" Trump's remarks came after Haley refused to drop out of the race following his decisive victory in the New Hampshire primary.

Haley, currently trailing by over 30 percentage points in the latest RealClearPolitics aggregate in her home state of South Carolina, has vowed to continue the fight. In response, the Trump campaign has been actively showcasing endorsements from more than 150 current and former South Carolina officials, including the state's governor and both Republican senators.

In a series of tweets, Trump criticized Haley, stating that she was only average, incapable of taking on world leaders, and had not done so during her time in office. He also highlighted how losing candidates' donors would usually turn to him for support, but emphasized that they were no longer welcome in his camp.

Undeterred by Trump's warning, Haley promptly encouraged donors to ignore his remarks and contribute to her campaign. Ardent critics of Trump also seized the opportunity to show support for Haley, with conservative lawyer Heath Mayo proudly announcing his donation and proclaiming his permanent opposition to Trumpism.

Haley's campaign gained significant momentum, announcing a staggering $1 million in donations within the 24 hours after her speech to supporters in New Hampshire. Speaking in Concord, Haley emphasized that despite her setback in the Granite State, the race was far from over and numerous other states awaited.

This clash between Haley and Trump highlights the intensity of the competition within the Republican Party as the 2024 presidential race begins to take shape. With Haley determined to continue her campaign and Trump attempting to maintain his influence, the rift becomes increasingly apparent. Only time will tell how this ongoing power struggle will impact the trajectory of the GOP and the future of American politics.

While Haley may be facing a significant challenge in South Carolina, her recent fundraising success demonstrates that she has captured the attention and support of many donors who are eager to see her continue to compete for the highest office in the nation. As the campaign progresses, voters will be watching closely to see if Haley can rally her base and overcome the hurdles ahead.
