I’ve been watching the GOP Primary closely for a while now, and I like various aspects of several candidates - Republicans like President @realDonaldTrump, Governor @RonDeSantis, and @VivekGRamaswamy.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy I’m interested in the ideas of some independents too, such as @RobertKennedyJr.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr As I look over the field, I don’t think I yet have a first choice, but I do know one thing: count me in as #NeverNikki!

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr Based on her record and campaign, I don’t see how any thoughtful or informed libertarian or conservative should vote for @NikkiHaley. If you agree, let your voice be heard.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley Go to today so we can let her and everyone else know she doesn’t have your support. If you’re unsure, keep reading and following.nevernikki.net

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley .@NikkiHaley supports Biden and McConnell and the forever-war crowd on funding for the war in Ukraine.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley Her thirst for war is so strong she actually said: "I'm sick of talking about a Department of Defense. I want a Department of Offense." #NeverNikki

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley She even personally received millions of dollars from the arms merchants who benefit from the war, a conflict of interest that undergirds her eagerness for foreign military intervention.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley This position isn’t new either - as governor of South Carolina she gave tax dollars to those same arms merchants, and they showered her with campaign contributions and a seat on their board when she left office. ➡️ Nevernikki.net

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley While most others were decrying the mistakes of the past 20 years, and fighting for an America First foreign policy, @NikkiHaley was aligning herself with and declaring her foreign policy allies to be John McCain and Lindsey Graham.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley .@NikkiHaley believes in nearly unlimited foreign aid — we have sent over $100 BILLION we don’t have to Ukraine already and she wants more. But this also isn’t new.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley In her book With All Due Respect, she wrote “Humanitarian Assistance will always be a priority for the United States, we will always be generous.”

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley But @NikkiHaley’s “generosity” with your tax dollars and her support for all foreign aid in the context of a $34 TRILLION dollar debt is in no way libertarian or conservative. Nevernikki.net

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley Beyond the issues of endless wars, @NikkiHaley’s lack of respect for freedom of speech is shocking to anyone who believes in the constitution.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley .@NikkiHaley believes that all internet posters should be registered and verified. This flies in the face of a free American Republic whose founders wrote anonymously the Federalist Papers and routinely posted newspaper articles and pamphlets under Pseudonyms.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley Anyone who doesn’t fully believe in free speech or who wants endless wars has no business anywhere near the White House. Go to to show you agree!nevernikki.net

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley But wait, there’s more.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley .@NikkiHaley routinely praised the mission of the United Nations, the results they achieved, and the people who ran it.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley First up, her quote “I believe the U.N. does valuable work.” By that she means your tax dollars since the US is the primary funder of UN.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley She repeatedly praised the U.N. Secretary General (former president of Socialist International) and declared that they “think alike."

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley Did I mention that I am #NeverNikki? ➡️ nevernikki.net

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley .@NikkiHaley disagreed with President Trump’s decision to pull U.S. troops out of Syria and Afghanistan and defended continued U.S. presence in both places.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley If you want to move quickly to domestic policy, in South Carolina, @NikkiHaley advocated for a gas tax hike, a state-run vaccine registry and never lifted a finger for school choice.

@realDonaldTrump @RonDeSantis @VivekGRamaswamy @RobertKennedyJr @NikkiHaley I am #NeverNikki and I hope you will be too. ➡️ nevernikki.net
