Trouble For Trump As Nikki Haley Voters PAC Endorses Kamala Harris

A political action committee formed by former Nikki Haley voters has already endorsed Kamala Harris for President, even though the candidate that they supported, Haley herself, endorsed Donald Trump. This is bad news for Trump, as it shows that Harris might be able to woo moderate Republicans who don't like the idea of another Trump term in office. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

Even though Nikki Haley herself recently came out and not only endorsed Donald Trump, but also went ahead and released her delegates ahead of the RNC convention, said, y'all go ahead and vote for Trump instead of vote for me. Totally humiliated herself with that. But even though she endorsed Donald Trump, that doesn't mean that her supporters are falling in line. In fact, a group of those supporters shortly after Haley dropped outta the race, launched a new super PAC that at the time was called Haley's supporters for Biden and had a couple million dollars in that super pac. So they had a lot of money from a lot of Nikki Haley supporters that Donald Trump desperately needed. But you know what happened this past week to the Haley supporters for Biden? Well, those Republican voters changed the name of that super pac and the new name of the super PAC is Haley's supporters for Harris.

That's right. This super PAC of Nikki Haley voters has come out and publicly endorsed vice President Kamala Harris to be the next president of the United States. Here is what Craig Snyder, the group's director, told Newsweek, he said that Harris is best suited to defeat Donald Trump in November. A tough former prosecutor, the vice president comes from the centrist wing of the Democratic party, uh, not its leftmost fringe for Haley voters. All of this puts the vice president in a sweet spot for them to register their ongoing opposition to Trump. Now, they also pointed out something that I'm not completely thrilled about, but I understand, given the political landscape right now, it's not possible, uh, that she's more of a centrist that I don't like, right? I want a hugely progressive person to take over the White House, but this country is not prepared to vote for somebody like that.

So even though I know that that is what is best for this country, even though I know that that is what I want, I know it's not what we can have this cycle, and I am willing to accept that I am willing to make those concessions. Much like these Haley voters, right? These are Republicans, but they're saying, listen, I'll go for the centrist over the Republican because I see how dangerous the Republican is. And I'm kind of the same way. It's like, look, I'm a leftist, but I will go for the centrist because I see how dangerous the Republican is and I don't have anybody, you know, that represents my values as well as the centrist does. And again, I am not a centrist by any stretch of the imagination, but we gotta do what wins at this point, not

Because we need to do our team sports, and, uh, Democrats have to win because Democrats need to win. No, no, no. It's because of the danger posed by the other side. That's what terrifies me. Project 2025, the more you read about it, like aside from what's already publicly known, you get into their, you know, manifesto, we should call it. It is horrifying. Their tax policy is horrifying. Everything about that group and what they want to do to this country is terrible, and we need to prevent that. So we may have to make concessions. We may have to vote for a Democrat and possibly even a more centrist running mate for that Democrat than we would want. Yeah, we may be in a lesser of two evil situation again, but that's where we are and we cannot change that right now. So we deal with the reality that we have, not the reality that we want. We will have to make some concessions and hopefully, kind of like we did with Biden, when they get into office, we'll push 'em, we'll keep pushing to the left. And if that doesn't cut it, we will push a more leftist candidate in the 2028 election.
