Nikki Haley stood down her campaign but didn’t actually conceed. she’s still technically in the running for president. so i imagine it would default to her
Yeah, my theory for why she stayed in so long was because she was waiting to see if one of his trials caused him to drop out. Also, my understanding is that political parties aren’t obligated to select the candidate primary voters choose, and the leadership could just go into a back room and pick whoever they like.
They can, but they have to weigh it against pissing off their own voting base.
At this point, the whole GOP might be turbo fucked, so they might as well. The plan now may be to hope that the Dems get complacent and tie their own shoelaces together, which has been a reliable strategy in the past.
Yeah, low turnout is basically the only way Republicans win anymore. That’s actually why I’m still pretty worried about Biden’s chances; the way he’s handled Israel is killing enthusiasm in young progressives and (more importantly) Muslims in Michigan.
