Former President Donald Trump said that Nikki Haley would not be able to defeat him or President Joe Biden in the 2024 election.
“She doesn’t have Republican support,” Trump said in Las Vegas over the weekend. “You know what else she doesn’t have? She doesn’t have MAGA.”
Trump claimed that Democrats want Haley to win “because they know she’s the easiest person to beat. She doesn’t have Republican support. Nikki Haley supports the 23% national sales tax, and she wants to gut Medicare and Social Security, raising the retirement age of Social Security, too.”
The former president also said that Haley, who served as U.N. ambassador under him, was “almost a radical-left Democrat.”
“She made a corrupt deal to sell out to the radical left, taking the Democrat money from donors and recruiting all the votes in the primaries that you just saw,” Trump said.
“She got killed in both of them. … She got absolutely beaten badly. And she tried to cancel out Republicans, and she sort of did. She only got 25% of the Republican vote in Iowa, when she came in a distant third, a distant third.”
“She didn’t come to Nevada because they looked at a poll, and I was at 97%,” he continued. “If you want to save America, then get everyone you know out to vote in the Nevada caucuses. … Don’t go on Tuesday, Feb. 6. That’s two days earlier. Don’t do it. Don’t use a mail-in ballot. Don’t do anything. It’s a meaningless event.”
