Deception
(90%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author implies that Nikki Haley's loss was due to her being a conservative and not opposing Trump outright. However, this is misleading as Haley has been critical of Trump on multiple occasions and even ran against him in 2016. Secondly, the article suggests that there were only two people running by the time New Hampshire rolled around which made it easy for one person to win. This is also false as several other candidates had dropped out before New Hampshire and many others were still running at that point. Thirdly, the author implies that Haley's campaign was anachronistic and retro when in fact her focus on a revival of hawkish neoconservative foreign policy was very much in line with current Republican ideology.
