CHARLESTON, S.C. – Nikki Haley joined Your World with Neil Cavuto and highlighted Donald Trump's major liabilities as a candidate. She also touched on what her record-breaking fundraising haul says about her campaign.
Watch her full interview here:
Nikki Haley on Donald Trump as the incumbent, and his polarizing approach:
"We ended up getting 43 percent of the vote in New Hampshire. Think about that. The Republican incumbent, Donald Trump, did not get 43 percent of the vote in New Hampshire. That's a problem. He's not winning any additional people. He's not winning independents. He's not winning suburban women. He's not winning many of the Republicans.
"But on top of that, look at what he did the day after he talked about revenge the night of the New Hampshire election. What did he do? He said, anybody that supports me is no longer part of MAGA. If you are running for president, your job is to bring more people in. It's a story of addition. Not to go and push people out of your club. That's not what a candidate for the president of the United States does. That's somebody who's making it all about himself. This is not about himself. Whether it was the night of the New Hampshire elections, whether it was after his court case that he lost, the problem that I have, at no point did he talk about the American people, Neil."
Nikki Haley on Donald Trump's legal bills:
"Trump spent $50 million of his campaign dollars on legal fees, on personal cases against him. Think about that. That's why he's not on TV in South Carolina. That's why he hasn't been here yet. That's why he's not doing rallies. It's because he's using all the money to pay for his legal fees for his own personal cases.
"No, what I'm saying is, how do you defeat Joe Biden if all of your money is going to legal fees? Tell me that. He, out of his own mouth, said, I'm going to spend more time in a courtroom than I'm going to spend campaigning. That's a problem. That's a problem because our country can't wait."
Nikki Haley on her record breaking fundraising haul:
"If you want to talk about something, talk about the fact that, first of all, I have 250,000 donors from all 50 states. 95 percent of those are $200 or less. That is the 70 percent of America that don't want a Trump-Biden rematch. It is time for y'all to start hearing those people."
