The party is just about over for Nimarata Nikki Haley. She may be toast after Super Tuesday as campaign funds are drying up faster than her cheating on her military husband. First, it was Democrat Reid Hoffman pullings his funding of Nikki Haley. Now, its the billionaire Koch brother who had been funding Haley, unlike last night’s humiliating lost in her home state.
Americans for Prosperity Action, the network backed by billionaire Charles Koch, is pausing its financial support of GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley’s campaign a day after she lost to former President Donald Trump in her home-state primary in South Carolina.
AFP Action said it still endorses Haley for president but now its support will only come in the form of words — not cash.
“Given the challenges in the primary states ahead, we don’t believe any outside group can make a material difference to widen her path to victory,” AFP Action CEO Emily Seidel wrote in an email to staff, first reported by Politico. “And so while we will continue to endorse her, we will focus our resources where we can make the difference.”
AFP Action declined to provide further comment beyond the staff memo.
AFP Action closing its wallet is the next nail in the coffin for the former South Carolina governor who has taken a series of hits since the start of the election year. Along with AFP Action, billionaire Reid Hoffman has also stopped funding Haley’s presidential bid.
