Polls say Trump would struggle against Biden where Nikki would have a much easier time, and frankly in Haley v Biden my money is on Haley. Putting Trump in prison would be good for democracy, but I am also seeing a trap card.

    Nikki Haley agreed with the ruling that embryos are people, that should be enough to kill any chance she had with dems or moderates.

      She did, but don’t forget moderates ability to completely forget about human rights when the woke left will take away their gas stoves and hamburgers.

      But let’s be honest, any explanation is just shooting in the dark at this moment. Just look at the polls. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/

      Haley leads Biden by 16-18 points when Trump leads by 2-4 in some polls. Looking at some of the others Biden leads by small margins, but most all of them Haley fares better than Trump.

        Fivethirtyeight is still around? I’m surprised they didn’t just absorb it or abandon it after firing Nate & all the good writers.

          Wait, Nate Silver isn’t part of it anymore? Well that ruined any reason for me to pay attention to it.

            Not only that, the election models belonged solely to Nate and not the company. So they fired him, and lost what he used to make them famous.

          Bought by abc. “Site” is still there, but redirects and so far doesn’t have the same quality of content. BUT to be fair “poll tracking” just might start until primary close.
