“I’m looking at the math and the path going forward, and I don’t see it for Nikki Haley,” McDaniel told Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum during an appearance on Fox News on Tuesday night.

“I think she’s run a great campaign, but I do think there’s a message that’s coming out from the voters that’s very clear,” she continued. “We need to unite around our eventual nominee, which is going to be Donald Trump.”
