Fox News host Laura Ingraham discussed the current state of the Republican primary on Monday's “The Ingraham Angle” on the eve of the showdown between former President Trump and Nikki Haley.
Laura Ingraham: with some reason, [Nikki] Haley believes the right way to attract working-class Republicans and independents is to court Wall Street. The Hill reports that billionaires Stanley Druckenmiller, Henry Kravis, Ken Langone and Cliff Asness are planning a major fundraiser for Haley. Then you'll be in New York. But that's not all. Because after that, she's going to Miami and Palm Beach. meet wealthy donors Officials say they will also travel to California and Texas before the South Carolina primary, where they hope to meet more donors.
Now, Haley's team is bragging about all of this, boasting $24 million in fourth-quarter revenue. That's a lot of money. However, she also finished third in Iowa. [up].Did it really work? It doesn't leave much of an impression on me.
She hopes an additional $4 million in advertising purchases in South Carolina will make her less like Jeb Bush. She's not the Jeb Bush of 2024. That can't be true. But in this situation, where her message of victory is closer to power over the people, she pivots to power over the plutocracy. That's not wise at all for billionaires or even billionaires. governor haley. At this point they might as well set their money on fire. Throw it off the roof of the tallest building you can find or send it to their favorite objective. I don't know, but I'm trying to get creative here. Ukraine. Send it directly to Zelensky.
Haley makes her case to DeSantis voters, vows to 'absolutely' move on to South Carolina after N.H. primary
Haley is done, and delaying the obvious will only ensure that she has no political future. At this point, it does not cause much damage to President Trump. Well, if you think Liz Cheney has a bright political future, she might have one.
Now, Trump didn't win. DeSantis ran a weak campaign.. A lot of people are dumping on DeSantis. Trump won because the Republican base was never going to abandon him after the Biden administration decided to use the Justice Department against him. So conservatives understand correctly that they can never force Democrats to choose their nominee. I never have. And we know that if they succeed in weaponizing the Justice Department against President Trump, they will use the same tactics against anyone who truly threatens their grip on power. This kind of tyranny cannot be tolerated, and the Republican Party wisely united to prevent it from happening.
Now, under these circumstances, most Republicans weren't looking for an alternative in 2024. But let's not forget all the former Republicans who say they were appalled by President Trump's mess. For almost eight years, they've been telling us they don't really care about President Trump's policies. No, they were just angry that he didn't follow the norm, that he was dangerous. Now, Governor DeSantis' campaign has proven that these people were, in fact, lying. Because if they were really looking for the principled conservatives they claim they want, they would have rallied to them. Governor DeSantis. But they didn't do that because they didn't like DeSantis' policies or his beliefs. They want open borders. They want the US to be China's equal, or even a junior partner. And they want social conservatives to stand down. And they want war. lots of wars.

That is, as long as it does not cause trouble to the Chinese Communist Party. That's what they always want. That's what they want now. Everything else they tell you is a lie. They're not conservatives, and frankly, they're not real patriots, especially not what I think of as patriots. That's why they had little interest in supporting DeSantis because they have no principles and only support politicians they can control.
