[–] return2ozma@lemmy.world [S] 10 points 2 years ago (2 children) Nikki Haley's Sudden Wealth Rooted in Weapons Industry, Pro-War Advocacy Network. The former U.N. ambassador went from virtually no savings in 2017 to a small fortune in part from defense contracting and war advocacy ties. https://www.leefang.com/p/nikki-haleys-sudden-wealth-rooted permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] RGB3x3@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago (2 children) Look, no Democrat is saying she'd be great or even close to being better than Biden. But she'd certainly be better than Trump. And if she can split the Republican votes in the general election, even better. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] fadingembers@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 child) SHE HAS THE SAME FASCIST POLICY POSITIONS AS TRUMP.

Why? Bc if Trump wins, the system will just roll over and enforce his whims. The Dems will just accept it, and there likely will never be any more democracy. It will be much harder to force change. However, if Biden wins, the right will not accept it. Either the republicans will attempt to disrupt the election results, or the right will escalate domestic terrorism, etc. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 5 points 2 years ago It's okay to not have opinions on things permalink fedilink source parent [–] aew360@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) I don’t care if she sucks.
