3. What's so puzzling to me...

IMO she's not even acting in her own self-interest. She has opportunities that are going to fall away if she throws her lot in with this failed president. People that are towards the end of their careers, like Graham and McConnell, I understand why they do what they do. But Haley? I don't get it.

4. People who worship Dump

all seem to believe that their views are shared by the majority of the country. It’s just so astonishing that they are so delusional in their worship.

8. Maybe she is going to replace Pence after all

Does Pence take the fall for Ukraine? Say it was all his idea and he gave the president bad advice.

The House would probably confirm Haley to be the new VP. If not, Trump doesn't have to look like he is dumping Pence for VP.

11. I don't believe Haley is such a shoo-in with the House.

Speaker Pelosi can always say they can wait for the next President to nominate a VP.

Anyway, I don't think the switch will be made in the current office holders, it will be made on the campaign ticket.

It could very well be that Pence is sick of it or Trump doesn't trust Pence.

this great Country of ours vs. the scumbag party. No hint of disapproval, nothing. Nothing worse than a brought and paid for politician, eh? The worse kind.

13. She's gotta suck up to Trump and his followers. Who else is going to buy her stupid book?

She needs that book money so she can bide her time until she runs for Pres.

14. We South Carolinians have long known that she never had a soul.

Or, dignity. Or, integrity. We are not surprised that she hitched her wagon to Trump. She's a con artist. Always has been.
