NBC "News" Poll of Iowa Caucusgoers: Nearly Half of Nikki Haley's Supporters Will Vote for Joe Biden in General Election
And My Last Words On Trump (For a While)

Nikki Haley is a Deep State/Democrat plant?!! No way, dude!

Most likely Republican Iowa caucusgoers say they'll vote for former President Donald Trump in the general election if he's the GOP nominee, regardless of the candidate they're supporting on caucus night. Advertisement

That is, except supporters of former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, with nearly half of them -- 43% -- saying they'd vote for Democratic President Joe Biden over Trump.

Bill Kristol urged his fellow Democrats to vote for Haley -- and continue voting for Haley in the primaries, throughout "the winter and spring."

Note the Deep Staters and Democrats do not urge Republicans to vote for DeSantis to stop Trump. They view DeSantis as even worse -- Trump's policies being advanced by a guy who actually knows what the fuck he's doing.

This puts a lie to the claim of NeverTrumpers that they only oppose Trump due to his characterological and moral defects. They could have supported a man without such defects; instead, they always support liberal fake Republican. Proving that their opposition to Trump is actually largely just based on a rejection of Trump's policies.

But they don't want to admit that, because they're too busy trying to convince Republicans to vote for Democrats. They can't admit their real objection to Trump is that he's too conservative for them.

This also puts the lie to anyone who claims, like Sponge does, that anyone who champions DeSantis over Trump does so only because they're "liberal Democrats" who "support the Deep State" and whatever bullshit cope Sponge is making up in his ignorant, cult-member head.

No, some people, like me, have always been strong, enthusiastic supporters of the Trump ideology -- or at least what Trump claims his ideology is -- but have decided that Trump is simply too detested a figure, and too incompetent at persuading the unpersuaded or working the bureaucracy, to ever actually advance the Trump ideology.

You guys know that of the 1800 mile long Mexican border, Trump built a mere fifty miles of the much-heralded fence that Mexico is, one day, in theory, going to pay for? And he also "repaired" and even "fortified" another 200 miles.

So out of a 1800 mile long border, he, at his most charitable estimation, built/repaired 250 miles.

This is not "success," guys.

I know, I know -- "The Democrats opposed him!" Yes, of course they did. In every contest, the opposing team, get this, opposes you.

Just as Republicans are (weakly) opposing Biden.

But the idea that the other team was opposing you is not an excuse for failure. Real leaders find a way to win, despite the opposition.

On issue after issue, Trump makes a declaration on Twitter that he forgets about five minutes later to go fucking golfing and never checks up to see if his subordinates are actually advancing his (claimed) goals.

For some of us: We've had enough failure. We were told "We're going to have so much winning, we'll be tired of all the winning."

Instead, we've had failure after failure after electoral loss and electoral loss, and we've decided: Enough. Fucking enough. We've had so much losing, we are tired of all the losing.

So that's the real reason that former Trump supporters are now former Trump supporters.

Or, you know, you can just lie and claim that our objection to Trump's many failures is just that we're "Trump haters" and "secret Democrats" or "globalists" or whatever small-brained retards like Sponge say.

Is no one allowed to every point out the guy sure loses a lot? Is that just some kind of religious anathema now?

So anyway, Trump won. And this will be cause for great celebrations -- which overlook the fact that Trump's ability to win a majority of the minority of Republican primary voters has not been in much doubt.

The real question -- and I don't even think it's a question -- is whether he can win in a general election, not just a primary in which his supporters form a majority.

I say he can't, based on 2018, 2020, and 2022, with most of the most-Trump-associated candidates losing very winnable races due to the public's antipathy towards Trump.

Some people seem to believe in the Underpants Gnomes' plan for Trump's sudden rise to popularity:

1. Trump wins primaries (again)

2. ???

3. The public suddenly decides it likes Trump and his negatives fall from 53% to 35%, somehow

If there's a plan for Step 2, there, please clue me in. Because as far as I can see, this whole play relies entirely on prayers and hopes.

But I guess we've collectively chosen to roll the dice on whether a 78-year-old man who is also declining mentally and has the second-worst approval numbers in presidential history can finally win a second election.

I think people have a bad case of "Beautiful Loser" syndrome -- they want to lose, so that the world unmasks itself and shows that it's not worthy of them. The GOPe used to have this; I think there's a swath of the party that has it now. The world can either finally agree with you or else it will condemn itself as unworthy, and some are just fine with either outcome.

I'm not. I'm not okay with the world just proving it's just as rotten as I always expected. I want to win. I think we absolutely need to win, as in our fucking lives depend on it, and we cannot fuck around with thrice-loser waiting for him to finally get his shit together at age 78.

I do not believe America will survive a loss in 2024.

Say goodbye to the Supreme Court for just a start. And after that -- it all goes.

But the party seems to have made its choice, and I will not stand in your way. I think you've chosen failure, loss, and a catastrophic end to this country, but whatever, I guess I'm just a pro-liberal globalist who is Gay like Ron DeSanctimonious.

And I only oppose Trump because I'm a "hater," and not for any of the clear reasons I have consistently expressed. You can ignore everything I say just because I'm a "hater" and all my thoughts are tainted and twisted by this "hate."

Good luck.

So that's my piece. I will not rub it in your face, but I will tell you I believe you have chosen catastrophically, and even though you're probably saying right now "If we lose in 2024, it's no big deal anyway, because the left was in control anyway," I absolutely, 100% guarantee you you will think it's a big deal after the loss.

Those are my last words for a while. You can reject them as you like, but if you attempt to bully me and use SJW tactics to shut up dissenters by personally attacking me for my opinion, I will fucking ban you and I will bring my own SJW intimidation tactics to you. Fair is fair.

Now, you can say I'm butthurt and assmad, and there's some truth to that. But only some. Because my real problem is this: We just gave away the White House from 2025 to 2029.

Meanhwhile, Rachel Maddow and CNN are having normal ones.
