Former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley’s campaign is revealing a multi-million fundraising haul despite efforts to turn off the spigot.
In a statement, the Haley campaign said, “The Nikki Haley for President campaign announced a $2.6 million fundraising haul since New Hampshire polls closed on Tuesday, January 23.”
“That includes $1.2 million raised from small dollar and digital donations after Trump’s unhinged pledge to ‘permanently bar’ any individual who contributed to Haley’s campaign,” it added.

Haley spokesperson AnnMarie Graham-Barnes said, “Donald Trump’s threats highlight the stark choice in this election: personal vendettas or real conservative leadership.”
“Trump’s scheme blew up in his face. The contributions to the Haley campaign are pouring in — proof that people are sick of the drama and are rallying behind Nikki’s vision for a strong and proud America,” she added.
On Wednesday night, Trump ripped into Nikki Haley, who he has given the nickname “Birdbrain” to, as he insisted she is “very bad for the Republican Party and, indeed, our Country.”
He attacked Haley’s competence as he claimed she is “average at best” and “not the one to take on World Leaders, and she never did.”
And then, he pivoted to note how donors in the past who supported his political rivals would “immediately come to me, and want to ‘help out.’”
“This is standard in Politics, but no longer with me. Anybody that makes a ‘Contribution’ to Birdbrain, from this moment forth, will be permanently barred from the MAGA camp,” Trump warned.
Finally, he added, “We don’t want them, and will not accept them, because we Put America First, and ALWAYS WILL!”
The post comes as Haley has vowed to continue her campaign for the 2024 Republican presidential primary after a second-place finish in New Hampshire.
