Nikki Haley confirmed in a short speech that she is withdrawing from the presidential campaign. – Most likely, Donald Trump will be the Republican Party’s candidate. And I wish him luck, she said. But she did not express any clear support for Trump. – It is now up to Donald Trump to earn the votes of those inside and outside our party who did not vote for him. I hope he does, Haley said in the speech, which was held in Charleston in her home state of South Carolina. Now both Donald Trump and President Joe Biden are asking for support from Nikki Haley’s supporters, according to the AFP news agency. Haley is grateful for all the support she has received while running the campaign and has no regrets, she said. Even if she withdraws from the presidential election campaign, she will continue to use her voice. – Our world is on fire and we must stand by our allies Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. We must get away from the darkness and division in our own country. Haley ended with an encouragement to other women: – To all women and girls I want to say: Be strong and brave. Trump won by a landslide After Super Tuesday’s results, in which Donald Trump won by a considerable margin in 14 out of 15 states, speculation quickly began about whether his only challenger, Nikki Haley, would give up in the race to become the Republican presidential candidate. A few hours later, the Wall Street Journal reported that Haley would resign. Last night, Haley won the nomination election in one state, namely Vermont. It was the only state Trump did not win during the so-called Super Tuesday. Nevertheless, she was a worthy opponent in the night’s election. In several of them, she received as much as 30–40 percent of the vote. In the previous nomination elections, she polled between 20 and 40 percent. Millions of Americans from Alaska in the west to Maine in the east are heading to the polls today. On Monday, she won her first and long-awaited victory over Trump in the nomination election in Washington DC. It made her historic. She became America’s first woman to win a Republican nomination election. At the weekend, she warned that she will only stand in the nomination election as long as she is competitive in order to give voters an alternative to Donald Trump. Did she not want to become vice president? The questions that are being speculated about now are how Haley will stand against Trump and the Republican Party further in the election campaign. In January, she said she did not want to be vice president in his administration. The former UN ambassador is considered a more moderate candidate than her rival and party colleague, and has tried to distance herself from the former president.
