Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley has claimed that former President Donald Trump “rigged” the Nevada Republican primary.
On Tuesday, Haley lost the Nevada primary to “None of These Candidates” by more than 30 points, 30.8 to 63 percent.
In other words, when given the choice between Haley and no one, Nevadans went 2-1 with no one.
Trump was not included on that ballot. He chose to run for the Nevada caucus instead. The caucus will be held today, February 8th. Nevada’s delegates are all interested in tonight’s caucuses, as the state Republican Party wanted nothing to do with the primary.
Haley’s decision to ignore Nevada (she had never campaigned or advertised there) was ironic. By not officially joining Nevada, she could conveniently pretend that the next state after Iowa and New Hampshire was her home state of South Carolina. The only problem is that polls show that President Trump humiliated Ms. Haley at his home on February 24th and is likely to do it again the following week during Super Tuesday.

What Haley didn’t count on in Nevada was that Republicans would be willing to vote in the primary even though “None of These Candidates” was their first choice, not Haley. . The resulting narrative was brutal for her, and Trump took full advantage of it. President Trump: “Bad night for Nikki Haley” Posted In true social. “In Nevada, we lost to ‘None of These Candidates’ by almost 30 points. Look, she will soon be victorious! ”
Well, she didn’t claim victory, but she is trying to claim — without evidence — that the primary was a “fraud” and that Trump “rigged” it.

She told FOX 11 in Los Angeles on Wednesday: So Nevada didn’t count either. That wasn’t something we were considering. ”
“Nevada, it’s really a scam,” she continued. “They were supposed to have a primary. Mr. Trump arranged for the indicted Republican chairman to hold a caucus.”
“We knew from the beginning that it was fraud,” Haley added. “We’re focused on South Carolina, Michigan and Super Tuesday.”
That’s pure BS.
And even if it wasn’t BS, Haley still lost to “none of these candidates” by 30 points.
What exactly is wrong with the Republican Party’s choice of caucuses rather than primaries? The party is supposed to set its own primary rules. . The party chairman may be Trump’s friend, but what does that have to do with cheating? The chairman of every party is friends with someone. so what? It would be a different story if she were alleging that someone was trying to rig the vote count. It would be a fraud if she claimed she faced a different set of rules than President Trump. But that’s not what she’s saying…she’s saying it’s “rigged” and “fraudulent” because the party chair chose caucuses over primaries. Sorry, that doesn’t make sense. Nowhere does she claim how the caucus process gave Trump any advantage.
I won’t spell out the point, but according to Haley, the primary was a “clean” choice, and yet she lost in the primary to “none of these candidates.”
Nikki needs to go home and read a book about the Civil War or something…
