Trump now targets Nikki Haley, calling her a ‘birdbrain’ following the debates.

Former President Donald Trump Targets Nikki Haley in Truth Social ⁤Posts

Former President Donald Trump has shifted his ​focus to former United Nations Ambassador Nikki⁣ Haley, one of his Republican primary opponents in 2024.⁢ Trump, who leads his ⁢opponents by double digits ⁤and enjoys the‍ support of ⁢over half of likely Republican primary voters, has primarily criticized Gov. Ron DeSantis ​(R-FL) until now. However, with DeSantis struggling‌ in the polls and Haley gaining momentum ⁣after impressive debate performances, Trump has changed‌ his target.

“MAGA, or I, will never go for Birdbrain Nikki ​Haley. No loyalty, ⁤plenty of lies!” Trump wrote on Truth Social Friday. “‘I ​will never run against ​our great President,’ she said, ‘he has done an outstanding job.’ To ⁣which⁤ I responded,’How nice of you​ to say, Nikki,’ knowing full‍ well that her words mean nothing. ⁤She even came to Mar-a-Lago ‌with her family, ‘bearing gifts.’ Anyway, Birdbrain doesn’t have‍ the TALENT⁤ or TEMPERAMENT to do ‌the job. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

Trump also shared a‍ video of Haley from 2021, where ‌she⁣ stated that she wouldn’t run for president if‍ Trump did.

During the second Republican debate, Trump remained silent on the performance of other candidates. However, his campaign sent an email titled “The Real⁢ Nikki Haley,” featuring articles linking ‌her⁤ to Hillary Clinton and highlighting controversial stances and praise for‌ Trump.

While Trump has toned down his attacks‌ on DeSantis, his ‌campaign continues to send daily emails documenting what they call a “kiss of​ death countdown.” The countdown refers to a reported ⁤60-day timeline‍ set by DeSantis super PAC Never Back Down’s chief strategist Jeff Roe for him ⁢to turn his campaign around and defeat⁤ Trump. In‍ the⁤ latest email, Trump spokesman ‌Steven Cheung referred⁢ to the Florida ⁣governor as⁢ “a disloyal dog.”

Haley welcomed Trump’s attention on X, the social ​media⁢ platform formerly known as Twitter, stating, “Love this. It means we are in ⁢2nd and moving up ‌fast. Bring it!”

What are the accusations Trump is making against Haley and how is ‍he trying to tarnish⁢ her credibility?

Say, ‘thank you, Nikki, but no thanks!'”

Trump’s targeting of Haley on ⁣Truth Social, ⁢his recently launched social media platform,​ is seen as⁣ a strategic move to ⁤undermine her rising popularity among Republican voters. Truth‌ Social, billed as⁤ a “platform⁤ for patriots,” has gained significant traction since its launch, attracting millions of users who align with Trump’s conservative agenda.

Trump’s criticism of Haley revolves‍ around her alleged lack‌ of loyalty and the perception of her‌ telling lies. These accusations are aimed at tarnishing Haley’s credibility and portraying ‍her as untrustworthy. By attacking her on a platform ⁤that supports his narrative,​ Trump hopes to sway public opinion against her ⁢and maintain⁢ his position as the dominant figure within‌ the Republican Party.

However, Trump’s targeted ​attacks on fellow​ Republicans have raised concerns within the party. Many believe⁤ that this internal ‍division ‌could weaken⁣ the party’s chances in⁣ future ⁤elections. Some Republicans argue that the party should focus on uniting behind​ a common agenda rather than engaging in⁤ personal‍ attacks.

Haley, on the other hand, has remained calm amid ⁤Trump’s attacks, choosing⁣ to focus on her own​ campaign and policy proposals. She refuses to respond directly to Trump’s criticisms, ⁢believing that engaging ‌in a public feud would only distract‌ from the important issues at hand.

Despite Trump’s attempts to diminish her, Haley continues​ to gain support from Republican ‌voters who view her as a more moderate and viable ‌candidate for ⁤the presidency. Her impressive performances in debates and‌ her experience as a former ambassador have helped her⁣ rise through‌ the ⁤ranks within the party.

As the 2024 Republican primary approaches, the‌ battle between Trump and Haley will undoubtedly intensify. The outcome of this⁤ internal struggle within the party ⁣will have significant implications for the future of​ the Republican Party and‌ its ​chances in the general election.

Regardless of the outcome, one thing is certain: the influence of former President Donald Trump continues to shape the dynamics of the Republican Party. His ⁣targeted attacks on opponents, like Nikki‌ Haley, demonstrate his determination to remain a dominant force ⁢in Republican politics.‌ Whether his⁢ tactics prove ‍successful or not remains to be seen, but the impact of his actions is undeniable.

As the race⁢ for the Republican⁤ nomination heats up, it is crucial for the party ​to find common ⁣ground and unite behind a candidate who can appeal ⁣to a broad range of voters. Personal attacks and divisive rhetoric only serve ⁣to weaken⁤ the party and diminish⁤ its chances of success in future elections. The⁤ real challenge⁣ lies in finding a way to balance the influence ​of figures like Trump with the need for party unity and broader appeal.

Only time will tell how⁤ the battle between Trump and Haley unfolds, but one thing is for certain: the Republican Party ​faces a critical ⁣moment in its history. The choices made ⁣in the coming months will shape the future of the party and its ability to‌ effectively compete in upcoming elections.
