Nikki Haley’s presidential campaign bashed her GOP competitors Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Vivek Ramaswamy on Tuesday, accusing them of trying to copy former President Trump.
Haley’s campaign manager Betsy Ankney said in a memo that Haley has not been afraid to be open about the areas in which she agrees and disagrees with the former president and that she is the only one who can defeat him and President Biden.
“Ron DeSantis and Vivek Ramaswamy fall all over themselves to copy Trump on everything from policy to his leadership style,” Ankney said.
If that’s the center of the Republican party today, you should be voting for the traditional center of the Republican party, the Democrats.
lol I appreciate the recommendation, but I don’t really align with most of the Democratic Party’s viewpoints.
Are you sure you want to support the Nazi party instead?
hey person who i have no quarrel with, using ‘Nazi’ to describe a party with a differing view on what a well-functioning government looks like will only get you so far. you discount any challenge to the way you think.
I use Nazi to describe a party that is bigoted against multiple groups of people and trying to seize power and implement fascist policies. If you don’t like that the party you support is the Nazi party, I can’t help that. As an ethnic Jew, I saw the writing on the wall when it came to Republicans a long time ago.
your exaggerated viewpoint is the reason there is such a division between the two, you leave no room for middle ground. i’m just a normal person that can understand your viewpoint on things, but your facade of inability to do the same promotes some sort of unnecessary competition between us.
Correct. There is no room for a middle ground when it comes to Nazis. You either support them or you don’t. And if you support them, what does that make you?
well since I don’t believe they are Nazis, that makes me believe that you are being disingenuous

I am actually interested. Is all this current culture war part of a “well functioning government”? Does a “well functioning government” seek to focus on culture wars while cutting taxes, eliminating environmental protections, and eliminating technological progress in the background? Does your “well functioning government” include outlawing anything “woke”, bathroom bills, don’t say gay laws, laws that specifically seek to make the singular book “The Bluest Eyes” illegal to sell or loan to a child, outlawing trans care for adults, and instituting pregnancy checks for women at the border of abortion legal states? Is that the well functioning part? Because if not, you certainly shouldn’t consider yourself a Republican. Those things seem to be all any Republican Congress person can talk about these days.
And yes, I’m aware that they would lable my last sentence “woke” because I said Congress person, not congressman.
No it is not, I do not believe any focus on this culture war benefit anyone. I believe that a smaller government with less government intervention, less religion in politics, and lower taxes will lead to a better future. At the same time I believe that socialized healthcare, more environmental protections, and allowing adults to do whatever they want (minus harming others) are needed for a better future.
What I’m trying to do in this discussion is point out that demonetization prevents both parties to meet in the middle where there is common ground allowing a build from there. Just because I align with the title of “Republican” people on this platform immediately discount any following ideas or viewpoints.
