You nailed it.

Im surprised someone hasn't put a bullet in Lindsey Graham yet. He's a bent wristed, feminine little putz with a hair lip, who gives the male species a bad name.

We oughta send him and John McCain and the other two to Syria to patrol the streets of Aleppo in an unarmored Humvee.

Trump needs to wake up and surround himself with the people who fought for him from day one.

I see immediately where this is going. Republican voters generally prefer governors (although this sure was a change up) because of chief executive experience. The knock againt this is that they have no foreign experience.

Here is a very successful and likable governor who wil now have a wealth of foreign policy experience.

If you want to know who the first woman president will be, I think you know now. And I would not be surprised if Trump declines a second term and she runs in for years.

Mark this thread and bump it in four.
I've lived in South Carolina for 59 years. Nikki is a political shark who's only interest is her own political status. That is the sole reason she got involved in taking down the Confederate Flag in front of the State house - she smelled national news cameras.

Henry McMaster, who will succeed her, is a friend of Cheeto Benito. Nikki is not. She did not support him for president, and they had a short Twitter war. When she was asked about being a possible VP with Trump, she made a statement that she would stay in SC and do the job she was elected to do.

It's like a game of pool. You always want to leave yourself set up for your next shot. With Nikki out of the way at the UN, McMaster will finish her term and be able to run as an incumbent who supports Trump. Once she is no longer governor she is entirely disposable, and Trump can dump her on the street at any time.

The UN post may be the end of her political career. We can only hope.

You mean politicians never set themselves for their next goal? That's weird.

Funny how in all these complaints, nobody really has anything bad on Nikki. Taking down the flag isn't much of a concern for 90% of the population.

A couple of reasons spring to mind.
Ok.. You're backing up the facts.. Where's the fact and where's your backup?

Well, a woman POTUS is long over due. We can't just rush into electing one willy nilly and nominate the first corrupt old hag that forces herself on us. We did that with a black POTUS and he was a complete screw up. Better to wait and get the right one that isn't doomed to fail and pass on the losers.

Maybe it was his white side that did all the screwing up!

Y'gotta wonder about these drama queens who apparently think assasination was a good thing. While we're at it, why not bring back dueling?

Probably just another Mook. Going. His. Own. Way.

Why not those who wish to start the wars lead the charge into battle. You sound like the same bent wrist putz that Lindsey brings to mind.
