Collins and Murkowski are the only senators to endorse Haley as the rest of the party has coalesced behind Trump, including South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott, from Haley’s home state. 

"We need a president who sees Americans as one American family, and that’s why I came to the very warm state of New Hampshire to endorse the next president of the United States, President Donald Trump," Scott said in January.

She also claimed last week that Trump would not be able to beat President Biden in the general election.

"Donald Trump will not win the general election. You can have him win any primary you want, he will not win a general election," she told CNN last Friday. "We will have a female President of the United States: It will either be me or it will be Kamala Harris. But if Donald Trump is the nominee, you can mark my words, he will not win a general election."
