Former US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley indicated on Monday that she would not mount a bid for the White House in 2024 should former President Donald Trump decide to run again.
“I would not run if President Trump ran, and I would talk to him about it. That’s something that we’ll have a conversation about at some point if that decision is something that has to be made,” said Haley, according to The Hill.
Haley added that she would support Trump if he makes another run for the White House.
She also acknowledged that it had been quite some time since she spoke with the former President. Asked about the last time she talked to Trump, Haley said that it was after the 2020 presidential election but before the attack on the US Capitol on January 6.
Haley stepped down from her UN role in late 2018 but had reportedly done so while on friendly terms with Trump.
Following the attack on the Capitol, however, she directly criticized Trump for his involvement in stoking the riots.
“We need to acknowledge he let us down. He went down a path he shouldn’t have, and we shouldn’t have followed him, and we shouldn’t have listened to him. And we can’t let that ever happen again,” Haley told Politico magazine.
It has been widely speculated that Haley is seeking a presidential run in 2024. She recently established a political action committee (PAC), further fueling speculation she could be laying the foundation for a presidential bid.
While Trump has not implicitly said he will run again in 2024, he has several times hinted at such run.
In a recent appearance on the podcast of his daughter-in-law Lara Trump, the former president called on his supporters to “have hope.”
“You do have hope, that I can tell you,” Trump said. “You do have hope. We love our country — this country. We all owe a lot to our country but now we have to help our country.”
Last month, during a speech before the Conservative Political Action Conference, Trump teased a 2024 run, and said of the Democrats, “Actually, as you know they just lost the White House…who knows, I may even decide to beat them for a third time.”

Yeah, why waste your money and time.
Good idea even if Trump doesn’t run…..not dependable
GOOD.. WE dont want a Rino like you TO RUN!
Nikki stepped in it when she criticized Trump on the riots. Trump was absolved of all wrong doing by yet another impeachment. But that was not enough for Nikki — she knows better — right. Well — there for a long while I had great hopes for Nikki because of her pluck, intelligence and line of thinking. Even if she thought that Trump was wrong or implicated — unless she had positive proof — she should have kept her mouth shut — but no, she judged him as guilty — even if the Democrats could not. PS _ Apparently she still does). When playing chess, the King ( nor any other pieces on a given side) are ever attacked by any on their own side —- good rule for intra party politics — especially if you want to be “King” someday. Nikki blew it — sadly (Kristi Noem, another up and comer, has committed similar missteps). Nikki says that she would talk to DJ — however, I do not think that is going to happen anytime soon. She has been sidelined and now ignored — she just does not realize it. She is needs to perform a phenomenal act of contrition before she can feel the radiation from the center force once again and get to play her cards.
IF she did perform that act of contrition, could we BELIEVE HER though? That is the big question.
Here is a tip Nikki, don’t bother to run for dog catcher either, just saying….
Another Rino hag traitor trying to stop President Trump good riddens witch!
But Trump will not win again. But pence and Haley could. Harris will win the democrats Nomination and she will make the race racist.
In a “fair” accurately counted votes election, Trump wins by at least 2/3 – 1/3. There aren’t enough woke idiots to carry an election which doesn’t have massive fraud committed against the majority of US Citizens.
THAT IS WHY so many of us, feel what’s the point in voting anymore.. WITH THE DEMS voter fraud, being CODIFIED into law, they will KEEP “Winning” election, after election.. REGARDLESS of how WE the people, vote.
