Republican Nikki Haley launches her 2024 presidential campaign, betting that her boundary-breaking career as a woman and person of color who governed in the heart of the South before representing the US on the world stage can overcome entrenched support for her onetime boss, former President Donald Trump.
Haley, a former South Carolina governor and United Nations ambassador, makes her first appearance in public as a White House hopeful in the historic coastal city of Charleston, casting herself as a figure for generational change who can help the party win the White House again.
“If you’re tired of losing, put your trust in a new generation,” Haley says.
She leans heavily on her experience at the UN, her background as the child of Indian immigrants and speaks in hopeful terms about the country, saying, “Take it from me, America is not a racist country.”
