Former President Donald Trump slammed former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley on Tuesday night in New Hampshire during his victory speech after winning the state’s presidential primary.
“I have to tell you, it was very interesting because I said, ‘Wow, what a great victory,'” Trump said. “But then, somebody ran up to the stage all dressed up nicely — when it was at 7. But now I walked up and it said 14.”
“She ran up when it was 7, and you know, we have to do what’s good for our party, and she was up and I said, ‘Wow, she’s doing a speech like she won. She didn’t win. She lost,'” he continued. “Last week we had a little bit of a problem. If you remember, Ron was very upset, because she ran up and she pretended she won Iowa.”
“And I looked around and I said, didn’t she come in third? Yeah, she came in third,” he said. “And then I looked at the polls, she was talking about most win-ability. Who is going to win, and I have one put up, we have won almost every single poll in the last three months against crooked Joe Biden. Almost every poll. And she doesn’t win those polls.”
He added that she had a “very bad night” and she shouldn’t be trying to claim a victory in her loss.

TRANSCRIPT:
DONALD TRUMP: Well, I want to thank everybody. This is a fantastic state. This is a great, great state. You know, we won New Hampshire three times now. Three.
We win it every time three win the primary, we win the generals, we’ve won it, and it’s a very special place to me. It’s very important. If you remember, in 2016, we came here and we needed that win and we won by 21 points and it was great.
Today, I have to tell you, it was very interesting because I said, “Wow, what a great victory.” But then somebody ran up to the stage all dressed up nicely — when it was at 7. But now I walked up and it said 14.
She ran up when it was 7, and you know, we have to do what’s good for our party, and she was up and I said, “Wow, she’s doing a speech like she won. She didn’t win. She lost.”
Last week we had a little bit of a problem. If you remember, Ron was very upset, because she ran up and she pretended she won Iowa.
And I looked around and I said, didn’t she come in third? Yeah, she came in third.
And then I looked at the polls, she was talking about most win-ability. Who is going to win, and I have one put up, we have won almost every single poll in the last three months against crooked Joe Biden. Almost every poll. And she doesn’t win those polls.
This is not your typical victory speech, but let’s not have somebody take a victory when she had a very bad night. She had a very bad night.
