Nikki Haley doesn’t get it. The majority of Republicans love former President Donald Trump. My own time this last week at the annual CPAC gathering made it crystal clear that the thousands of conservatives in attendance were not just supporting Trump — they were enthusiastically supporting Trump. And that was before the South Carolina primary‚ where Haley‚ former governor of the state‚ was soundly defeated by Trump in her own backyard. Not to mention that Trump has won every primary he has entered — and she has lost every primary she has entered. Then there were the humiliating results out of Nevada‚ as reported in Politico: Worse than you can imagine: Haley loses to ‘none of these candidates’ in Nevada The defeat‚ while symbolic‚ was a major embarrassment for the former South Carolina governor. One would think that a rational‚ observant person would realize her campaign is going nowhere and gracefully withdraw and support the winner. That was exactly what Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis did‚ and one can be sure that in four years he will be able to try again. Which‚ one suspects‚ is exactly what he has in mind. But not Haley. Worse for her still‚ Haley has made crystal clear that her primary goal in running is to appease the failing old Washington Establishment. As Haley repeatedly says of Trump‚ as recently in Michigan: The problem is chaos literally follows him. We can’t be a country in disarray‚ in a world on fire‚ and go through four more years of chaos‚ we won’t survive. Which is shorthand for her devotion to the same old‚ same old. The very last thing Washington needs is a president who goes out of his or her way to appease the denizens of the Swamp with the mantra that things have always been done this way and that to bring serious change is “chaos.” Which is exactly what Haley is doing. READ MORE from Jeffrey Lord: Truckers Target Trump-Hating New York Judge It is exactly Trump’s view that Washington must be seriously reworked. There is‚ to cite but one example‚ no excuse for a massive federal bureaucracy where the employees‚ once in‚ have a lifetime job. They need to be term limited‚ with real and constant turnover to bring in new blood and fresh thinking to run the government. Only if one thinks like the Swamp — which is precisely the way Haley thinks — would rethinking how the government operates and doing something about it be seen as “chaos.” And right there is exactly the reason Haley’s campaign has been a “no sale” with Republican voters. The voters want serious change; Haley campaigns on a promise of more of the same. She has also gone after Trump for demanding that America’s NATO allies pay their NATO bills. Haley is apparently clueless that one of the founding fathers of NATO — Gen. and later President Dwight Eisenhower — had exactly the same view of NATO allies as does Trump. As previously noted in this space‚ Eisenhower biographer historian Stephen Ambrose reported this in his two-volume Eisenhower biography: When [Gen.] Gruenther passed along some more European criticism‚ Eisenhower began to lose his temper. “I get weary of the European habit of taking our money‚” the President wrote‚ “resenting any slight hint as to what they should do‚ and then assuming‚ in addition‚ full right to criticize us as bitterly as they may desire. In fact‚ it sometimes appears that their indulgence in this kind of criticism varies in direct ratio to the amount of help we give them.” In fact‚ the whole thing made him mad as hell‚ and “makes me wonder whether the Europeans are as grown up and mature as they try to make it appear.” Apparently Nikki Haley would have disagreed with not only President Trump but President Eisenhower as well. Telling. The long ago 1960s Speaker of the California Legislature‚ then-Gov. Ronald Reagan’s opposite number and boss of the California Democratic Party‚ Jesse Unruh‚ famously observed that “money is the mother’s milk of politics.” Indeed‚ it is. This week’s news brings this headline: Conservative megadonors Koch not funding Haley anymore as she continues longshot bid Which is to say that Haley’s “mother’s milk” is starting to evaporate. Taken altogether‚ it is now crystal clear that Nikki Haley and her campaign are fading into irrelevance. One of the very first tasks of a successful presidential campaign is to prove the candidate’s viability. And every day that Haley continues her campaign the realization that she simply is not viable increases. A realization underlined by her 20-point rejection in her own home state. The best thing she could do now? Follow the DeSantis model — gracefully withdraw and endorse President Donald Trump. Will she do it? One suspects not. Instead‚ she is choosing to campaign against the millions of Trump-supporting conservatives who make up the GOP electorate. Indeed‚ she appears to want to go out of her way to irritate or anger them. Which‚ in turn‚ is winding up as the self-immolation of a once-promising political career as Nikki Haley fades to irrelevance.

