Trump Lashes Out at Nikki Haley’s Deployed Military Spouse During S.C. Rally

Trump: “‘The greatest president in my lifetime,’ she said, ‘I will never run against him.’ Then she comes over to see me at Mar-a-Lago, ‘Sir, I will never run against you.’ She brought her husband. Where’s her husband? Oh, he’s away. He’s away. What happened to her husband? What happened her husband?! Where is he? He’s gone. He knew. He knew. But no, think of this. Think of this. ‘I will never run against you,’ sir, but it’s all over tape, we have like 19 — the great Dan Scavino, he made 19 versions of it. ‘I will never run against him.’ ‘Will you run against him?’ ‘I will never.’ A little while later, ‘I’d like to announce my candidacy.’ We don’t need people like this. And I’ll tell you what. She did a job. She was fine. She was okay. But I didn’t put her there because I wanted her there at the United Nations. That was up to me. I wanted to take lieutenant governor, who’s right here, and make him governor. That’s what I wanted!
(Cheering and Applause)
And I wanted to get Peggy as your First Lady. You have the best First Lady.”
