Delusional Nikki Haley Declares it’s Now a ‘Two Person Race’ – After Coming in THIRD
Neoconservative presidential candidate Nikki Haley declared it is now a “two-person race” in Iowa after she took third place in the caucuses behind Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.
DeSantis was declared to be the second-place finisher by the Associated Press at 10:20 p.m.
Despite the loss, Haley channeled her inner Hillary Clinton and still declared that the race is between herself and former President Donald Trump — who won the night by a landslide.
“When you look at how we’re doing in New Hampshire, in South Carolina, and beyond, I can safely say tonight Iowa made this Republican primary a two-person race,” Haley claimed.

Obviously, the comment was widely mocked on social media.
Conservative publicist Jillian Anderson responded, “someone tell her she came in 3rd.”

“Nikki Haley pulled off a Hillary Clinton-like gaffe: She assumed a second-place finish, and her speechwriters didn’t update her message based on the results,” Rev. Ben Johnson tweeted.
