Nikki Haley to meet with donors after surprising showings in GOP primaries: report
Nikki Haley will meet with donors next week after a series of surprisingly strong showings in Republican primaries, a source said in a new report.
A person close to the former South Carolina governor said Thursday that Haley will attend a retreat Monday and Tuesday to thank about 100 of her biggest campaign donors, reported the Wall Street Journal.
Haley is not expected to discuss her political future or encourage them to contribute to other candidates, the report notes.
“Sometimes it takes more than one run to secure the nomination – look at John McCain and Mitt Romney,” said GOP fundraiser and strategist Eric Tanenblatt, who plans to attend the retreat. “She created something of a movement and built a coalition of Republicans and independents and even some conservative Democrats.”

She's probably angling a 2028 run as these numbers clearly show an appetite for her in the GOP electorate. The problem though is that 2028 will be a free for all as Trump won't be running.
This is plausible, although I also wonder if she's preparing for a possible return to the race if Trump is convicted in New York.
Trump is already the nominee, i have no idea what her "returning to the race" would even entail in that scenario.
