Nikki Haley’s presidential campaign bashed her GOP competitors Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Vivek Ramaswamy on Tuesday, accusing them of trying to copy former President Trump.
Haley’s campaign manager Betsy Ankney said in a memo that Haley has not been afraid to be open about the areas in which she agrees and disagrees with the former president and that she is the only one who can defeat him and President Biden.
“Ron DeSantis and Vivek Ramaswamy fall all over themselves to copy Trump on everything from policy to his leadership style,” Ankney said.
I don’t think that’s really true. In particular, I think most or all of the saner/more stable/more centric Republicans abandoned the party in the wake of Trump’s insanity and are now Independents. Because only the lunatic fringe stayed on the ship, it’s now genuinely a lunatic fringe party overall.
There are reasons to ‘stay on’ like voting in the appropriate elections. I’m not saying that there aren’t a lot of fringe lunatics, but I am saying that the majority for both parties are significantly more central than what is painted in these echo chambers and by both side’s radical media.
I don’t expect that you have all the beliefs that right wing media paints democrats as.
Is it because they are well documented liars?
When Fox News successfully argued in court that no reasonable person would believe the content presented in Tucker Carlson’s production was factual or true, and was instead just entertainment, did that give you pause? Are you a reasonable person? If you’ve believed any of their programming Fox doesn’t think you are.
Or can I assume you don’t know about it because Right Wing media doesn’t cover any deficiencies of the conservative machine unless they’ve gotten out of line, and are instead just fascist cheerleaders willing to say anything for power? Ends justify the means afterall…
