Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley dodged when asked whether she thinks former President Donald Trump is a good candidate, instead acknowledging only that she thinks he is "the Republican nominee.”
After Haley said of her 2024 candidacy in a CBS "Face the Nation" interview set to air Sunday, “I ran because I thought I could do a better job,” moderator Margaret Brennan responded, “You don’t think he’s a good candidate?”
“I think he is the Republican nominee,” Haley said in a clip released ahead of the full interview. “And I think putting him against Kamala Harris, who is the Democrat nominee — for me, it’s not a question."
"Now, do I agree with his style? Do I agree with his approach? Do I agree with his communications? No,” she continued.
Haley, who ran for the Republican nomination against Trump before dropping out and quickly endorsing him, said that while she does not agree with Trump’s style, approach or communications, she supports the former president because of policy agreements.
