I think shed be a better pick than Biden 4 hours ago, Natalia Kills said: Judy is an icon. Her biographical books are actually neat and how she refused to be a homemaker to the point she divorced her husband. Plus I like that she just dishes out the cold hard truth to people about their life decisions, even if the show is staged. Nikki Haley is pretty great too. I don’t agree with her on some LGBT issues but it just isn’t a priority for me compared to the challenges we’ve seen over the last few years. Her stance on abortion is pretty lenient, well for a Republican. She’d get my vote against Trump or Biden at this rate, though Biden would be the next best choice. What is wrong with y'all lmao. Saying you'd vote Haley over Biden is certifiably insane Whimsical bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOT 3,605 Posted January 10, 2024 Share Posted January 10, 2024 Judy Judy Judy, Haley is not the future. She is a conservative. That kinda means by definition that she is the past. Anyway, I think there are four possibilities right now : Biden, Trump, and if Trump gets knocked out it's Haley or DeSantis. So it's Biden 1 and Haley 2.

Saying you'd vote Haley over Biden is certifiably insane You have no idea how many democrats would desert to her if she's the nominee. A poll had her leading Biden by 17pts just because she'd steal a lot of his voters To me it seems people are really uncomfortable with an 82-year old man being re-elected for 4 more years at a time when the world is in such turmoil. It's a shame that the democratic party won't have a serious primary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone would defect from Biden to Haley just 'cause he's old then they stand for literally nothing The problem in this country is people vote for the individual they convince themselves they like in the moment rather than voting for the politician that supports the policies they agree with Biden could be a 600 year old ogre for all I care, I'd still vote for him over ANY Republican 'cause my ideals align with his more Whimsical bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bionic 50,111 Posted January 10, 2024 Share Posted January 10, 2024 Nikki Haley is keeping her more extreme views quiet because she knew in the dream world where she is the Republican candidate she will need to court moderate voters who will be put off by abortion bans etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very rarely is there a candidate that really aligns with your views. I know I only voted for Biden to get Trump out of office. I would much rather he not run again. I only know this person from this thread, which is on a site full of generally far left winged people who predominantly vote on social issues first and foremost, sharing their thoughts on the matter, so I am not sure what is the case or not, but I will definitely research her and if I like her more than Biden, I would vote for her.

Mikah 156 Posted January 10, 2024 Share Posted January 10, 2024 I think the next president will be a Republican regardless of what we want. I fear if people don’t support her now, Trump will be re-elected. She is impressive in her speeches and criticizes her own party, which I find refreshing.

It's a shame that the democratic party won't have a serious primary. I live in the South and I know a lot of women my mom's age who voted for Biden, but would vote for Nikki because they really want a woman to be president and they normally vote repub but dislike Trump too much to vote for him. I think women like that would be a surprisingly huge demographic. 7 hours ago, PartySick said: The problem in this country is people vote for the individual they convince themselves they like in the moment rather than voting for the politician that supports the policies they agree with Exactly, a lot of people see this as voting for America's Prom King or something and the demographics matter the most to them My old cat is a tough man, but i cant deny the way he bites my hand and he stabs me, he grabs me by my heart <3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely that’s the point of democracy? I actually like Biden but he’s simply past his prime to be a leader. It just makes absolutely zero sense to me to be undecided between a hard line conservative and a liberal democrat. Like, what stances do you have where that enormous space on the political spectrum falls under your ideals? They're completely different If you're a Republican then fine but I just can't see a possibility where an informed and opinionated person "could go either way". Idc who Biden is, I care about what he has and will work for. 11 hours ago, Agunimon said: I generally agree, but I think when it comes time to vote, the majority of people vote for "well X isn't Y, so I'll vote for them."

Conservative politicians are evil imo. Heartless and greedy at best, so I'd NEVER consider voting for one. Even one as "palatable" as Haley. If you find any redeemable qualities within her that don't amount to "not as bad as other Republicans" I'd love to hear it tbh Whimsical bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
