Kilmeade: Trump needs Haley in final hours of campaign
Fox News host Brian Kilmeade suggested former President Trump should try to win over supporters of Nikki Haley, his former GOP primary opponent, in the final hours before Election Day.
“One thing that ... the former president needs, and I think it’s Nikki Haley. Nikki Haley supporters,” Kilmeade said Monday morning on "Fox and Friends."
“And they’ve been having trouble lining up schedules, or whatever the teams are doing.”
Kilmeade pointed to a recent op-ed Haley penned in The Wall Street Journal backing Trump, calling him "the right choice" for the country.
The host's comments were first highlighted by Mediaite.
Haley, a critic of the former president on the campaign trail, dropped out of the GOP primary earlier this year and endorsed him.
Republican National Committee Chair Michael Whatley said last week that Haley was "welcome" on the campaign trail for Trump.
“She is talking about the issues that women voters, but every voter really, truly cares about,” Whatley said.
