The former US ambassador to the United Nations wanted to schedule the meeting right after making comments on Trump. In an interview with Politico’s Tim Alberta, Haley said, “We need to acknowledge he let us down.” She made the comments right after the violent riots on Jan. 6.
“He went down a path he shouldn’t have, and we shouldn’t have followed him, and we shouldn’t have listened to him. And we can’t let that ever happen again,” she said.
"Haley told me she cannot recall a time in which she wasn’t aware of being different. She is still animated by the stories of her childhood. How teachers made her play Pocahontas in the Thanksgiving pageant." https://t.co/QEAOQqhR8t

In her Jan. 12 interview, Halley said Trump’s post-election behavior disturbed her. According to her, he had become a different person.
“I think he’s going to find himself further and further isolated,” the former South Carolina governor said. “I think his business is suffering at this point. I think he’s lost any sort of political viability he was going to have. I think he’s lost his social media, which meant the world to him.
“I mean, I think he’s lost the things that really could have kept him moving.”
So, why did she request a meeting with the person she criticizes on a daily basis?
Well, it looks like Haley needs Trump’s support for the 2024 presidential election. Let’s not forget that Trump leads the 2024 primary poll.
“Fifty-three percent of Republicans said they would vote for Trump if the primary were held today,” Politico reported Tuesday.
Haley has 6 percent, and this leaves her little to no chance to win.
It's beginning. Mark my words, #Haley2024 https://t.co/WqaqE3fdL1

The former UN ambassador did acknowledge Trump’s positive impact. According to Haley, the GOP shouldn’t go back to the way things were before Trump’s election.
“I know how much people love Donald Trump,” she told Politico. “I know it. I feel it. Whether it’s an RNC room or social media or talking to donors, I can tell you that the love they have for him is still very strong. That’s not going to just fall to the wayside.”
Haley has to make a decision and pick a side.
