Is Haley still in this because of her ego / liberal + corporate donors / she thinks Trump will somehow be disqualified, thus forcing chuds to vote for her in November?
i feel like she’s hedging her bets. She wants to be Mitt Romney, but isn’t quite good at it. I feel like she wants to be a liberal darling, one of the good conservatives who stood up to big mean Trump. If Biden wins, she’ll run for a lower office or gun for a cabinet position. If Trump wins, she’ll get book deals and CNN spots for years.
I think she’s hedging her bets on Trump dying of a heart attack sometime before November. I mean, why not stay in the race? It’s not like Trump dying is unlikely.
if that’s the case she’s really fooling herself believing the republican establishment will pick her. They’ll just do something goofy at the convention and give the nomination to Eric Trump or Don Jr. The hogs would eat that up.
My Occam’s razor answer is that it’s an ego thing. Her ego must be the size of a small city. Not only that - she has an army of insanely overly-paid sycophants providing her with advice and “data” that show she’s got a shot at winning. She well knows they have a huge incentive to lie to her. The longer she stays in the race - the more money they make. But denial (in this case self-deception) can be as powerful as love even though nobody writes songs about it.

Hey using a crystal ball is cheating.

At this point it’s just betting a bunch of other people’s money that Trump’s body will shut down before the election
