Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley on Saturday questioned Donald Trump’s mental fitness after he appeared to confuse her with former House speaker Nancy Pelosi when talking about the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol.
If she manages to get people to hate Trump, there’s a possibility that they won’t go vote at all, since there’s “two bad guys” there.
This decreases how many votes Trump would get but doesn’t decrease how many Biden would get, since, I’d guess, people won’t be deciding between her and Biden, but her and Trump.
That’s not how a two party system works.
It kinda is though.

Isn’t that essentially (one of the reasons) why Hillary lost in 2016? The left was divided between two candidates and neither won.
