Former President Donald Trump’s campaign released a memo Tuesday declaring Saturday’s Republican primary in South Carolina as “the end” of former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley’s presidential campaign.
Trump senior advisers Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles authored the new memo, titled “The End Is Near For Nikki Haley,” in which they state that South Carolina’s nominating contest will mark the close of Haley’s 2024 bid, whether she agrees or not.
“Of course, like any wailing loser hell-bent on an alternative reality and refusing to come to grips with her imminent political mortality, we should expect more references to Kings and Coronations,” they said, referencing Haley’s recent justification for continuing her fight. But LaCivita and Wiles pointed out that the previous 2024 early nominating contests have “overwhelmingly sent an unmistaken message: Nikki Haley doesn’t represent Republicans any more than Joe Biden does.”
