...she still didn't have to remove it. But doing that along with allying with Tim Scott means that she could reliably make a strong showing in South Carolina during the primary and can take credit for the only black Senator currently serving.

If that number is no longer possible for Trump it would certainly be available to Haley in many matchups against the wrong Dems.

They didn't run Nikki Haley out of office. She left her position in Trump's good graces
