Haley, who was the US ambassador to the United Nations during Trump’s presidency, has suffered a slew of embarrassing losses since she announced her candidacy in February 2023.

Sources told the Wall Street Journal that she intends to suspend her campaign.

Haley is not going to endorse anyone, according to sources familiar with her plans.

She is set to warn voters about the dangers of an isolationist foreign policy.

Despite getting millions of dollars from rich donors, Haley was crushed by Trump, who easily won nearly every Republican primary without showing up for a single debate.

Haley tried to cut down the former president by criticizing his leadership style and advanced age.

She had repeatedly warned about the dangers of a second Trump term.

She made headlines for calling for mental competency tests for politicians and stood by her Bush-era conservative views.

Haley is set to suspend her campaign just hours after suffering a series of crushing defeats in Super Tuesday.

Trump stormed to victory in 14 states and Haley only won in Vermont by around four percentage points.

A total of 1,215 delegates was needed to be the presumptive Republican nominee and Trump was closing in on 1,000.

Trump scored big victories in a slew of states, including Alaska, Colorado, Maine, Oklahoma, Virginia, Tennessee, Texas, Minnesota, North Carolina, Massachusetts, Alabama, Arkansas, California, and Utah.
