of 2020.
If you subscribe to her email list you will be inundated with junk, and the unsubscribe option is ignored completely.
Sadly she’s an establishment figure who will split the republican vote unless the democrats release the vaccine death statistics caused by Trump being duped by the World pHarma Organisation.
I got junk even without subscribing. She the Spam Queen of the ruling class.
If we dont vote for who they tell us to vote for, we get 4 more years of Biden as a punishment. The Nobles have spoken, we now know to be excited about the Haley campaign.
Ugly warmongering b–tch she is.
Nikki Hillary Haley is four more years of punishment as well, a different kind of punishment, but just as bad, maybe worse.
Nikki Haley is Ron DeSantis in drag.
in my opinion, John Bolton in a skirt…. a lying warmonger who suggested tat American’s social security be slashed so more money would be available for Ukraine!!!!!!!
Loathesome puppet of the UniParty funded by the same democrat who is paying the legal and court costs for the crazy crone currently accusing Trump of raping her.
Haley has not gained the popularity that the rinos and the left thought she would. She is supported by globalists, and elites, and funded by globalists that are using her to fool people that she is an alternative to Trump, and theres no way her policies would do anything but harm Amerca further. The writing is on the wall.
You can support Trump if you want. You do not have to vilify Nicki Haley to do it. Elections are about choices. Just because someone is running against the candidate you support does not mean that person is evil or hates America.
Trump is not America. He is a candidate running for election in a democracy. He does not get to not have someone running against him that people might support.
No one is running against Biden on the Democrat side although I am sure most Americans wish someone would. Democracy is not strengthened by not having elections with more than one candidate.
Elections are not about choices when the royals interfere and negatively, deliberately, affect vote counting, stuffing ballot boxes between 1:00 am and 4:00 am and send Republican watchers home while Dems continue to “count” ballots, intake truckloads of ballots from out of state, etc., on and on. Zuckerberg bucks was about bias not proper ballot handling and counting. That is the Democrat Party’s actual view of America. Trump represents a vast group of (legal) citizens that are tired of leftist tactics to diss our Republic all so they may continue their dominance. Illegal aliens voting is not American by any measure except that of the left and Democrat Party. Why else would the corrupt Dems ignore the SCOTUS to buy votes of college students or gift illegal aliens entering here with smartphones, welfare, plane rides to their city of choice in the northern states. The Democrat Party has weakened this Republic with its push of criminality, illicit drugs, human trafficking. Haley is a tool of the royals, multi-billionaires, the (corrupt national media), non-scholarly universities. She is technically, legally not qualified to be president.
When it is all over this creature will be richer and will have had her 15 minutes of fame.
The problem is that Nikki Haley isn’t going anywhere. She’s in for the long haul; not because she will ever be president. That’s not her job. Her job is to be the only Republican alternative to Trump. Now that Desantis is out, that’s what she is. If the Democrat machine really does disable him she’ll get the nod and we’re all the way back to McCain/Romney country.
The problem with Nikki Haley is she cannot differntiate herself from Biden. Her positions are so close to the current administration that we would just have 4 more years of this hell.
Love or hate her, she seems to be banking on the plausible situation where Trump is eliminated from the scene….in a range of ways, from coup attempt to assasination Although a staunch friend of Israel as proven as ambassador to the UN, one cannot forget her dishonest backstabbing attempts at Trump. (and the resulting dismay of half of America who voted Trump and who were also severely wronged at the 2020 election steal.