At last‚ the news we were waiting for! The headline in the Washington Post reads: “White House reverses West Bank policy‚ calling Israeli settlements illegal.” Like the border‚ like inflation‚ like Russia‚ when President Joe Biden entered office in 2021‚ the Middle East was quiet.  READ MORE from Shmuel Klatzkin: The American People Know the Real Hamas Biden made a great show on entering office of destroying any policy identified with Trump‚ regardless of the consequences for the country. And‚ so‚ we have the marked improvements on the border‚ inflation‚ and Russia for which these Biden years are so noted. When it comes to brilliant improvement‚ let’s not forget the Middle East as well. Here‚ too‚ genius was at work. Biden immediately resumed funding the U.N. and the UNRWA‚ whose employees were seen only recently in October furthering the aims of peace by carrying bodies of murdered Israelis to Gaza to hold for ransom and other such acts of high civilization. This on top of their other actions for which Biden with a keenly critical sense at last has rewarded them: teaching to a new generation hatred of Jews (that’s no doubt fine as the Jews are chosen people for special low status in the intersectionality hierarchy) and using their schools for stockpiling weapons and as rocket launching sites against Israel (perhaps those are the rockets Hamas regularly sends out first to gently warn Israeli civilians to get to their safe place).  Another act of high statesmanship in this region was his immediately taking the Houthis off the terrorist list‚ which immediately brought the Houthis forth as agents of peace. As a result‚ they are today active agents for peace‚ stopping capitalist/imperialist ships from traversing the seas. And let us not forget the immortal strategic retreat in Afghanistan‚ which‚ in seeming to be an utter disaster‚ made America humble and loveable again to the Taliban and every other former enemy in the region‚ lifting our prestige immensely and furthering the cause of peace. But one thing was lacking. Perhaps because of the natural caution that so distinguishes a true statesman‚ Secretary of State Antony Blinken did not announce an immediate change in overall policy about Israel‚ along with the other improvements we have noted. But the horrible mess that the Pompeo doctrine had wrought cried out for rectification. After all‚ by recognizing Israel’s right to the Golan Heights and repudiating the idea that the West Bank territories‚ land that never been recognized as belonging to any country since the British mandate‚ should be free of Jews — why‚ that was a disgrace! And the peace that resulted from it‚ in which five Muslim nations signed treaties with Israel — what could have been more disgraceful than that? It contradicted the cherished principle that the key to peace lay in the hands of the Palestinians‚ who unilaterally could determine what conditions could lead to the end of the war they began in the 1920s and have continued to this day. Yet‚ with greatest self-control‚ and in the interest of a sane continuity‚ Blinken held back until the most opportune moment when his actions could be most meaningful. And history has been kind — what better way to use American clarity and the powerful arm of our diplomacy then to crown the efforts of the freedom fighters who massacred‚ raped‚ and kidnapped their way through Israel on Oct. 7 than by using the aftermath of their redemptive orgiastic spree to declare the act of Jews settling in their ancient homeland as criminal? For the creed of the woke states that apartheid is only wrong when committed by the wrong people. How glorious it would be to add the West Bank to the long list of Middle Eastern lands at last free of Jews! America might at last atone for its sins of promoting and defending a democratic state in which everyone’s freedom of religion is protected‚ and all have full political rights. At last‚ we reward the onslaught of people whose higher position in Holy Intersectionality makes them always right. At last‚ continuity has been established with the transformative policies of Obama‚ who saved Iran from the peril its nuclear program was in‚ who graciously helped ISIS realize ancient aspirations‚ and whose last act of farsighted foreign policy at the end of December 2016 was to guarantee passage of a Security Council resolution recognizing that Judaism’s most holy site‚ the Temple Mount‚ was exclusively Islamic property‚ and that Israel’s stewardship of that area so that both Jews and Muslims had full access was nothing short of criminal. Now we can relax. Surely‚ expelling Jews is the way to go to attain peace. This will clearly be seen positively by all the partners for peace in the region‚ who have long acknowledged that this policy should be established‚ as the catchy phrase goes‚ “from the river to the sea.” It has been far too long that American policy was run on a practical results basis‚ so clearly an oppressor construct. Our institutions of higher education have led the way‚ showing that correct narrative and correct ideology are the only things that matter to achieve the utopia we dream of. Now Blinken has at last brought correct ideology and the proper narrative back to where it belongs. No doubt‚ this will be among the crowning achievements of an administration noted for success in all it does.
