Former US President Donald Trump took a jab at Nikki Haley after his projected win in the New Hampshire primary, saying that she “had a very bad night,” as reported by CNN.
Trump, during his speech, said that the former South Carolina governor did very poorly. “She did very poorly, actually,” he said. “The governor said she’s going to win, she’s going to win, she’s going to win. Then she failed badly.”
In a speech to supporters in the Granite State, he pointed out Haley’s performance in last week Iowa’s caucuses, where she came in third behind the former president and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who has since dropped out of the race, according to CNN.
Boasting his victory, Trump said, “We win it every time. We win the primary. We win the generals.”
Furthermore, he also railed against Nikki Haley in social media posts, boosting pressure on his rival to drop out of the Republican presidential primary.
However, Haley congratulated Trump after his projected win, and earlier during an election night speech, she vowed to stay in the race regardless of New Hampshire results.
Some of the comments made by Trump on his ‘Truth’ social media platform included, “Haley said she had to WIN in New Hampshire. SHE DIDN’T!!!” one post read.
In another post, Trump called her “delusional,” moments after Haley began her remarks, according to CNN.
The third post read, “SHE CAME IN THIRD LAST WEEK!”
