A consultant for the Republican establishment, who wrongly predicted that former President Trump would not be the GOP presidential nominee in 2015, is now calling former United Nations (UN) Ambassador Nikki Haley the “front-runner” for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination.
GOP consultant Alex Castellanos — whose clients have included the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, former President George W. Bush, and Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) during his failed 2008 presidential bid — claims Haley is leading the GOP slate of potential candidates for 2024.
“I think Nikki Haley is the front-runner and it’s going to be very hard to stop her,” Castellanos said in an interview with the Carlos Watson Show. “I think she’s underestimated.”
“I think a lot of the politicians in Washington say, ‘Oh, not really a heavyweight candidate.’ I think she’s the real deal and she’s going to be, I think, the horse to beat,” Castellano said.
Castellanos, as Breitbart News reported in August 2015, wrongly predicted that Trump would never become the Republican nominee for president, much less go on to win in 2016 against Democrat Hillary Clinton, and that an anti-populist Republican would become the nominee.

It’s likely going to have to be a woman if the GOP has any chance of winning in 2024. If the Dem nominee is Harris, the “gee wouldn’t it be neat” crowd will pick her solely on her gender. They will need to divide the women’s votes.
Castellanos is Deep State.
I agree she will not be the nominee, but if she somehow does win the nomination, she will be defeated in a landslide of Walter Mondale proportions.....winning maybe 5-10 states max.....
I won’t be voting for her....
As Ambassador to India?...
And the way he handled the lock downs. He should have taken a lead from DeSantis.
Might as well start calling her Yeb! Haley, folks. I’ll bet this former South Carolina governor wouldn’t even win an SC primary today.
Is that Ana Navarro after her gender reassignment process?
Doesn’t have to be a woman HELLARY didn’t win!! The ONLY damn person worth a damn is DeSantis if Trump doesn’t run!! The dream ticket would be DeSantis/ Noem!!
It’s obviously not a difficult job, based on the performance of that retarded baboon who was the last Texas governor to go on to the White House.
Nikki is a proven snake & backstabber among other less desirable personal traits & while this may be a ‘resume enhancer’ to some people, to the MAGA crowd (which Repubs need to win anything in 2022-2024) it means Nikki is DOA politically.
Oh HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!
No.
“it’s going to be very hard to stop her”
We can stop her. Besides, Nimrata’s parents weren’t citizens when she was born. The bitch can go to the Lake Of Fire.
She may be running but she will NEVER be President.
BINGO!!!
The GOP is trying to push their second tier GOPe types on us like Nikki, Bush and Rubio. Will be a quiet election for me if they do. I will short my ticket or stay home.
As I wrote this a thought occurred to me. Cruz should have taken Trump upon the SCOTUS appointment (if true). He has become another GOP also-ran. He is last cycles News with stronger candidates now in the queue.
She’s the Kamala Harris of the GOP. The elite love her, the voters don’t.
Oh, you must mean the guy who was selling "Compassionate Conservatism."
I'm not happy that your comparing Mr. "Compassionate Conservatism," to a Baboon.
It going to give Baboon's a bad name. /s
Nikii....BS
