Americans for Prosperity, the political arm of the powerful Koch network, formally endorsed Nikki Haley’s presidential campaign on Tuesday, promising to commit its nationwide army of activists — and virtually unlimited funds — to helping Haley defeat former President Donald Trump in the GOP primary contest.

“AFP Action is proud to throw our full support behind Nikki Haley, who offers America the opportunity to turn the page on the current political era, to win the Republican primary and defeat Joe Biden next November,” AFP president and CEO Emily Seidel wrote in a memo announcing the group’s decision.

“She has what it takes to lead a policy agenda to take on our nation’s biggest challenges and help ensure our country’s best days are ahead. With the grassroots and data capability we bring to bear in this race, no other organization is better equipped to help her do it.”

The endorsement may help Haley address one of her biggest strategic liabilities.

      Then it’s a good thing I never said anything about letting the cheaters win. Vote democrat, but never mistake them for saviors. See them only as the crate we push in front of the door to keep the zombies from getting in.

        “… we simply cannot abide by Guardians who refuse to protect us”

        The way you phrase that, it seems like you’re saying to vote for other candidates of other parties. My comment was a reminder that while it would be refreshing to have more options, we have little choice, but to choose those faulty gaurdians

          Ah then let me make this clear, vote for the Democrats, but don’t expect them to do anything unless heavily pressured by a grass roots campaign or something of that nature.
