Well, the moment I’m sure most of us were anticipating has come.

Former governor and UN Ambassador Nikki Haley announced she was ending her Presidential campaign, paving the way for Donald Trump to do what we all felt was inevitable:

Ali Vitali, Sarah Dean, Greg Hyatt and Summer Concepcion with NBC News writes:

“Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley dropped out of the 2024 presidential race Wednesday after losing every state but Vermont in Super Tuesday’s primary contests, ceding the Republican nomination to former President Donald Trump.

Haley’s decision to end her campaign effectively kicks off the general election, with Trump and President Joe Biden taking unofficial command of their parties early in primary season after a string of victories.

“I am filled with the gratitude for the outpouring of support we’ve received from all across our great country, but the time has now come to suspend my campaign,” Haley said in a speech Wednesday morning. “I said I wanted Americans to have their voices heard — I have done that. I have no regrets. And although I will no longer be a candidate, I will not stop using my voice for the things I believe in.”
