You deserve, 800 to eight to 44, 44 all right. You are never going to believe why donald trump thinks that black voters, like friday night, unlocked marco is live its been a crazy week ingests when you think youve heard it all tonight, donald trump says this i got indicted for nothing for something that is nothing they were doing it because its election interference. And then i got indicted a second time, third time, and a fourth time. And a lot of people said that thats why the black people like because they have been hurt so badly and discriminated against. They actually viewed me as im being discriminated against can you get more insulting . Do you do you really think that people like you because you were indicted because there is some suggestion thats being made here that people see themselves in you. Hes just like me, i too, have been indicted that discrimination and all that accompanies it can be reduced to what your experience has been i guess stereotypes might be the new platform here. Forget a family man, forget a businessman, forget actual policies you might hold and want to put out into the universe. Know, you must like me because you to have had a run in with the law well, why isnt that the pitch for all voters, right he has said that he is the outside of the consummate outsider outside the establishment why is think that only appeals maybe or thats why black voters like you cannot make this up. You realize its coming from a political front runner. Hes hoping to get more votes, not alienate voters. It tells you what is wrong with where we are today you know earlier today, president joe bidens campaign made this statement calling trump. Well, the poster, the proud poster boy for modern racism. Now, im going to let you decide whether he is in fact as advertised thats up to you to make that conclusion or not. But what he is selling, he hopes black voters are buying, but they are a monolith that they too face indictments that they think of discrimination only as it relates to the cases perhaps against him. And thats enough for them that that is his final pitch in the wee small hours of the morning to voters, at least hours before the polls open in South Carolina, to which you have to say what the friday is this . I want to bring nikki haleys campaign manager, betsy ankney. Weve got a lot to get to, but first, i wanted to talk about obviously, youre a candidate. Nikki haley, and who you support. And of course, the trajectory of her potential success in South Carolina. But i have to get your reaction to this suggests that trump made just moments to go at a rally. By the way, around alley where black people and many were in the audience, that they liked him because he was indicted and that he is the poster child of discrimination as a result, what is your response to that . Well, first, thank you for having me and i think what you just showed is exactly why 70 of americans do not want a trumpbiden rematch. This is just more of the same chaos, more of the same drama, more of the same baggage. And its exactly why 70 of americans want Something Different and want something new thats what nikki haley has to offer. So we are running through the tape here in South Carolina nikki is taking her message to every corner of the state and i think what you just showed shows the fact that theres just more chaos and more of the same with both trump and biden as relates to president biden, he made the statement of the campaign about the Poster Child Comment about one donald trump. I do wonder what you make of the president , and id say its making that statement. And though his campaign, of course. Again donald trump i think it shows that joe biden does not want to run against nikki haley. I think he very much wants this very quickly to be a rematch against trump. He beat him once he can beat him again. And so i think that hes trying to focus all of his fire on donald trump right now because he wants this to quickly become a race between him i mean trump, but nikki haley is continuing to fight. We know that there is a better way joe biden and the democrats have said that nikki haley is their Worst Nightmare because they know that she can win. And so thats what were focused on, and thats what were fighting for every day let me ask you, just while were speaking about these comments tonight that have emerged really today and tonight about race nikki haley has had some difficulties with the race issue and answering questions and a variety of ways, particularly about the civil war com, i need not remind you of what that is but im wondering, why do you think this continues to be top of mind for many voters as it relates nikki haley and not what she is hoping they will focus on. So nikki haley is the daughter of indian immigrants. She was the first female minority governor in the country and she led the state of South Carolina through some very tough times. She brought down the confederate flag. And so i think that nikki haley understands more than anyone what these issues mean. And i think she is someone who can unite the country the way that she united the state of South Carolina and really bring us together and move forward in a positive way, in a way thats focused on the future and a positive vision well not to belabor the point, but that is better. Maybe your answer has been one that is much more resolving in some respects than shes been able to accomplish. What are the voters, judge that very notion from race to the actual race tomorrow though, lets talk about that. Shall we . Because this is an opportunity for nikki haley to prove that shes got deeper support than what the poll say. And im im not someone who only looks at the polls. I want to know what the actual voters have to say, but the polls right now have her trailing by 35 points behind trump. I am wondering if there is concern in her campaign and with you tonight about that gap at the polls currently suggests that actually translates to the election. And she doesnt take her own state. Can she stay in the race so nikki haley gave a speech on tuesday talking about that very issue. We are moving forward. We are moving on to super tuesday. We are headed to michigan the day after South Carolina and look, 200,000 people have already voted in the state of South Carolina and we are focused on making sure that we sprint through the tape here. And again, this is about who can ultimately win a general election and bring together the country and so we are focused on the fight ahead. We are cleareyed about the challenges this is, as nikki said, david versus goliath, but she has them the underdog her entire life. She has defied expectations, her entire life, and throughout this entire race. And so we will see you in michigan on sunday night and beyond that. Well, i want to talk to you about an issue that obviously has a very big part of the conversation and she herself has brought up ive recently its about whats going on an alabama obviously not her home state. But the issue in a postdobbs world of abortion and of course, Reproductive Rights is very top of mind for voters across the aisles. Alabama ivf ruling. Former governor, first appeared to back it, saying that she believes frozen embryos are children but then there was backlash, of course, and then it seemed that she qualified her remarks and this is what she told jake tapper just yesterday i think that the court was doing it based on the law, and i think alabama needs to go back and look at the law. This is incredibly personal to me because i had both of my children with for until it we dont want them to stop doing ivf treatments. We dont want them to stop doing artificial insemination. We want to make sure that people are able to have these blessings. But