Former rival
Nikki Haley: “I will vote for Donald Trump”
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump can at least count on the vote of his former internal party rival Nikki Haley in the election in November. Haley said at an event in Washington on Wednesday that she did not always see eye to eye with Trump politically. Nothing has changed in this respect. However, the Democratic incumbent Joe Biden was "a disaster", Haley explained. "That's why I will be voting for Trump."
The former US ambassador to the United Nations had fought a weeks-long duel with Trump in the internal Republican primaries for the presidential candidacy, but had no chance and ultimately conceded defeat.
Duel between Trump and Biden
This means that the US election campaign will see a rematch of the duel between Trump and Biden, who wants to run again in the election on November 5 and has no real competition in his party.
Immediately after her withdrawal, Haley demonstratively refrained from expressing her support for Trump. On Wednesday, she emphasized that Trump should not rely on the votes of her constituents without further ado, despite her personal choice. "Trump would be wise to reach out to the millions of people who voted for me and continue to support me," Haley warned. "And not assume that they will simply side with him."
