There has been another unexpected twist in the plans for the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee which kicks off tomorrow. It’s been revealed that Former South Carolina Governor and Republican Presidential primary candidate Nikki Haley has been invited to speak at the convention.
As recently as last week, one of Haley’s senior aides told reporters that Haley had not even been invited to attend the convention, to say nothing of being a speaker. The invitation reportedly went out earlier this week, so this was a last-minute decision and it almost certainly had to have been approved by Donald Trump. We don’t yet have confirmation as to whether Haley will accept the invitation. (NBC News)
Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley has been invited to speak at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee next week, according to two sources familiar with the decision, who said details had not yet been finalized.
The Republican National Committee, the Trump campaign and Haley’s team did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
The invitation appears to have come within the past few days.On Tuesday, Haley released her 97 delegates so they could support Trump at the convention.
