“Who cares what the RNC says? We’ll let millions of Republican voters across the country decide who should be our party’s nominee, not a bunch of Washington insiders. If Ronna McDaniel wants to be helpful she can organize a debate in South Carolina, unless she’s also worried that Trump can’t handle being on the stage for 90 minutes with Nikki Haley.” – Olivia Perez-Cubas, Haley campaign spokesperson, responding to reports that the RNC is planning to declare Trump its presumptive nominee with Haley still in the race after only two state contests.
Nikki Haley has already started fundraising off reports that the RNC plans to announce Donald Trump as the presumptive nominee.
This comes after a pro-Haley super PAC announced raising over $50 million in the second half of 2023 — more than a pro-Trump super PAC. pic.twitter.com/rOJsJcDSLx

“It’s absolutely awful,” says Haley backer @ChrisSununu on CNN about the GOP draft proposal to declare Trump the presumptive nominee. He says the “hypocrisy is silly” given the attempt to manipulate the process that Trump previously declared was rigged against him.
