Trump and Biden call on Haley voters to join them
The 52-year-old Republican, former American ambassador to the UN, was largely defeated on Tuesday during the “Super Tuesday” primaries, during which former President Trump won 14 of the 15 states at stake among the Republicans. Donald Trump and current President Joe Biden have both called on Nikki Haley’s voters to join them.
The former president, who is expected to be named the Republican candidate at the party’s convention this summer, invited Nikki Haley’s supporters to join “the greatest movement in the history” of the United States while the Democrat , also almost assured of being there for the November presidential election for his party, affirmed that there was “a place for them” in his camp. Joe Biden also praised the “courage” of the Republican candidate for defying Donald Trump.
