In a separate interview this week with NPR, Haley once again raised her concerns about Trump as president, arguing that Trump brought "chaos" and "division." She made clear that she has "even more concerns about Joe Biden being president." 

Her fight has brought her significant financial backing, with her campaign managing to pull around 5,200 donors who had backed President Biden in the 2020 election, including over 1,600 donors who gave more than $500,000 to Biden, according to Politico.

Lara Trump, daughter-in-law to former President Trump, blasted Haley in an interview with Fox News Digital for staying in despite "obvious" proof that Haley has "no path." 

"Why stay in the race? Why fight against the Republican nominee, the person who is leading the party?" Lara Trump said. She also suggested that Haley might bank on Trump’s legal struggles to hinder his ability to run.

"I will say that any person who is not standing up and fighting back in the face of that, calling it out for exactly what it is – election interference – should not be running for President of the United States," Lara Trump said. 

Nikki Haley's campaign team did not respond to a Fox News Digital request for comment by time of publication.
