Say a genie tells you that the 2024 election will be won by either Nikki Haley or Josh Hawley and you get to choose which one of them wins, who would you choose.


I would obviously choose Haley

With American politicians it comes down to who's less likely to start a war, which is the most immediate threat to my life and the lives of people in the developing world. Both have records that suggest they would be warmongers. I guess Haley is the devil we know, though.

Haley because she’s less censorship-happy.

Hawley is basically a fascist, so Haley.

I can't imagine any rationale for having a preference here.

Curious what in Hawley's record suggests this, as lower propensity to start a war is one of my biggest reasons for preferring him to Haley. (Or rather, Hawley strikes me as an intense nationalist, so if he's starting a war, I'm more inclined to think it will be for appropriate reasons.)

I strongly suspect your "appropriate reasons" would not sit at all well with Anarcho-Statism if the situation were to arise.

This. He correctly states that the unipolar world is gone and proposes more military presence abroad (particularly in Asia) to "counter malign Chinese influence", which means I'm dead in a ditch in Iran:

That's not to say Haley or Biden or Harris wouldn't do the same. Whether it's unilateral or multilateral, you're fighting wars all the same.

Though I don't really like either, I definitely prefer Haley to Hawley.

Nikki for sure.

Josh Hawley is Trump in a much more inoffensive package. Competent, calm, and dangerously authoritarian. Probably the scariest senator up there right now. There are worse senators, but they are much less subtle about their authoritarianism and therefore much less likely to climb higher in government.
