      I think the only way she has a shot is if Trump dies. There’s absolutely no way he drops out at any point and I don’t think there’s a mechanism to remove him from being a candidate before the election. Secretary’s of state are really hesitant about removing him via 14th amendment. He’s going to bring in 20-30 percent of the electorate no matter what.

      You’re forgetting the abortion issue, which is a massive voting booster for Democrats who run on the pro-choice platform.

      Even if Haley came out and said she supports bodily autonomy, she still has the baggage of being a Republican and a woman, the party historically against female bodily autonomy and women in positions of power. Ultimately, she’d only wind up losing the fundigelicals to Trump, DeSantis, or Vivek.

      She doesn’t have a shot, if Biden can lean into expanding abortion access next year.
