My Dear America:
I am extremely Disappointed but not Really Surprised That after a lengthy Campaign of telling the Truth about the fact that Donald Trump is "Unhinged" and Unqualified to be President, Nikki Haley has looked at the two Candidates for President and has chosen to be voting for Donald Trump over Joe Biden.
During Haley's longer than the rest of the Republican Candidates Campaign in which she fought hard to earn the votes and respect of Republican voters, her Candidacy showed in nearly every Primary contest that there was a significant number of Republican Voters who were clearly unsatisfied enough with Donald Trump that they voted for Haley. Haley made it clear throughout her Presidential Campaign that although she had worked for Trump as his American Representative at the United Nations that she was not in the Trump Camp anymore. Trump responded to her independence by belittling, reviling and disrespecting her and reveling in her Primary losses.
It seemed to me as though there was at least somewhat of a chance that Haley might actually do the right thing and support Joe Biden for President. After all, as she made clear during her Presidential Campaign she recognized just how Weird and Unusual it was for Donald Trump when he was the American President to be a Super Fan of a number of Brutal World Dictators including Vladimir Putin and not really a fan of a number of our Country's closest NATO and other Allied Countries. During her campaign Haley brought out this concern about support for our allies and Trump's misguided allegiances to Autocrats.
To be fair I have to say that during the Republican Primary Debates that I watched Haley was one of the few Republicans Running who called out not just Joe Biden about the National Debt but also called out Donald Trump and even pointed out how much more Trump contributed to the National Debt than Biden. The longer the Primary contest went on the more Haley moved away from the Trump Camp. When Trump had virtually driven out all of the rest of the Republican Challengers from the Primary's Nikki Haley still remained and the Campaign discussions between Haley and Trump got very heated and nasty on both their parts.
I really don't understand how Haley could have said what she said over and over about Trump's tremendous flaws and then justify supporting him over Biden. It is discouraging to see how she stood up to Trump's withering criticism of her and, indeed, her husband in the Military who Trump also disrespected, and can now put that behind her and get on board the Trump Train.
But Nikki Haley is only one of a number of former Trump Challengers and Critics who have seen the light. One only has to look at the disturbingly weird spectacle that has been taking place at the New York City Court House where the "Red Tie Brigade" of Republican Syncophants are lining up to rail against the American Justice System that has been working against their Fuhrer.
Those of us who have been waiting for the majority of the Republican Party to Wake up and Smell the treason better wake up ourselves. We are running out of chances to save Democracy and Democracy is running out of chances to save us.
Our Supreme Court is Corrupted. Our Justice System has also been corrupted by the many unqualified Candidates for Judgeships that the Republicans slipped by us during the Trump Administration. The Congress is Corrupted by the likes of Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, Matt Gaetz, Paul Gosar, Mike Johnson and others. And Certainly if Donald Trump is Re Elected we will be living in a Dictatorship not only on Day One but on Every Day of our lives.
Nikki Haley could have continued on working on her Profile In Courage but instead she has produced a final Profile in Corruption. It is certainly unlikely that Donald Trump will be welcoming her back into the MAGA Fold any time soon but if she continues to Grovel sufficiently then maybe the Fuhrer might let her back into power. Clearly Haley is hoping to be admitted to the halls of power again but I think that her sick and disgusting caving to her party over her country will echo through the future history books if, in fact, we have a true history that will be allowed in future years to be written down and read by all Americans.
I just hope that all of those Nikki Haley Voters who voted their displeasure with Donald Trump will not do what Haley did and simply vote for Trump because every Republican is required to. Think for yourself Haley Voters. Yes, it is discouraging what Haley is doing but it will be much more discouraging if Donald Trump is elected once again. Trump has been and continues to be clear about what he has in mind for all of us if he wins again and It is not a pretty picture. In fact, it is a very ugly picture in store for us in another Trump Administration.
We are truly in some very dark times these days but as long as Joe Biden is President we have a chance to turn things around.
Every Democrat eligible to vote needs to vote.
Every Reasonable Republican needs to vote, as well.
And Every Independent also needs to vote.
We all need to vote to save our Democracy.
This is no time to waste in internal squabbling in the Democratic Party.
Time is running out for America. She is presently on Life Support and when November comes she will either survive as a Democracy or we will watch her become a Dictators Paradise.
I choose Democracy. I hope you do too.
But time is running out. We need to batten down the hatches because whatever happens in November Trump and his followers are going to claim if he loses that the Election was rigged. We need to recognize that if we want to preserve Democracy we need to be willing to fight for it or it will be gone, possibly forever. Voting for President has never been as important as it is today.
VOTE like your Life and your Country's life depends on it. Because it does.
Don't wait until you see smoke rising from the Death Camps Brothers and Sisters because by then it will be too late.
Sincerely Yours
Jerry Gallagher
