Haley's new campaign is about convincing you Trump will lose
“He will not defeat Joe Biden in November and he will drag the entire Republican ticket down with him."
As Michigan votes on Tuesday in its primary, Nikki Haley will be campaigning thousands of miles away in Centennial, Colorado.
Then she’s on to Orem, Utah, before returning back east for stops in Richmond, Virginia and Washington, D.C. and Charlotte, North Carolina later in the week.
Now 0-for-5 in 2024 presidential nominating contests, the win-less Haley has pledged to continue her campaign through March 5th’s Super Tuesday — when 15 states and American Samoa cast ballots.
But given her willingness to endure emphatic losses — even inside her home state — her trajectory may now point to staying in the race through this summer’s Republican National Convention.
Considerable financial resources are allowing Haley to soldier on, but the long-term cost may be a viable future for her inside a Trump-first Republican Party. Her pledge to “campaign until the last person votes” without a realistic path for victory suggests she’s come to terms with it.