i think this is and needs to be decided on the people in every state. I personally believe an embryo was a baby, not everybodys going to agree that an embryo was a baby, but thats why parents need to be able to have the decision on how theyre going to handle those embryos so if she tried to have it both ways when she believed the law needs to change i think what you heard nikki say is what she has said on these issues all along, she approaches it from a place of compassion. She went through issues, having her two children, she understands those those challenges, and she also understands the importance of making sure that women and families have ivf in those treatments available to them. So no, its not about having it both ways. Its about making sure that you are approaching these issues with compassion and consensus and understanding that everyone has a storied italian, everyone has their own issues. And nikki is someone who both did have issues having two children understands the importance of that and wants to make sure that women and families across the country have that available to them as well. I think its really important the way that she has personalized when she has responded about this issue and has really been eyeopening for so many people on a similar journey. But speaking of consensus she has said that she would back a nationwide abortion ban, but then she also said that its not a winning issue. Is there a disconnect there between what she would believe and what she would support and what she thinks voters actually want no. Nikki has said that she is unapologetically prolife. Again, she is a mom. She had issues having her two children, and she wants to approach this issue from a place of compassion and standing. And so she is not about demonizing this. She is not about putting certain benchmarks on it. Hes. About how do we come together and save as many babies and help as many moms as possible. And i think that if more people approached it from that perspective, we would be in a much better place as the country, while her main competitor, as you know what donald trump and he is speaking and talking about embracing ivf. He has been calling on alabama lawmakers to now protect it. Looking ahead, the general election, which is where she wants to be, is his support and clarity on this issue outflanking her donald trump lost women by 15 points in 2020. He lost independence by 13 points. He has done nothing over the past several years just to change that trajectory. He lost not only in 2020, but in 2022, his Losing Streak continued. We just republicans just lost a house seat in new york. We previously held, so no, he is not someone who was able to bring back that coalition of suburban women and independence. It is why nikki haley is defeating joe biden by double digits in most National Polls and why trump is within the margin of error. There is one candidate in this race who can win a general election and that is nikki haley. And thats why were continuing to fight. We know that there are huge stakes and we know that theres a lot of sake in this country and there were a lot of issues that we face and nikki haley is the only one who can ultimately win a general election and get this country back on track. So thats what were focused on and thats where were headed. Betsy egg. Thats almost showtime as they say that theres been early voting already happening, but tomorrow really will be the true test. Were all waiting with bated breath. Thank you so much. Thank you for having me take care. You too. Now, i want to bring in cnn senior data and political analysts, the great harry enten on a friday night, no less, harry, always good to see you. My friends are telling me does nikki haley have a real shot in South Carolina tomorrow . Where else what i rather be than right here right now with you, laura. Now, i mean i mean, come on an answer your question. Look, heres the choice for gop nominee in South Carolina. We have to recent polls, cbs news, yougov, look at this down trump at 65 . Nikki haley elliot, 30 . Thats a 35 point lead. If cbs news doesnt do it for you, how about Winthrop University . Look here, donald trump was 65 . Nikki haley at just 29 , 36 points back. And i will note, laura, i have gone back through history, looked at every single primary possibly could, and i have not found an instance in which and that it was able to come overcome such a deep deficit that nikki haley had in the final policy and gone on to win that primary. So look, history sometimes can be made, but at this particular point, it doesnt exactly look good for the former governor of South Carolina. Well, look at those numbers. Thats pretty unbelievable. How about if is past prologue here . I mean, has anyone ever lot us their home state and gone on to be the nominee . Yeah. So this is one of my favorites and we have a do not enter a stop sign right here nominees who lost lost their homes saying the primary zero is zero, it has never happened, it has never happened before. Remember marco rubio lost some state back and back in 2016 florida to donald trump and marco rubio left the race. Now, Nikki Haley Says that she would in fact continue on, but zero history doesnt look too kind. And if you look at the polling fluoro, look here, choice for gop nominee nationally among the potential gop electorate look at this. This is even worse polling for nikki haley than what she sees in South Carolina. Donald trump up. Now, im not exactly a math genius here, but this looks like 63 points to me according to quinnipiac, how about this . I guess a slightly closer margin, 58 points according the Market University law school poll. So if nikki haley loses tomorrow, which by all accounts and purposes the poll suggests she will. That is just the start of a very rough journey, not just historically speaking, where no ones ever come back after losing their home state to be the nominee. But looking at the polling ahead nationally, it just gets even more rough for nikki haley Going Forward i mean, i im an eternal optimist. Im a Glass Half Full kind of person. Would she have to be that for her chances to even continue if they really are so dire. Yeah. I mean, look, heres the real question. If she loses tomorrow in South Carolina, i think the question is, why do you continue on given this and given the history right here . Well, it could just be as simple as the fact that maybe she doesnt like donald trump because a lot of her voters dont like donald trump how haley supporters feel about donald trump. Just an 18 favorable rating. There we go with the pen right there, 18 favorable 75 unfavorable. So now she could continue on just because she doesnt like the die, even if she doesnt have much of a real shot. The fact is i do a lot of things continue to do. A lot of things just because i dont like somebody else. So nikki haley, maybe in the same campus i am. Oh, wait. Lets not m this segment names some of the things you do because you dont like someone else. Please be as specific and detailed as you possibly can. You know, let me just tell you this. If i say those things, i can be in real trouble with my mom and i know better than to be in trouble if my mom, especially on a friday night, what a good son, harry enten. Thank you so much. Wiggle out of that one. I try my best. He tried as hard as we could, but theres More Bad News today for donald trump. You know, he was already on the hook for 355 million in his fraud case in new york. What hold on. Hes got an additional 99 million in interests that could continue to occur. You know what let me do the math. I got a pen thats what 355 million. Okay. Add that to what, 99 million a west fat hold on. And carry the two thats 454 million bucks. Oh, my god.
