I don't think she has it in her to be offensive, but she is no cupcake either - like that bowl of oatmeal, she will stick to your ribs and keep you warm all morning (I took that one too far didn't I?). I just think she would be good for the GOP "brand", a steady hand on the helm, and there is definitely something sweet about the idea of the first female president being a republican....
I think she would follow Trump well in keeping China honest too.
The only aspect of your positive point here about Haley with which I'd disagree is the notion that Trump has somehow done something positive re China, that he's somehow been "keeping China honest".
Nope, a squirrel could have done better.
What he did was expose our vulnerabilities...hey, maybe in the long run we'll learn that we need to have our allies with us, not scrambling to find more reliable allies, and we'll look back at this moment as say : "Thanks Trump; you were an idiot, but at least we know better now".
Could happen...
I do agree that Haley would be clear-eyed about China and would work the problem soberly.
