Haley, who is currently Trump's only remaining GOP primary rival, has been vocal about her disapproval of the former President, claiming that he is too old to serve another term in the White House and warning that his "chaos" will harm Republican chances at the polls in November.
Haley's comments on Friday were particularly scathing. "Donald Trump is going to spend more time in the courtroom than on the campaign trail & more money on legal fees than talking to voters. That chaos and baggage will lead to a Joe Biden victory in November & a President Kamala Harris," she stated.

Haley's funding sources have been a point of contention, with reports suggesting that she is financially backed by both RINOs (Republicans in Name Only) and Democrats. This has been the case since 2022 when she began collecting donations for her non-profit organization, Stand for America. It is alleged that she continues to receive funding from individuals who are openly critical of Trump.

Haley's recent attack on Trump came in the wake of the former president being hit with over 90 lawfare indictments by Joe Biden and the Democrats. She also criticized Trump after New York state allegedly seized $455 million from him in the latest lawfare case. Trump's supposed crime was taking loans in New York state and repaying them on time and with interest, a move that has led to accusations that capitalism is no longer permitted in the Empire State.
