So Nikki Haley could still move into the White House

Polls show that many Republican Haley supporters would not vote for Trump but for Democrat Biden if the race between Trump and Biden were rematched. Especially if Haley enters the race as an independent candidate, she could cost Trump the votes he needs to win against Biden because she would split the vote for the Republicans. It’s unlikely that Haley wants to achieve that. Unlike Republican Liz Cheney, who was fired by her own party, Haley has never expressed the desire to use all her might to prevent another Trump presidency. Your political enemy is Biden. Nevertheless, Trump is also likely to be aware of the fact that Haley could deprive him of a victory. And that gives her power.
