Nikki Haley says that she is willing to step-up to help Donald Trump if he wants to tap her assistance despite their up-and-down past. Haley was the final woman standing against Trump in the 2024 primary election with a crowded field of Republicans seeking to oust the former president for a chance at the White House. She often spoke out against Trump and aired her grievances and disagreements. But before that, Haley served for nearly two years as Trump's Ambassador to the United Nations from January 2017 through December 2018.

Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley on Sunday’s broadcast of CBS’s “Face the Nation” said if she thought fomer Presdent Donald Trump was a “great” candidate she would not have run for president. Partial transcript as follows: MARGARET BRENNAN: You said you’re on standby. In other words, you haven’t been asked to campaign.

Rumors of Trump suffering buyer's remorse after choosing Vance as his 2024 running mate have been rampant since President Joe Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the likely Democratic presidential nominee. While Trump has publicly insisted that he is happy with Vance, saying the senator is "doing a fantastic job" and has been "very well received" by the public during a Fox News interview on Thursday, worries remain about whether the Ohio senator could be a liability for Republicans in November. Paul Begala, who served as White House adviser and chief strategist during...

Former GOP presidential hopeful Nikki Haley slammed an anti-Trump political group Tuesday over its use of her name to back Dem Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election.

I voted for Haley against Trump in the Virginia primary. I am now for Harris. So I am a Haley voter for Harris. Am I not allowed to say that? Do I not have a right to associate with others saying that? It is sad that Trump-supporting Haley has also become anti-free speech Haley.

PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Sen. Susan Collins didn’t vote for Donald Trump for president in 2016 or 2020, and the third time will not be the charm — because she is writing in Nikki Haley. “I publicly endorsed Nikki Haley, and I wanted her to win. She’s still my favorite candidate, and I think she could do a great job. She’s my choice, and that’s how I’m going to express it,” Collins told WMTW-TV. Collins said she “does not support the Democratic nominee either” and supports “some of President Trump’s policies.” However, she also said “a lot of it is...

As far as we know, Nikki Haley isn’t on the short list, nor on the long list. There’s no indication that she’s being considered as Donald Trump’s VP pick, and Trump forcefully smacked down a report in Axios that the campaign was looking at her. She’d still probably be the choice who, more than any other possible pick, would help Trump win in November. By conventional rules, the former South Carolina governor getting the nod would be so obvious as to be completely unremarkable — she’s the runner-up in the nomination fight; she represents a different faction of the party;...

Donald Trump won the Pennsylvania Republican primary with 82.8% of the vote. The Keystone State's primary is closed, meaning only Republicans can vote. But is this cause for worry? Trump won Pennsylvania in 2016 by 44,000 votes. Biden won the state in 2020 by 80,000. However, former candidate Nikki Haley, who dropped out a month ago, received 16.5% of the vote in this year's primary, or about 156,000 votes. That's a healthy slice of the electorate in a state so evenly divided. We can assume that a significant portion of Haley's votes are going to be "hold your nose and...

While majorities in preliminary exit poll data express loyalty toward Trump, the extent of intraparty challenges may matter in what’s expected to be a close contest in November. Despite his having sewn up the nomination, 21% of Ohio GOP primary voters would be dissatisfied with Trump as the nominee, 24% say he lacks...

Nikki Haley blew a staggering amount of money on her failed campaign for the Republican presidential nomination, according to FEC records. The Daily Caller reported that when combining the donations from the Koch-backed Americans For Prosperity Action and the pro-Haley SFA Fund, as well as the money spent by her official campaign, the effort to propel the former governor of South Carolina cost $120 million.
