Joy Reid and Democrats are making last-ditch attempts to prop up the former U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haley as a challenger to Donald Trump, despite the fact she has almost zero chance of becoming the GOP nominee.
MSNBC’s Reid responded to Haley’s defeat in New Hampshire by calling for a “donor class” to step in and help her “thug it out for a few months” to hurt Trump’s campaign as much as possible
Reid said the establishment should advise Haley to stay in the race as long as possible and that they’re “going to put some more money in your bank account.”

In his victory speech, Trump said the NH governor “doesn’t know what the hell he is doing,” and Democrats are turning out for Haley “because they want to make me look as bad as possible.”
Trump’s victory was so significant that even Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel urged Nikki Haley to drop out of the race.
“There is a message that’s coming out from the voters, which is very clear. We need to unite around our eventual nominee, which is going to be Donald Trump, and we need to make sure we beat Joe Biden,” McDaniel said.
McDaniel added:
“It is 10 months away till the November election, and we can’t wait any longer to put our foot on the gas to beat the worst president, to beat a president that’s kept our borders open, allowed fentanyl to pour through, allowed inflation to go rampant.”
🚨BREAKING🚨: @realDonaldTrump has ALSO broken the record for the higher vote percentage as a share of the overall population in a New Hampshire Presidential Primary, surpassing the record of 11.32% set by @BernieSanders in 2016.

Currently, it's 11.6% and on it's way to 12%.
Trump also highlighted that he’s 50 points ahead of Haley in South Carolina, where she was governor.
“I find in life you can’t let people get away with bullshit,” he further noted:
Meanwhile, Vivek Ramaswamy warned that former ambassador Nikki Haley has “sinister” motives behind her campaign.
“I think that if she stays in this race, it will continue to reveal that there are some sinister forces at work here,” Ramaswamy told Fox News.
“There’s no path for her to defeat Donald Trump through the front door, which means what they’re actually rooting for is eliminating him from competition and then it becomes no mystery that the very people propping up Nikki Haley are the very people who are also paying for the lawsuits to keep Donald J. Trump off the ballot and the lawsuits against him.”
Watch
Nikki Haley’s biggest supporters include the same left-wing mega donors (e.g. Reid Hoffman) who funded the lawsuits against Trump. It’s now plainly obvious that her *sole* objective in this race is to await Trump’s unlawful elimination from the ballot & trot into power after that https://t.co/LaMCyDYeh9
