Nikki Haley struck Donald Trump for his recent comments on Hezbollah and referenced previous remarks, such as the former president referring to North Korea's Kim Jong Un as his “friend” and his praising of China's President Xi Jinping. | John Locher/APRepublican presidential candidate Nikki Haley on Saturday slammed Donald Trump directly ahead of his remarks at the Jewish Coalition Conference, attacking the former president for past and recent comments on foreign adversaries.
Haley, taking the stage in Las Vegas amid an escalating crisis in Gaza and fears of widespread unrest in the Middle East, praised Trump for a number of foreign policy moves he made as president, including his abandonment of the Iran nuclear deal, his recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and his administration’s brokering of the Abraham Accords.
But she quickly pivoted into a string of attacks, criticizing Republicans — including Trump — who question support for Ukraine today and, ultimately she said, future support for Israel. She said these politicians have lost sight of who the country’s friends versus enemies are, adding that is “not who you want in the Oval Office.”
Among the other GOP 2024 candidates at the convening, Haley hit Trump the hardest, and most directly.
