Night Cap: Haley’s Democrat Supporters Won’t Vote for Her in the General Election

by
Op-Ed

My good friends, Don Bolduc and Rep. Bob Healey, recently got back-to-back coverage in the Union Leader simply because they espoused their ho-hum rhetoric against President Trump in favor of their friend Nikki Haley. Hey, I get it. We all want to showcase the good points of our favored candidate and disparage the “opposition.”

But, while Bolduc refrained from outright nastiness toward Trump, Healey went full throttle with his ridiculous portrayal of wizardry nonsense. Something, I’m sure, the Union Leader enjoyed printing.

Don and Bob put their own political spin on Trump. Healey claimed that Trump promised to cut spending, who then turned around and signed the largest spending bill in history. What he ‘forgot’ to mention was that it was during the 2020 Covid epidemic, and the Democrat-controlled Congress passed the whopping $900 billion pandemic relief package and tacked on a $1.4 trillion catchall spending bill. They then sent the 5,593-page – the longest bill ever – to Trump’s desk to sign. There was no chance of President Trump vetoing the bill because he did not have the votes in Congress to support it. Nice spin, though.


Fake Kudos” to the Union Leader.  They opted once again to choose to print Trump-critical’ op-eds while refusing to print my op-eds in favor of Trump.  Way to go UL!


Bolduc claimed Haley “represents the opportunity” to end the tit-for-tat rancor in politics. Hmm, when Don was running for U.S. Senate to represent NH, Haley backed and supported him. Healey worked for the Bolduc campaign. Now, they both have their own little tit-for-tat in support of their friend Haley. I’m not knocking it (good for them for their loyalty to her). I’m just pointing out that all aspects of tit-for-tat will always be part of the political scene, and Bolduc and Healey know it.

They claim that Trump is polarizing and divisive, but the only polarization being done is from the actions of Democrats and the media who, in controlling the message to the uninformed voters, promote their agenda of orange man bad. The media and their Democrat pals are the ones who perpetuate divisive politics with their false narratives and selective editing.

Let’s talk about Haley and her track record. She can’t run from it; she’s been in party establishment politics much longer than Bolduc claims. The reality of her twelve years in South Carolina as a state legislator, then governor, was a variety of incompetence, shocking mismanagement, and scandals. She doled out endless favors to big donor corporations and the rich, and her practice of pay-to-play made her legendary in SC politics. In other words, she was – and still is – owned by Wall Street billionaires.

She gave tax incentives – taxpayer money – to Chinese Communist companies. She sided with Disney, opposing parental rights for Florida. She opposed SC legislation to keep boys out of girl’s bathrooms. She says she’s opposed to vaccine mandates, but she voted against allowing parents to opt-out.

Haley’s leadership is inclusive all right, not to the needs of the people of SC, but to the lobbyists of corporate America who continue to line her pockets with the $ millions they give her.

Bolduc claims that candidate Haley gives us “fresh ideas” but the thousands of Haley Mail that choked our mail boxes every day for weeks prior to the NH Primary tells a different story.

They mimic every policy that Trump has already delivered when he was in the White House.

Nothing new and fresh to see here from Haley. She speaks in ‘talking points,’ and when she is forced to go off-script when a voter asks a question, she makes Bidenesque flubs and makes a fool of herself.

Haley came in a distant third in Iowa’s caucus. And, then she lost to Trump by double digits in New Hampshire’s primary. Haley can spin the results, but it was Democratic-leaning Independents who picked up a Republican ballot on January 23 to vote for Haley simply to skew a Republican primary vote. Oops, they lost.

What makes Don and Bob think that those same Democrat Independents will vote for Haley if she became the nominee in November? No, they will treat her the same way they treat Trump. They will vilify her and vote for Biden like good little partisan voters.
