Nikki Haley is definitely the candidate of choice for Democrats in the Republican primary. If you know anything about Democrat billionaires, then you know the name Reid Hoffmann. He’s the CEO of a huge corporation called LinkedIn. But did you know that that Hoffmann is linked to another wealthy Democrat donor, Jeffrey Epstein? What does Nikki Haley offer people like that?

Daily Caller reports:

Reid Hoffman, one of the Democratic Party’s biggest donors, contributed $250,000 to a pro-Nikki Haley super PAC, The New York Times reported.

Hoffman, who co-founded LinkedIn, has donated tens of millions of dollars to Democrats and liberal-aligned groups in recent years. Hoffman’s quarter-million dollar donation went to the SFA Fund Inc., a pro-Haley committee that has emerged as one of the biggest spenders in the 2024 Republican primary, shelling out more than $33 million to boost Haley, according to the NYT.

Other billionaires have encouraged Democrats to throw their support behind Nikki Haley, citing their opposition to former President Donald Trump. JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon said on Nov. 29 that “even if you’re [a] very liberal Democrat, I urge you, you know, help Nikki Haley too … on the Republican side, that might be better than Trump.”

[…]Hoffman also financed a group that spread anti-Republican misinformation during a 2017 Senate election in Alabama, creating fake Facebook pages intended to split conservative voters and using automated social media accounts to give the illusion that the Republican nominee was being boosted by Russian bots, according to the NYT.

The election was ultimately decided by less than 22,000 votes. Hoffman later apologized for his involvement in the scheme.

Like many wealthy Democrat donors, he’s linked to Jeffrey Epstein:

Hoffman has come under criticism for his past dealings with notorious pedophile Jeffery Epstein.; Hoffman planned to visit Epstein’s private island, Little St. James, twice in 2014, according to documents reviewed by the Wall Street Journal. Epstein also arranged for Hoffman to stay at his Manhattan property overnight in December 2014, with a breakfast party being scheduled for the next morning.

Hoffman confirmed to WSJ that he visited the island one time for a fundraising trip.

In the most recent GOP primary debate, we saw that Nikki Haley opposes banning child sex-change procedures, and banning men from women’s spaces.

And Ron DeSantis is trying to educate voters on Nikki Haley’s past actions on social issues, with ads like this one:

Christian Post reports on the ad:

One clip shows Haley’s appearance on Fox News to discuss how “when I was governor, [the Legislature] wanted to bring in a bathroom bill, a transgender bathroom bill,” which she opposed.

“I strong-armed and said, ‘We are not going to have that in South Carolina,’” she asserted. State laws barring students from entering opposite-sex bathrooms, locker rooms and showers in K-12 schools have become law in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Idaho, Iowa, Kentucky, North Dakota, Oklahoma and Tennessee.

Supporters of such measures point to safety and privacy concerns for female students who’d be forced to share intimate spaces with male students under policies that allow trans-identified individuals to use bathrooms and locker rooms that correspond with their self-declared gender identity rather than their biological sex as the reason for enacting “bathroom bills.”

The issue received particular attention when news broke of the sexual assault of a female student in a girls’ bathroom at a Loudoun County, Virginia, high school at the hands of a biologically male student who identified as “gender-fluid.”

The political ad shows additional footage of Haley telling CBS News, “I think the law should stay out of it” when asked, “What care should be on the table when a 12-year-old child in this country assigned female at birth says, ‘Actually, I feel more comfortable living as a boy.’ And “what should the law allow the response to be?”

The use of the word “care” refers to puberty blockers and opposite-sex hormones and body-mutilating surgeries, including castration and unnecessary mastectomies.

I don’t know who is supporting Nikki Haley in the GOP primary, but I would expect that they are either Democrats, leftists on social issues, or just ignorant about the past positions of the candidates. The first two categories make sense to me. Democrats and leftists like Nikki Haley. What I don’t understand is how people who claim to be conservatives would think that you pick a candidate without knowing their past record of actions and achievements. Surely, in the most powerful nation in the world, we can expect people to decide elections based on facts, not feelings.
