Nikki Haley has kept busy since leaving her post in the Trump administration as United States ambassador to the United Nations.
A former governor of South Carolina, Haley is often mentioned as a potential Republican presidential candidate for either 2024 or 2028 depending on whether Donald Trump wins re-election in November.
There has even been speculation that Trump might switch out Vice-President Mike Pence for Haley as his running mate in the hopes of boosting his lagging approval numbers among the broader electorate, though there has been no strong evidence that that will happen.
Either way she has positioned herself as a national leader within the Republican party.
A rare woman of color in the partys senior ranks, she has been fundraising for Republican congressional candidates as well as in the Senate and gubernatorial arena. She has set up a non-profit organization to boost her policy priorities. She has continued to pen editorials on foreign policy. And she has retained a small, tightly knit orbit of advisers.
Haley is one of the few high-ranking Republicans to leave the Trump administration on good terms. She has pledged to campaign aggressively for the president and has echoed some of the same arguments Trump has made on national topics such as cancel culture, defunding police forces and statue removal, although the tone and frequency between Trump and Haley vary dramatically. At other times she has kept her distance.

Third parties are difficult to get established in a system with two dominant parties.
It would be better, but I doubt it will happen.
Trump might be smart to swap out Pence for Haley...
Pence could stay on as SOS...a more impactful job than VP...
Haley is a woman, and of the right color for a broader electoral appeal...
Plus, DJT would be keeping a potential political enemy closer...
Of course, he’d also have to triple his security detail and the number of food testers with Haley in the wings!
She started the taking down the symbols of confederacy at the demand of the te mob thing
She started feeding the mob. She is awful.
Nikki “stink-hole” Haley will get ZERO electoral votes in the southeast.
Mike Pence is a completely honorable gentleman, and after the last 30 years, would bring honor and dignity to the Oval office. With that said, I don't think he could ever win, and don't think he wants it if he did.
The Presidency has become nothing more than a mud wrestling contest thanks to the liberal scum that control the news media and most of the dialog. Trump has no problem rolling around it and throwing it back at them, which is why he has survived this long. But I don't think Mr. Pence wants any part of that.
And from here on, the mud wrestling is only going to get worse.
Exactly.
NO. NO. NO. NO. She’s a snake in the GOP grass.
Haley needs to be totally out of the RNC.
Pence, then Pompeo.
Too much will to compromise with the Devil.
Conservatives are sick of it and we are having a good look at the Devil's agenda.
Note...the Guardian is pro commie.
“speculation that Trump might switch out Vice-President Mike Pence for Haley as his running mate”
If he switches out Pence, he’d better look closely at Kristi Noem.
Another Romney, no thanks
Pompeo.
Pence. No. Theyd rip him to shreds. Why is Haley doing this? She is disgusting.
Anyway she quit to be with family. What she thinks were stupid? Now her family takes back seat to her being president?
No. She and the admin were done. Now shes moving in? In case trump loses?
Just eewww
“No. I am opposed to political dynasties.”
Besides, the boys aren’t qualified due to their mother’s citizenship when they were born.
I’m not sure she would win SC let alone the Presidency.
More Guardian Fake News.
“Trump might be smart to swap out Pence for Haley...”
Doesn’t VP have to be qualified to be President? She isn’t; she’s Indian (dot not feather).
Tucker Carlson would be an excellent successor.
One more day of this crap, and I’ll be in favor of replacing the current government with an absolute monarchy.
