Nikki Haley to end presidential campaign, ceding GOP nomination to Trump

Vermont. ::)
An open primary state where she, most likely, got a lot of Democrat crossover.

True.
I know a moderate liberal in VT. She voted for Nikki in the primary and said she might even vote for her over Biden in the general if she got the nomination. But if Trump gets it, she will absolutely vote for Biden.
Damn. I wish November would get here sooner. It's truly a matter of life or death for our economy. Dragging it out is like watching my younger brother as he slowly and painfully died from Cancer.

Exactly!

I'm still trying to find someone that is supporting Biden and wants 4 more years of what the past three have given us. I want them to explain to me what Biden has accomplished, and why they want more of this.
So far, nothing.

Here is a response to that question that I found on another forum. I was thinking I was in the joke thread.
In the Biden presidency so far:
11 million jobs have been created, including 750,000 manufacturing jobs
The unemployment rate is at a 50-year record low. Today, there are more people working in America than ever before.
A record number of small businesses have started
The CHIPS and Science law was passed. It's described as "a bipartisan law that invests in domestic semiconductor manufacturing, improves our domestic supply chains, boosts economic competition with China, & has created more than 100,000 new American jobs.” This is seen as a generational investment in American industry and manufacturing.
The cost of prescription drugs was lowered by allowing Medicare to negotiate for lower prescription drug costs.
The cost of insulin for seniors was capped at $35 per month.
The infrastructure act was passed to rebuild roads, bridges, power and water infrastructure and extend broadband access
The first major gun safety legislation in nearly 30 years was passed, closing the "boyfriend loophole"
The number of Americans without health insurance is now 6 million lower than before the pandemic
Legislation was passed creating a minimum 15% tax rate for billion-dollar corporations
The Inflation Reduction Act was passed, which is investing in clean energy around the country and creating new good-paying jobs. It also capped prescription drug prices to $2,000 per year for seniors on Medicare.
The American Rescue Plan act was passed to protect workers' pensions, lowered insurance premiums for millions of lower-income families, provided funds for affordable housing, public safety and crime reduction, support for small businesses, expanded child care programs, invested in mental health and health care centers around the US, and supported families with children.
The Bipartisan Safer Communities Act was passed, providing incentives for states to pass red-flag laws, prevent people convicted of domestic abuse from owning firearms, expands background firearm checks for people between the ages of 18 and 21, and allocated funds for mental health programs for young people.
Biden issued an executive order raising standards for law-enforcement agencies, with particular emphasis on use-of-force policies, availability of body cameras and recruitment and retention of officers.
Biden signed a bill to help veterans who have been suffering from the effects of burn pits.
Biden ended the war in Afghanistan.
Biden signed the Postal Service Reform Act to modernize and stabilize the US Postal Service and maintain mail 6 days a week, focusing on improved delivery rates.
Biden reestablished respect for America around the world.
America rejoined the Paris Agreement on climate change.
Biden almost single-handedly rebuilt NATO by bringing together nations to support Ukraine.
NATO has been expanded by the inclusion of Finland and, imminently, Sweden.
The budget of the IRS has been boosted by $80 billion to catch tax cheats.
Biden created more jobs in one year (6.6 million) than any other president in US history.
Reauthorized the Violence Against Women Act through 2027.
Biden reduced the cost of gas by releasing oil from the National Strategic Reserve. The Reserve is now being refilled at lower prices than the gas was sold for.
Biden nominated the first Black woman to the US Supreme Court.
Biden pardoned all federal offenses of simple marijuana possession.
Inflation has been lowered while maintaining a strong economy.
The recession that just about everyone was certain was going to happen didn't happen.
If another Biden term means more accomplishments like these, then I'm all for it. And remember, a lot of these accomplishments happened in the face of a hostile Congress and a former president trying his best to prevent any accomplishments from happening just so he could campaign on that.
-
But I can't find anyone who can articulate any Biden accomplishments. The list you posted is from a Biden sourced campaign literature, which very few have read (and it's all fantasy).
I can ask a conservative on why they are voting Trump, and they can rattle off many reasons (factual) why they support him. When I ask a democrat why they are supporting Biden, all I get is "I hate Trump", but when I ask them to name Biden accomplishments, I get a blank stare.

Has stacy abrams announced her new cab8net now that she can claim victory in the presidential race?
Once she didn’t get to be queen, or governor, being President would be a nice consolation prize.
