Nikki Haley defends endorsement of Trump

Nikki Haley, former United Nations ambassador and presidential candidate, was interviewed Thursday for the first time since speaking at the Republican National Convention. She defended her decision to endorse former President Donald Trump and spoke about President Joe Biden dropping out of the 2024 election.

Haley told CNN’s Jake Tapper she “wasn’t surprised” that Biden stepped aside and that “there is an issue that we have in D.C. where people will go into office and they won’t let go, and then their staffers and their family keep propping them up.”
