Nikki Haley has no conscience. She's going to run for president of United States some day and win.

wonder if it’s this time……..



idk if it's this time. because her people tried hard with this and it's really hard to go wrong with this message among right-wingers online, on the site that's like 50% chasing approval through screenshots of dead media. And she still got ratio'd really bad





just getting rocked side to side by the most obvious comebacks to reactionary shit





why? Also why am I posting it in this thread and not the Twitter containment tank? Because you touch yourself at night (tpaine pop culture reference)

No it's because Haley may be a sort of pseudo-human robot without moral programming, but right now she cannot summon the people who would angrily, tearily defend the fascist fear of history's march. Even online!! And one big sign of why is that her people capped this weak post with the statement "we must vote Joe Biden out." Of course it's pathetic that her campaign is afraid to suggest people vote for her, in an era where the old standby "vote the bum out" has been replaced for her party with "i'm the most bloated balloon at the the rodeo", but… there's a more fundamental problem.

The AmeriKKKoids who would otherwise scuttle in to defend the Haley post specifically because of how stupid and empty it is… those people today live a 24/7 half-believed LARP, and the core narrative is that Actually, they don't need to vote Biden out. A Trump appointee saying that they do is coward shit to them. It also makes them nervous, makes them feel like important people are laughing at them somewhere. Because per their petty-bourgeois/lumpen part-time life quest… Biden lost the election, or would have been declared to have lost the election if Pence or the Supreme Court hadn't betrayed them, and so, if they keep doing… something… the existing government will be lawyered into installing Trump as president retroactively, soon and very soon, by power of sovereign-citizen-theory-style KKKonstitution magick. Either that or they're pretending to believe that out of desire for clout or lack of friends, and if they give up now, their fellow bugs will cannibalize them, so, same difference. The topic of this thread in other words.

So, the Jan-6ers who Nikki Haley needs do not like Nikki Haley, because (1) they’re racists but also (2) electing a former Trump official running against Trump would snap their fantasy in two over God's knee. It’s not like the other drips trying to be the candidate, where if they won, they'd maybe spend a year or two suggesting that Trump actually won too back in 2020 and it's just too bad no one can do anything about it now, and the LARPers could sort of continue to live the fantasy until they’re bored of it, then retire it quietly with minimal personal embarrassment. Without those people, the only natural home for Haley as an outmoded sociopath is the "never-Trumper" Republican media set, and they lost all relevance when a Democrat got elected. But heck maybe something will change and she'll win this time instead of winning any later HHIC election which would also vindicate me completely.

As for Mike Pence, that guy is not really a candidate. He is not running for HHIC. He is running as a money funnel for an organization that will trade future-primary percentage points to a non-Trump candidate when he backs out of the race, a weird loser that a small gaggle of pseudo-pious Protestant creeps will back in some key state or another, which will guarantee direct financial benefit from that trade for Pence and his crew for the rest of their lives.

I described everything Pence had to do to become the presumptive nominee, back when people here were discussing him as the potential anonymous writer of the anti-Trump Republican op-ed in 2018. He had to play ball with the feds against Trump, and he had to otherwise keep his head down until people forgot about it and he could sell himself as Trump 2.0. Memories are short, in 2001 people were calling Joe Lieberman the shoo-in 2004 Democrat candidate because he and Dick Cheney made kissy-face at each other during the VP debates, no one in the Washington press thinks hard. Even if Trump didn't promptly have a stroke or die of old age, the slate could have been blanked in time for Pence.

Well he couldn't keep his head down because Trump asked him to overturn the election, the two requirements for his candidacy came into direct conflict, so the Trump people sent excited texts to each other LARPing a lynch mob, they set up a gallows for him, the primary voters every Republican candidate needs literally want Pence dead to this day, and on top of that, he is a very bad figurehead even for the anti-Trump types because he is widely seen as the true epitome of that Coward Shit, as a shivering servant too spineless to go all-in on a power grab, doomed or otherwise, and that cannot be sold to the current Republican base even if they turn rabidly against Trump for reasons unknown.

If Mike Pence became the Republican HHIC candidate for 2024 it would only be from a level of out-front CIA trickery so astounding and unprecedented, Dag Hammarskjöld might as well leap out of his grave and give a speech at the inauguration.

the United $nakes of AmeriKKKa continues its George Costanza phase by attempting a half assed student loan relief plan that pleased exactly no one, and then failing to even do that thanks to its Council of Imperial Grand Wizards

proponents of Third Worldism and the theory of labor aristocracy have typically treated all first world countries as functionally equivalent, with comparable welfare states derived from super profits from the third world. but AmeriKKKa is different through its central role in that from the beginning it also had massive internal population of super exploited laborers thanks to the Atlantic Slave Trade. it also had a Labor/Social Democrat period, but unlike its European counterparts, its welfare policies were neutered from the start to ensure that its minorities were excluded, as well as having tremendous success with the "communism means your daughter marries a black man" line.

the end result of this government by and for the slave owners is a bumbling impotent government of sclerotic septeguenarians. what is Congress if not an entire governing body of Weimar Era Hindenburgs or WWI Era Franz Josephs. the only time they can be aroused to any kind of action is to ensure that Bernard Sanders, fellow necromancer and someone who makes Mitterand look like Chairman Gonzalo, never comes remotely close to becoming HHIC

the U$A is truly on the vanguard is MTWism: "what happens if we never even pretend to throw the occasional bone to our Labor Aristocracy"
