GOP electorate in D.C. — where Republicans make up just 5 percent of registered voters — is hardly representative of the conservative base found in most other parts of the country.

I’ve said before, she is the only Republican candidate that will be “allowed” to hear Biden.

And that’s precisely the reason why she is a terrible candidate.

If DC establishment likes her, she bad for the country.

That Politico article reads like the Bee. They really are in an alternate universe!

The D.C. Republican Party reported Haley won 62 percent compared to Trump's 33 percent with only 2,035 voters participating. That makes Haley the first Republican woman to ever win a primary in U.S. history.

However, the former South Carolina governor made a stop at the Madison Hotel Friday after polls opened to rally the district's roughly 23,000 registered Republicans to back her over Trump.

No way, she beat Trump in Washington DC? How is this possible... Those hundreds of thousands of voters really must be... Wait, less than 3000 people voted. And nikki only beat trump by 600 votes. Makes sense..

Didn’t Trump appoint Haley to a position in his cabinet/staff? Why did Trump appoint so many swamp members like Wray, Milley, Bolton, Haley etc? I thought he was going to drain the swamp not add to it?

I couldn't roll my eyes any harder at the these guys. But it does give you a good insight into the minds of the beltway insiders. Even the Republicans look down on you and think they're more rational and informed than the serfs outside the beltway

Among Haley’s supporters on Friday was Dana Milbank, a longtime Washington Post columnist who said he had been a Republican for just a few weeks — when he changed his voter registration in time to cast a vote in the weekend primary.

It was part of an experiment for a piece he’s working on in which Milbank has engaged in activities he said appeal to Republican voters — such as, in his explanation, watching NASCAR races, going to a Hobby Lobby and visiting a gun show.

“I’ve always been a RINO,” Milbank said, when asked how it felt to be a part of the D.C. GOP establishment. “So I feel like I fit right in

This is hilarious.

Nikki. 33 percent of “sophisticated” republicans want someone else but you.
