You know how I know that Haley doesn't have the guts to be President?

If she did, she would have called Cheato out when he threatened to expose "scandals" about her last night. She'd say, "91 times indicted felon says what?"

But she doesn't have the integrity, determination and courage to do that.

So why should anyone vote for her? Of course her positions are deplorable, but even if a voter likes them, why would they vote for a wimp who can't defend herself against such an easy target?

Honestly, she seems pretty straight laced to me. And she has been vetted as a Governor and Ambassador.

Plenty of info online.

Certainly if anyone who has affairs was ruled out as Governor and Ambassador there would be a lot of vacant positions.

that ship has sailed, especially since he lashed out at her mild criticism so insanely? The guy is the king of revenge and I can't see him picking her. She's got to know that.

saying even if clown was found guilty she would still vote for him if he is the nominee. Hard to take that back. She is a flag waving in the wind.

Remember that word "pander"? You used to hear about pandering politicians all the time. She is definitely pandering to everyone except the people who want her stand up to Cheato.

Trump might be able to do as he wishes without worrying about losing cult members' votes

I don't think Haley has that.

If she really attacked Chump in public, the MAGA-crazies would just go absolutely nuts.
Too many of them have guns and no scruples.

That's probably what Chris Christie was getting until about a week ago.

she wouldn't have time to do anything else.

I think it actually shows a little self-restraint on her part to not take the bait.

It was a direct threat from a defendant in 91 felony counts. Easy to rebut and makes Cheato look really bad if that interests her at all.
