The Facts
After teasing the concept for months, former UN Ambassador and South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley is expected to announce her candidacy for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.
Haley’s team is reportedly sending invitations to her supporters to attend a "special announcement" on Feb. 15 at The Shed at the Charleston Visitor Center in downtown Charleston, S.C.
The Spin
Narrative A
While Nikki Haley has an uphill battle to secure the GOP nomination in 2024, she is an intriguing candidate with unique qualities compared to the prospective primary field. As a woman of color, she could represent a diverse future for the party, and being the first female of color president would look great for the Republican Party. Her victory might finally end America's divisive culture wars.
Narrative B
Nikki Haley represents everything that is wrong with the GOP and is a dangerous neocon relic from the G.W. Bush era. She will likely focus on the military-industrial complex instead of taking on Big Tech or standing up to leftist ideology, which is concerning. America and the GOP can't afford a candidate driven by the elitist political winds.
