GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley doesn’t think Biden has another White House run in him —in fact, she thinks he’s likley to die within the next five years, putting Kamala in the Oval Office.
“He announced that he’s running again in 2024, and I think that we can all be very clear and say with a matter of fact that if you vote for Joe Biden you really are counting on a President Harris, because the idea that he would make it until 86 years old is not something that I think is likely,” Haley, 51, said in an interview on Fox News.
From NBC News:
Biden officially announced his re-election campaign Tuesday with a video that took aim at “MAGA” Republicans, referring to Trump’s 2016 campaign slogan “Make America Great Again.”
Haley has framed her presidential bid around a “new generation” of leadership. In a speech launching her campaign, she suggested that politicians over 75 be required to take a mental competency test — a proposal that first lady Jill Biden slammed as “ridiculous.”
Her latest remarks come as Biden, the oldest president in U.S. history, works to combat concerns about his age heading into 2024. Republicans are weighing how far to push the issue in the campaign without alienating older Americans who tend to be dependable voters.
Haley recently tweeted in response to Biden’s press conference cheat sheet, saying Kamala is “waiting in thw wings.”
This is sad for @JoeBiden. It's embarrassing for the media. And it's scary for the country because @KamalaHarris is waiting in the wings. pic.twitter.com/aWLMNzdlJ6
