Nikki Haley: 'On Standby' for Trump Campaign

Sunday, 08 September 2024 05:25 PM EDT

Nikki Haley told CBS News' "Face the Nation" there's a lot at stake with this year's election, but she's "on standby" if former President Donald Trump's campaign needs her.

"To me, the stark contrast between a Trump and Harris administration are what led me to say, yes, I need to, you know, I'm going to be voting with Trump, and I'm going to speak at the convention. And so that's what I did," she said.

While Haley said Trump's camp hasn't asked her to campaign, he's welcome to pick her brain.

"He can, you know, whatever he decides to do with his campaign, he can do that. But when I called him back in June, I told him I was supportive. I think the teams have talked to each other a little bit, but there hasn't been an ask as of yet. But, you know, should he ask, I'm happy to be helpful," she said.

Haley said while she was supportive of Trump's candidacy, she disagreed with his stance on the government and insurance companies paying for in vitro fertilization, reports Fox News.

"It's not a policy I support any more than it's a policy of Kamala Harris to remove private health insurance, or Medicare for all," Haley said.

"When you talk about Medicare for all, when you talk about removing private health insurance, you might as well be Canada. You might as well look at socialist healthcare," said Haley, who said both her children were the result of fertility treatments. "We never want to get to that point, because you're not going to get IVF or anything else, cancer drugs or anything else when it comes to that."

Haley said while the option should be available to everyone, the way you do that is not through mandate coverage.

"Instead, you go and you make sure that coverage is accessible, and you make sure that you're doing everything you can to make it affordable. That comes with regulations," she said.
