    Did Candidate Haley concede the race? I rather felt this and Trump’s other trial were her endgame win strategy.

      IIRC, Haley suspended her campaign, but has not technically ended it, nor has she endorsed Trump or anyone else. So the few delegates she won will remain pledged to her.

      And if Trump all of a sudden becomes ineligible, then Haley is in a good position as the only other candidate with any delegates. Now, the Supreme Court refused to make Trump ineligible, and it’s become quite clear that Trump will run from jail if it comes to that. So the only way Trump will not get the nomination is if God exercises His Ultimate Veto between now and the convention…

      Me too. I thought she’d hang in there longer on the off-chance orange asshole went to jail.

        Not only would trump run from jail, he would make tiger king his vp candidate so they were both in jail.
