Donald Trump’s marketing campaign is reportedly in talks with frenemy Nikki Haley to stage an occasion collectively, amid his poor numbers with ladies voters and common misogyny. And on Friday, Trump was requested on “Fox & Friends” about enlisting Haley, the previous ambassador to the United Nations whom he referred to as “birdbrain.”
“Let me simply inform you,” Trump stated. “Nikki Haley and I fought, and I beat her by 50, 60, 90 points. I beat her in her own state by numbers that nobody’s ever been beaten by. I beat Nikki badly.”
Trump then complained that no one ever asks him about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, Trump’s different primary rival in the course of the Republican presidential primaries.
“And they keep talking about Nikki, Nikki. I like Nikki,” he said. “Nikki, I don’t think she should have done what she did. And that’s fine that she did it. But even in her own state, in South Carolina, where she was the governor, I beat her by a number that nobody ever heard, like 50 points or something.” (For the record, he beat her by 20 factors.)
In the course of the interview, Trump inadvertently fed the narrative of his erratic and seemingly diminishing cognitive state, providing up this unusual set of thought-dots:
TRUMP: After which they are saying, “Oh, when is Nikki coming back in?” And Nikki is in. Nikki helps us already. Nevertheless it’s simply, folks hold saying, “When do you bring—” They do not say whenever you bringing this one. Everyone is in. And Nikki is already in. You understand, she’s out campaigning and Elon Musk is campa— Look, I watched a rocket ship land 4 days in the past.
“FOX & FRIENDS” HOST STEVE DOOCY: That was gorgeous!
Beautiful, certainly!
In Might, when Haley endorsed the person she’d beforehand described as “unstable and unhinged,” it was disappointing however not stunning. Simply as unsurprising was how Trump handled the information—and her—with the identical dismissive, misogynistic condescension that repels the ladies he must vote for him. Nothing has modified.
