GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley said Sunday she “absolutely” trusts the jury in E. Jean Carroll defamation case against former President Trump but that the recent ruling should not bar him from the ballot. “I absolutely trust the jury. And I think that they made their decision based on the evidence. I just don’t think that should take him off the ballot,” Haley said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “I think the American people will take him off the ballot. I think that’s the best way to go forward, is not let him play the victim.

This is a small woman. She is totally unqualified for any political position, much less president. She is the “b” word.

It's a total crock and she knows it. But she doesn't care since it's an attempt to advance the Uniparty agenda by taking Trump out of contention for the presidency.

She's trying to pull an obama where he got his opponent disqualified. That's how he won his first election. They're still trying it.

It's not like I needed any more reasons not to support Nikki Haley but this is just political suicide...unless she's counting on democrats to drag her RINO butt over the primary finish line.

Sounds like she is fully on board with the lynching. Without evidence, they pronounced him guilty.

Will, nikki, please explain the entire litigation and its outcome to me, because I don't understand it and it looks sketchy.
So, until you explain away the litigation sketchiness to me, you look sketchy; too sketchy to be an honest leader providing opportunity to all and not just for your paymasters.
Explain your position.

When I was asked to serve as juror, questions were asked to make certain I didn't have a bias. In remembering the questions I was asked, I absolutely disagree with the conflict of interest with lawyer and judge. Secondly, Nikki Haley, I have a problem with a criminal complaint being tried in a civil court trial. Donald Trump did not get to defend himself in 1994, 1995, or 1996 depending on which year it happened. I thought I had been reading it happened in 1996 but then I found elsewhere 1994. E. Jean Carroll decides years later that it was rape?
I guess maybe I could take out a civil lawsuit against my stepfather many years later for his behavior?
Parents who are telling their children it is okay to have sex before marriage are setting their kids up for people like E. Jean Carroll especially males. . .

She just demonstrated how corrupt she is. She should read some news instead of just accepting what would be convenient to her.

#1, I will assume "the "b" word" you are referring to is OP's "birdbrain", which does seem to fit the bill.
Or is there another "b" word you use for women with whom you disagree?

Wow. Just Wow.
As I understand it Trump was never criminally found guilty of Rape.
Probably because it never happened and they could not prove it did in criminal court.
So they got to trial in a civil case and won $5 million dollars. Trump called this woman a liar.
Trump has never been convicted of Rape.
If they cannot prove it, it's a lie. IMO
If they have proof charge him. They don't have it, Just this woman's word, which IMO should not be worth a quarter. Much less 80 Millions of dollars.

How utterly stupid can she be?
Does she believe - - for a nanosecond - - that the demonrats wouldn't go as viciously after her - - if she ever got the nomination? Does she really believe that she's making "friends" with the evil and corrupt demonrats - - by attacking President Trump?
President Trump calls her "birdbrain" - - but that's really an insult to birds.

I have never understood how you can not be found criminally guilty (in other words, you didn't do the crime), yet somehow you can be found civilly liable. How can you be liable for something you did not do? Haley, your blind ambition is showing.

Says all you need to know about her judgement.
That she, and many other Republicans, can't see the juries in NY and DC are extremely BIASED, that the prosecutions against Trump aren't political, shows they aren't paying attention, or willfully not wanting to know.
She probably still thinks the Steele Dossier was truthful too.

She isn't in to win. She's in to make Trump lose. She knows she won't be president no matter what happens.
She's the tip of the spear of uniparty power play.
She couldn't even get close in a primary where the other side crossed over to vote for her.

Oh, so she believes the patently illegal lawfare. That makes Nikki an un-American idiot, totally unacceptable for any kind of political power. Night, night, Nikki. Don't go away mad, just go. And take George W. with you. Effing globalists.

Tech oligarch Reid Hoffman has financially supported both Haley's Presidential campaign and Carroll's lawsuit. One sock-puppet from Hoffman's anti-Trump toybox is endorsing the other.

She would "absolutely trust" a jury that based its travesty of a decision on hearsay, without a shred of evidence?
