Trump Appreciates Haley's Support but Sticks to His Campaigning Style

Donald Trump appreciates support from Indian American and former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley but insists on his own campaigning style. Responding to questions about Haley's advice, Trump maintained he is running a calm campaign and values Haley's endorsement but prefers his own strategy.

Republican presidential candidate and former president Donald Trump expressed gratitude for the support he has received from Indian American and former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley, although he has not adopted her campaign advice. Speaking to reporters at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, on Thursday, Trump said, ''I fought Nikki (Haley) very hard. I beat her in her own state by legendary numbers. I get along with her fine. I appreciate that she endorsed me.''

Trump was addressing inquiries about Haley's recent interview where she advised the Republican presidential nominee to focus on policy issues rather than criticizing his Democratic opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris. Haley emphasized the importance of addressing the intelligence of American voters and winning their support.

Trump affirmed his approach, stating, ''I think I'm doing a very calm campaign. I mean, we're here. There's no shouting. Now you'll say he ranted and raved, …. I'm a very calm person. Believe it or not. If I wasn't, I probably wouldn't be around anymore. I appreciate her advice but I have to do it my way.'' He also highlighted his past electoral victory in South Carolina, underscoring his unique strategy.
