You insulted military families two days ago.
You call veterans “suckers" and "losers”.
You can’t just fix that with a fake social media post.
You show your true self when you go off the teleprompter and it’s telling.

Republican Accountability @AccountableGOP wrote: Nikki Haley: “How many times do we have to lose before we realize that he’s actually the problem?... Are we gonna let him just take over the party that’s gonna control the convention, too? At what point do we not see the problem. We don’t have kings in this country.”

Trump has now swept every contest that counted for Republican delegates, adding to previous wins in Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Haley is facing growing pressure to leave the race but says she’s not going anywhere despite losing the state where she was governor from 2011 to 2017.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) announced Friday she is endorsing former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley in the GOP presidential primary against former President Trump.

“I’m proud to endorse Gov. Nikki Haley,” Murkowski said in a statement.

“America needs someone with the right values, vigor, and judgment to serve as our next President—and in this race, there is no one better than her,” she continued. “Nikki will be a strong leader and uphold the ideals of the Republican Party while serving as a President for all Americans.”

Murkowski, the first GOP senator to endorse Haley in the race, was among seven Republican senators to vote to convict Trump for his alleged role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. Trump, however, was not ultimately convicted in the Senate.

The former president has called Murkowski a “RINO,” referencing the acronym “Republican in name only,” and claimed “she’s worse than a Democrat,” in endorsing a primary challenger to her during the November 2022 midterms following her vote to convict him.

However, the Alaskan Republican survived a challenge from the Trump-backed Kelly Tshibaka that election cycle.

"The time has now come to suspend my campaign," she said at a news conference on Wednesday morning.

Her departure will leave her rival Donald Trump as the only Republican left after he dominated Super Tuesday, racking up a series of wins.

Ms Haley did not endorse Mr Trump during her resignation speech on Wednesday.

Instead, she congratulated him and said she "wish[ed] him well".

She said it is now up to Mr Trump "to earn the votes of those in our party and beyond it who did not support him".

Though Ms Haley came nowhere near to securing the party's nomination, she found substantial support among voters who had rejected the former president, and in particular college-educated voters.

The question now will be whether her supporters, who made up a quarter of Republican primary voters in some states, will back Mr Trump.

Ms Haley had pitched herself as a fresh start for the party and the chance to move past Mr Trump but only won Vermont and the District of Columbia in the primaries.
