With Nikki Haley OUT, How Far Will Biden And Trump Go To Get Her Backers?

In a statement released on Wednesday morning, President Biden commended Haley for her courage in speaking out against Trump within the Republican Party. Biden stated, "Nikki Haley was willing to speak the truth about Trump: about the chaos that always follows him, about his inability to see right from wrong, about his cowering before Vladimir Putin." He further expressed his openness to welcoming Haley's supporters into his campaign, emphasizing common ground on crucial issues such as preserving American democracy, upholding the rule of law, and standing firm against adversaries.

On the other hand, former President Trump, utilizing the Truth Social platform, gloated over Haley's defeat on Super Tuesday and invited her supporters to join his campaign. Trump highlighted that a significant portion of Haley's funding and voters came from "Radical Left Democrats," and he urged Haley to continue her candidacy. Trump took the opportunity to thank his supporters and the Republican Party for what he claimed to be the most successful Super Tuesday in history, while asserting his campaign as the greatest movement in the nation's history.
