MANCHESTER, New Hampshire (AP) — Donald Trump is turning the screws on Nikki Haley in a show of strength ahead of Tuesday’s New Hampshire primary, surrounding himself with leaders from her home state. Trump, according to his campaign, will be joined at a rally at the NHU Arena in Manchester Saturday night by South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster, the state’s lieutenant governor and a slew of other senior officials, including the state’s attorney general, treasurer and House speaker. The appearances are yet another blow against Haley, who is hoping her appeal among independent and unaffiliated voters will propel her to a strong enough finish in New Hampshire to turn the race into a two-person contest against Trump.
