Former President Donald Trump threatened Wednesday to blacklist anyone who donates to Nikki Haley’s presidential campaign.
Trump wrote on Truth Social that anyone who makes a contribution to the Haley campaign “from this moment forth, will be permanently barred from the MAGA camp.”
“We don’t want them, and will not accept them,” he added.
Trump’s post did not specify whether he was referring only to donations to Haley’s campaign or whether the warning extended to any donations given to a pro-Haley political action committee.
Haley responded with a post to X inviting people to donate to her candidacy.
“Well in that case…donate here. Let’s Go!” Haley wrote alongside a link to a fundraising site.
The Trump and Haley campaigns did not immediately respond to requests for further comment.
NBC News confirmed that Haley, the former governor of South Carolina, will be in New York City on Monday and Tuesday for multiple Wall Street fundraisers, according to two campaign sources.
Haley, who has vowed to remain in the race, has touted her fundraising numbers since Trump’s projected win in New Hampshire, saying Wednesday that she raised $1 million in the 24 hours following the New Hampshire primary, a figure her campaign reiterated. NBC News is unable to independently verify the claim, because the Federal Election Commission has not yet released data for that period.
Trump’s campaign finished the third quarter of 2023 with more than $37 million on hand, while Haley’s campaign finished the quarter with more than $11 million, according to FEC filings. The third quarter ran from July through September.

RELATED: Breitbart’s Morris on ‘Kudlow’: Nikki Haley Is the Best Surrogate for Joe Biden
Published January 24, 2024
Breitbart News politics editor Emma-Jo Morris said Wednesday on Fox Business Network’s “Kudlow” that Republican presidential candidate former Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC) was “the best campaign surrogate for Joe Biden.”
Anchor Larry Kudlow asked, “What happened to last night? What happened to Nikki Haley? What happened to Donald Trump?”
Morris said, “You know Nikki Haley, he calls her bird brain and I kind of love that. The only thing that facilitates Bird Brain not being able to put her arms around what is going on is the fact she has massive donors. You have the LinkedIn founder. You have Koch. That’s why, as you said in your opening, she can’t talk about the open border because that’s not the issues that her string-pullers want to talk about. So, she gets to live in this delusion that she has a chance. People are funding that delusion and enabling that delusion.”

Former President Trump on Wednesday railed against GOP primary opponent Nikki Haley and warned that anyone who contributes to her campaign would be “permanently barred from the MAGA camp.”
“When I ran for Office and won, I noticed that the losing Candidate’s ‘Donors’ would immediately come to me, and want to ‘help out.’ This is standard in Politics, but no longer with me,” Trump wrote in a post on his Truth Social platform.
“Anybody that makes a ‘Contribution’ to Birdbrain, from this moment forth, will be permanently barred from the MAGA camp. We don’t want them, and will not accept them, because we Put America First, and ALWAYS WILL!” Trump continued, using the nickname “Birdbrain,” to refer to Haley.
Trump’s direct threat against Haley’s supporters signals a sharpening in his rhetoric, as the former president seeks to compel support from all corners of the GOP.
