Presidential candidate Nikki Haley has vowed to pardon former US President Donald Trump should she defeat him in the Republican Primary and win against Joe Biden in November. Speaking at a town hall in South Carolina on Sunday (18 February), Haley confirmed that if the former president is found guilty, she would pardon him to unify America. She said: “We’ve got to leave the negativity and the baggage behind. I don’t want this country divided any further. I don’t think it’s in the best interest for America to have an 80-year-old president sitting in jail and having everybody upset about it.” Trump faces several court cases related to election interference, the January 6 riots, and falsifying business records.
She’s trying to position herself for Vice President candidate since it’s becoming clear she can’t win the primary.
Trump already said she would never pick Nancy Pelosi to be his VP.
I don’t understand this comment in this context.
Edit: thanks for explaining!
Trump mixed up Pelosi and Haley in a reference to Jan 6. Not just a single slip up… but a full rant multiple times he said Haley instead of Pelosi.
Thanks! I can’t believe I missed that.
His cognitive decline has caused him to constantly mix up names.
Thanks for explaining!
Np!
