Nikki Haley Urges Trump to End Attacks on Kamala Harris
- Nikki Haley urges Trump to focus on 'issues' instead of criticizing Kamala Harris.
- She emphasizes the importance of positivity in Kamala Harris' approach.
- Haley advises Trump to avoid discussing past issues and current crowd sizes.
In a recent statement, former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley, who is challenging Donald Trump in the Republican primary, urged him to shift his focus from personal attacks on Vice President Kamala Harris to substantive policy issues. Haley criticized Trump for his ongoing complaints about Harris, asserting that such tactics would not resonate with voters. “The campaign is not going to win talking about crowd sizes or what race Kamala Harris is,” she emphasized, advocating for a more issue-oriented approach. Haley, who previously served as South Carolina's governor, acknowledged that Harris appeals to undecided voters with her hopeful messaging. She pointed out that voters are looking for a vision for the future rather than a focus on past grievances. “They don’t want a former president talking about the past,” Haley stated, highlighting the need for a forward-looking campaign strategy. In a speech in Michigan, Senator J.D. Vance echoed Haley's sentiments by linking Harris to President Biden's policies and criticizing their joint failures, particularly regarding the economy and border security. However, he also engaged in personal attacks against Harris, which Haley cautioned against, reiterating the importance of discussing policy over personal jabs. Haley concluded by asserting that Republicans should not be surprised by Harris's rise as the Democratic nominee, suggesting that the party has long anticipated her candidacy. “It was her all the time,” she remarked, urging her party to stop complaining and start addressing the real issues at hand.
