Nikki Haley just bowed out of the presidential race after taking a licking from Donald Trump during Super Tuesday — but if you think she’s gonna kiss the ring now … you’d be wrong.
The former South Carolina governor — who was the last remaining GOP candidate trying to win votes against DT in the Republican primaries as of late — just announced Wednesday that she’s suspending her campaign for the White House following a disappointing loss this week.

There were a lot of states that voted for their party’s candidates … and Nikki only won one of them against Trump, and that would be Vermont. Everywhere else, he won in a landslide.
During her exit speech, Nikki said she was grateful to have the opportunity to run for President … and vowed to continue speaking on the issues she’s passionate about.
More interestingly, though, was the fact she refused to endorse Trump, even now.
She says it’s up to Trump to earn the votes of people who didn’t back him — and it sounds like she thinks he has a lot of work to do in that department, including for herself. NH says Trump should do a better job at embracing more Republicans/conservatives into his cause.
Now, the lane is completely cleared for Trump to be the Republican nominee … and ditto for Joe Biden. Looks like we’re all set for a rematch of 2020 with these two guys — so, get ready.
