“Donald Trump had a pretty good Q1, if you count being indicted as ‘good,’” Haley argues. She also needled DeSantis for making “one misstep after another,” noting how he described Russia’s invasion of Ukraine as a “territorial dispute.”
Nikki Haley’s presidential campaign is sharpening its attacks on her Republican rivals, arguing that former President Trump is “consumed by the grievances of the past” and that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis isn’t “ready for prime time,” according to a campaign memo to donors obtained by The Hill.
In contrast, Haley’s campaign argues, Trump is campaigning on “the promise of more drama in the future, rather than a forward-looking vision for the American people,” noting that while the former president was facing arraignment last week in a New York courtroom, Haley “was on the U.S.-Mexico border offering her plan for stopping illegal immigration.”
When it comes to other would-be presidential hopefuls, the Haley campaign’s memo was dismissive: “Wait, what others?” Haley became the first Republican to challenge Trump for the 2024 presidential nomination when she announced her campaign in February. Since then, only two other candidates have jumped into the race: entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, a relative unknown on the national political stage, and former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson.Despite jumping into the contest early, polling shows Haley struggling to break out of the single-digits.
