This is the best summary I could come up with:


Ambassador Nikki Haley no longer feels bound by a pledge made to the Republican National Committee that she would support the GOP presidential nominee, she said in an interview that aired Sunday.

Asked by NBC News’ “Meet the Press” moderator Kristen Welker, “So you’re no longer bound by that pledge?” Haley responded that she was not obligated to endorse former President Donald Trump if he becomes the Republican nominee.

Asked why abortion shouldn’t be a decision made by people and their doctors, Haley argued that the issue should be decided at the state level.

Her remarks come after the Alabama Supreme Court last month decided that embryos are people, making access to IVF uncertain in that state.

Just days later, Alabama’s House and Senate passed Republican-proposed bills intended to protect IVF.

Last week, Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, R-Miss., blocked legislation that would have created federal protections for IVF nationwide, calling the measure “vast overreach.”


The original article contains 792 words, the summary contains 153 words. Saved 81%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

I am pretty confident we can all guess how that would go. Still, I don’t think we live in the world where that question needs to be asked. I am totally fine with Republican candidates wasting their money but that seems to be all she’s accomplishing by staying in the race at this point.

It’s the Koch Bros. money she’s wasting, not her own. I’m happy to let her separate those assholes from their money for as long as possible.

Too late for that. She already said she would vote for him even if he was convicted of a felony. Sure she could have changed her mind, but it’s not like that Trump got suddenly and substantially worse since the summer. (He’s been terrible for a long time now)

She already said she’d pardon him so this means nothing.
