Yeah, seems like she’s confusing symptoms and causes. Trump isn’t causing the hateful rhetoric so much as his rise to political prominence is a symptom of the preexisting hate on the Right.

And Haley walks back her remarks in 10, 9, 8, 7 . . .

Seriously…that is exactly what’s happening here! It’s mind-blowing! “Trump’s racist rhetoric inspired shootings like the one we had here in SC. But, that’s still better than a democrat in the white house!!” I mean…really, Governor Haley? Really?

“I know what that rhetoric can do,” Haley said in a Thursday interview with the Associated Press. “I saw it happen.”
Despite their differences, Haley has said she will support Trump as her party’s nominee.
If cognitive dissonance was lethal, Nimrata would be lying on a slab in a Charleston morgue by now.

The only difference is that Trumpet isn’t doing it in Mitt’s quiet rooms.

This is a good point. On the other hand, I looked at a HuffPo story to-day about “Hillary’s Poll Problems” and noted two things…writing emphasizing the “we-got-problems-in-Hillaryland” theme …and a graph which actually showed an upward trend for Hill

How is it that the Party of Lincoln continually makes the Nazis look like ice-cream truck drivers?

For the same reason that only an idiot would think that I have anything in common with the Biblical Joseph because we both have the same name?
No, that is too much of a contradiction.

It’s still a pretty bold statement for a Repug to link the two.
Sounds like Haley, McConnell and a few others are trying to get the NeverTrump band back together.

Some enterprising reporter needs to ask her if that’s a bug or a feature.

They’re all self loathing Log Cabin Republicans now.
Yeah…I liked the latest Reuters poll earlier today…she is now up 9 points vs. Trump in that one. And this is still before Sanders finally gives up the ghost.

I am afraid that the very conservative but racially sensitive Haley represents the beginnings of the new Republican party that is going to grow out of Trump’s ashes.
Whoa. That was a pretty bold statement. It will be interesting to see what she will say when walking back that statement.

Party over country, indeed. When Haley and other brown-skinned people and all women are ridiculed and subjugated by the words of the man she intends to vote for, I don’t know what any of us can do to educate people about what the word “patriot” is supposed to really mean.

They were hoping and dreaming that once he got the nomination, that for some unknown reason, if they all got behind him, he would settle down and be be “normal”. Because leopards often change their spots.
His latest serious of rants against republican governors, the PGA and the judge presiding over 2 of his Trump U cases dashed those dreams completely.
Now their bigger fear is coming true…that Hillary will be (rightly) perceived as a vastly better President, and that Trump isn’t just the lesser or two evils…he is overwhelmingly unqualified.
