In a series of public statements, Steve Bannon, former White House chief of staff and conservative commentator, expressed that former President Donald Trump does not require an endorsement from Nikki Haley following her withdrawal from the 2024 GOP primary. Bannon's remarks, which were echoed across various media platforms, underscored a dismissive stance towards Haley's political influence, stating "Screw Nikki Haley. We don’t need your endorsement," and suggesting that her supporters, perceived as "They're all Democrats" likely to vote for Biden, and her donors, "We don't need her donors," were unnecessary for Trump's electoral success. This sentiment was amplified on Bannon's "War Room" podcast and through comments made on shows like Fox & Friends, highlighting a rift within the Republican Party regarding the value of Haley's endorsement and the broader strategy for securing voter support in the upcoming election.
“They’re all Democrats that are going to vote for Biden anyway. The exit polls show that. We don’t need her donors. Donors aren’t going to give Trump any money so let’s not raise her profile by doing that,” he said. https://t.co/fslPUo0Kg3
