Nikki Haley

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is widely seen as Donald Trump's biggest threat for the Republican presidential nomination, but panelists on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" agreed he would have trouble in the general election because he seems like a "jerk."

The GOP governor won re-election in November but is expected to enter the 2024 White House race, and The Atlantic's David Frum said he has the same problem that many GOP candidates have in the post-Donald Trump era, when conservatives rally behind primary candidates who repel Democratic and independent voters.

Nikki Haley is moving closer to making her presidential campaign official. On Wednesday, supporters of the former South Carolina governor will get an email invitation to a Feb. 15 launch event in Charleston, at which she plans to announce her campaign, according to a person familiar with the plans but not authorized to speak publicly about them.

News of Haley's plans was first reported by The Post and Courier of Charleston.

The Donald J. Trump for President 2024, Inc. campaign has officially filed its year-end financials with the Federal Election Commission.

The filing lists the over 40,000 individuals who have donated to the campaign, as well as detailed filings on expenses.

Anti-Trump conservative Matt Lewis is growing frustrated by what he sees as timidity among former President Donald Trump's prospective rivals to go after him in an aggressive manner.

Writing in The Daily Beast, Lewis argues that Trump rivals such as former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis need to "attack Trump, keep attacking Trump, bloody his nose, and then survive the counterpunch" to have any chance of preventing him from being the party's nominee in 2024.

Former President Donald Trump's potential Republican challengers for the 2024 presidential nomination are unwilling to attack him directly — and Republican insiders longing for an alternative to the former president are increasingly frustrated over it, reported The Atlantic on Monday.

"Aside from his most blinkered loyalists, virtually everyone in the party agrees: It’s time to move on from Trump," wrote McKay Coppins. "But ask them how they plan to do that, and the discussion quickly veers into the realm of hopeful hypotheticals. Maybe he’ll get indicted and his legal problems will overwhelm him. Maybe he’ll flame out early in the primaries, or just get bored with politics and wander away. Maybe the situation will resolve itself naturally: He’s old, after all — how many years can he have left?"

After it was announced that former Vice President Mike Pence had documents at his home in Indiana, questions began about whether Attorney General Merrick Garland would appoint a special counsel to navigate this case as well.

MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace began her Tuesday show by saying that someone should probably search the homes of Former Secretary Mike Pompeo, former National Security Adviser John Bolton and former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley for classified documents.

Donald Trump announced his 2024 campaign just after the 2022 midterm elections, but he has yet to have any events or the rallies that have become his signature.

Trump advisers are reportedly scrambling to generate the hefty crowd size that the former president expects, but they're having a difficult time doing it. All of this comes amid Trump losing a key bloc of voters that had been loyal and dedicated to him: anti-choice voters.

With Donald Trump expected to finally leave Mar-a-Lago and kick off his 2024 presidential campaign next week, the Washington Post reports it might be a lonely affair as fellow Republican officeholders are begging off from attending in a key conservative state.

The former president will be making an appearance at the State House in Columbia, South Carolina -- a state that is home to two potential rivals for the GOP nomination: Sen. Tim Scott and former Gov. Nikki Haley.

While Donald Trump still leads in the polls as the favorite to win the Republican Party 2024 presidential nomination, his campaign which should be putting more distance between himself and some of his potential rivals is going nowhere since his November announcement.

As former Trump administration officials like former vice president Mike Pence, ex-U.N ambassador Nikki Haley and former secretary of state Mike Pompeo maneuver and battle each other for expected runs, the former president is barely venturing out of Mar-a-Lago, losing lawsuits, and facing criminal investigations as his money begins to dry up.

During an appearance on Fox News this Thursday, former United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley said former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is using “lies and gossip to sell” his upcoming memoir.

Haley was responding to Fox News host Bret Baier's question about a particular claim Pompeo made in his book Never Give an Inch, saying that Haley coveted the vice-presidency and actively plotted with Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump to steal the position from Mike Pence.

CNN political commentator and former Republican strategist Ana Navarro argued that former President Donald Trump has a "big void" in the leadership of the evangelical community who is willing to go to bat for him in 2024 — but that the state of play is still in flux and they could ultimately come home to him.

This interview, alongside New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman, comes as the former president has openly attacked the evangelical community, which was essential to getting him elected in the first place, and as experts suspect he has a plan to crack down on and divide congregations that aren't fully in the tank for him.

Former White House counselor Kellyanne Conway continued her war of words with Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner this week over revelations that he tried to replace former Vice President Mike Pence with former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley on the 2020 presidential ticket.

During a radio interview with Fox News' Brian Kilmeade, Conway was asked about claims by former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo that Kushner wanted a different vice president to run with former President Donald Trump in the election he ultimately lost to President Joe Biden.
