 # Not To Be Political But Is Anyone Else Kinda Tripping That Nikki Hailey Is Doing So Well ?

I mean, as a chick it makes me feel proud I guess a little?

It's just crazy to my bc like wouldn't feminists be glad? And she's republican too. 

First chick on the republican side doing it. 

Why don't feminists type ppl acknowledge this? 

Also what do you think of her in your opinion and her in comparison to Ron DeSantis?

 I would welcome the idea of a female president, but I’m not big on Nikki Hailey. 

She has previously that she would like it to be banned for people to remain anonymous when they are on social media sites. She since walked back that statement, but since she said it in the first place, it shows what her intentions are. I believe all social media can and should be anonymous if you want it to be.

She also stated previously that the retirement age should be higher, as she believes that it should align with life expectancy. This is something I will not get on board with since retirement is already in your 60’s and life expectancy is only ~77 years.

We need a system where people aren’t wage slaves for almost their entire lives. I’m no communist or socialist, but retirement age increase is not the answer right now.
