Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley teased a 2024 presidential run during a speech at the Republican Jewish Coalition Annual Leadership Meeting.
Haley, a former U.S. Ambassador in the Trump Administration, has been a critic of Trump after leaving his administration.
“A lot people have asked if I’m going to run for president now that the midterms are over. I’ll look at it in a serious way and I’ll have more to say soon,” she told the crowd in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Haley said she would do everything she could to win if she decided to run.
“If my family and I decide to continue our life of service, we will put 1,000% into it and we’ll finish it. For now, I’ll say this. I’ve won a tough primaries and tough general elections. I’ve been the underdog every single time,” she said.

Haley suggested she would win if she ran in the GOP primary.
“For now, I’ll say this. I’ve won tough primaries and tough general elections. I’ve been the underdog every single time. When people underestimate me, it’s always fun. But I’ve never lost an election. And I’m not gonna start now,” she said.
Nikki Haley *heavily* hints at a run for President in 2024: “A lot of people have asked if I’m gonna run for President. Now that the midterms are over, I’ll look at it in a serious way. & I’ll have more to say soon.”

It's going to be devastating news to her team of billionaire donors when they realize that nobody wants Nikki Haley to be president. https://t.co/pRklAMVlhu

The Gateway Pundit noted:
A document showing a list of Nikki Haley’s secret donors has surfaced.
The document shows Haley took money from some of the GOP’s biggest donors — including Paul Singer and Miriam Adelson.
Money also came from Vivek and Lakshmi Garipalli, who are members of a family who have donated big money to Democrats.
The donations went to Haley’s nonprofit policy advocacy group, Stand For America.

From Politico:
Many of the GOP’s biggest donors are among those who funneled anonymous contributions to former U.N ambassador Nikki Haley’s nonprofit as she lays the groundwork for a prospective 2024 presidential bid, according to previously unreported tax documents obtained by POLITICO.
Haley’s nonprofit policy advocacy group, Stand For America, Inc., has received major donations from people including New York hedge fund manager Paul Singer, investor Stanley Druckenmiller, and Miriam Adelson and her late husband, casino mogul Sheldon Adelson, the Internal Revenue Service filings reveal.
The roster of supporters who gave undisclosed donations in 2019 also includes Suzanne Youngkin, the wife of Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, himself a possible presidential contender; former Pennsylvania Senate candidate and hedge fund executive David McCormick; and Vivek and Lakshmi Garipalli, members of a New Jersey family that has donated large sums to Democrats — but which gave Haley’s organization $1 million.
The donor list also includes dozens of people who gave anonymously to Haley’s nonprofit but have not given disclosed contributions to her PAC, which was formed two years later and is required to regularly disclose the names of donors who give at least $200. Those contributors include the Garipallis and GOP megadonor Joe Ricketts.
“Nikki Haley’s team tried to stop the publication of the story and sent a cease and desist letter to POLITICO over it,” The Gateway Pundit added.
“Nikki Haley called the disclosure a ‘violation of state & federal law’ and said it was meant to “intimidate conservative donors.”
