When a handful of potential Republican presidential hopefuls convene on Thursday for the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), there will be one notable absence from the speaking lineup: Nikki Haley.
Haley, a former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations and a potential 2024 White House contender, has found herself isolated from former President Trump and the populist wing of the GOP that he commands after a scathing interview with Politico in which she denounced her former boss and wrote off his future influence in Republican politics.
The fallout from Haley’s remarks underscores the risks associated with her strategy of criticizing Trump’s actions and establishing a separate political identity while at the same time trying to appeal to his base of supporters.

Trump declined her request last week for a face-to-face meeting at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida. He has indicated that he will exact revenge on Republicans whom he believes have crossed him, throwing Haley’s future political ambitions into uncertain territory.

Romney would meet with her.
Even Yeb Bush managed to get all the way to the first few primaries in 2016 before his humiliating demise.
Willard the Rat loves leftist Derp trash. Just like himself.
She was a mistake from the beginning evidently.
Fallout? She turned on him. Hello
Her ambition overwhelms her judgment from time to time. Not a good trait for a leader.
Maybe she was hoping President Trump would serve her frogs legs, like he did for Romney!
Shot at the King and missed
Nicky is Icky. Done, Seeyabye.
ANd the Turtle too:-)
LOL. Good luck with that, Nimrata!
Child of two non-citizens. Exotic. Interesting. POTUS- and VPOTUS-ineligible. (Harris’ inauguration notwithstanding)
Sounds more like returning the favor to me. She will have to prevail without my vote.
Wonderful!
It is extremely important that treachery be responded to. The media hates that, because they trade in duplicity and are worried that people might bite their tongue and not give them the puke they love. Oh, I’m sure they will lament it with high language like “chilling effect” lol
And I previously thought that the people of Indian descent were very intelligent.... Oh, well.
Let her wither on the vine. Unlike Cheney she has no job. Time to teach at a university. Don’t know if leftist colleges will hire Cheney bit there’s a think tank or 2 that will.
Who was best at that stuff? Arlen Specter.
She has come up with a new set of strategies. She will move left so as to appeal to the more liberal and ‘broaden the base. She will distance herself from her benefactor and mentor to demonstrate her independence
Hey stupid Nicky Haley, every republican for national office since Reagan left office has tried this dunderhead trick and IT DOES NOT WORK.
Nixon won in a landslide because he was pure conservative.
Reagan won in a landslide because he was pure conservative.
Trump won in a landslide because , well because he was Trump. Bombastic, full of fire and brimstone and as conservative as we needed. won in a landslide in 2016 and 2020
good-bye Nicky! It was nice for a little while. You need to change handlers and stay away from New York. That’s where you get in trouble
Haley is finished.
She may run for President. She won’t be President. She won’t be VP.
Stick a fork in her, she’s done.
She can hang out with Liz Cheney.
