Told you
Nikki Haley is campaigning now for 2028. She knows Trump loses this year. Nikki knows she has the whole 2024 GOP primary to herself, and she is now campaigning for 2028, against Kamala Harris
And yea, with Nikki in 2028, we do get President Kamala Harris! I like that... :-)

@tomiahonen I think Nikki is more concerned that Biden will win and then have to step down. I doubt she’s thinking that far ahead.
@AlliFlowers No, Nikki is definitely thinking that far. She has known when she stepped down from UN Ambassador post in 2018 that Trump goes to prison and has been planning her run for 2028 ever since. She knew this cycle was lost. She would refuse the nomination if they gave it to her this year. It was always about 2028 and she has known since Biden picked Harris, that our side send in Kamala Harris for 2028. She IS that calculating yes
@tomiahonen I’m just unwilling to give her that much credit.
@AlliFlowers BTW I had never thought of this yet, until this very moment with you Dr F, the next race 2028 will feature the two second-place finishers to Trump facing off, ie Ted Cruz and Nikki Haley. Ted will beat her but it will be close..
@tomiahonen A lot can happen in 4 years. Thinks happen awful fast these days.
@tomiahonen I didn’t mean that to sound as Ferris Beuhler as it did.
@AlliFlowers well, everybody needs a day off :-)
@AlliFlowers I am the best forecaster in this business. When other pundits said Trump won't run, I said of course he will. When others said Death Santis was the big challenger I said he won't be. He is out. I even said Nikki will beat DeSantis and she already has. So you should take my analysis of 2028 more seriously the next time. Cruz is the clear front-runner and Nikki knows this, that is why she is playing this empty field now to her best advantage. She will give Ted a strong run next time
@tomiahonen So, just slightly off topic…do you see Trump doing any jail time?
@AlliFlowers jail time I am not sure but hoping we see that too. Prison, absolutely definitely Trump is convicted in each of these 4 criminal trials of this year, gets convicted in at least 2 likely 3 still this year (1 maybe 1 of 4 extend to next year by verdict). Each of 4 get sentencing to prison. MY count of Trump prison time is no longer relevant as Trump's OWN lawyers told Trump he gets 561 years out of the 712.5 years he is facing. So prison most def, jail am not sure but hope also
@tomiahonen Sharing this with @sheilasmall so her blood pressure can come down.
@AlliFlowers LOL yeah really fast indeed :-)
