In an appearance on NBC News’s Meet the Press, Haley was asked if she believed the RNC had served as an “honest broker” in the 2024 GOP primary. Former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley denounced the Republican National Committee, claiming that it has “clearly not” been an honest broker in the Republican primary.
In an appearance on NBC News’s Meet the Press, Haley was asked if she believed the RNC had served as an “honest broker” in the 2024 GOP primary. "Clearly not,” Haley responded. “If you’re gonna go in and basically tell the American people that you’re gonna go and decide who the nominee is after only two states have voted? I mean, 48 states out there. This is a democracy. The American people want to have their say in who is going to be their nominee, we need to give them that.”
She then spoke about her chances in South Carolina, pointing to a crowd of roughly 1,500 supporters she saw at a rally in the state.
“I think that Americans want to be able to make this decision themselves,” Haley continued. “I don’t think this is the place of the RNC to do it. I think that Trump overstepped when he pushed them to do it, and I think that’s why he’s had to back down, and that was the right thing to do was to back down.”Haley expressed confidence that her previous defeats were only bumps in the road, drawing parallels with her run for governor when she went up against a slew of other prominent candidates.
“I won then, I’m gonna win now,” she said.
Haley has so far failed to pierce 20% of support among Republicans in any national poll, with the RealClearPolitics average currently putting her support at 12.6%. Trump leads by an average of 57.7%.
