Haley makes a play for New Hampshire independents by hitting Trump’s age
Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley has reached the do-or-die moment of her 2024 presidential bid: She must win in New Hampshire to have a shot at making her home state of South Carolina competitive.
That reality has pushed her into a notably more aggressive tone vis-à-vis her only real competitor, Donald Trump. One of her key points of distinction is centering around the 77-year-old's age.
At Thursday's CNN town hall in New Hampshire, Haley painted Trump and President Joe Biden as generational equals who weren't up to the task of leading America.
