Centrists: It's not all Republicans that support extremist candidates, there's still lots of non-extremists in the party!

Iowa caucus: Trump 51.0% DeSantis 21.2% Haley 19.1% Ramaswamy 7.7%

Leaving 1.0% or less that don't support an extremist candidate

I read on here a few days ago about Haley being representative of the LEAST extreme. That many of her voters would just end up voting Biden, even though they don't agree with most of the politics.

I could almost give them benefit of the doubt. Anyone ignorant enough to call Biden socialist though is immediately not worth talking to

Haley? As in Nikki "slavery wasn't a cause of the Civil War" Haley? Nikki "six week abortion ban" Haley? Nikki "withdraw the US from the Human Rights Council because of its 'chronic bias against Israel'" Haley?

Nikki "saying everything she thinks GOP wants to hear to get elected" Haley, yes.

I think Republicans are all selfish assholes, but the ones who are willing to avoid having trump as president can at least read

I mean, 75,000 less people voted overall than in the 2016 caucus. Granted most of those probably died of covid or just didn't want to go in the cold, but still...
