In a recent stint on SNL, Haley didn't shy away from taking a jab at Trump's age. She basically hinted that he might be losing his wits, drawing a comparison to Joe Biden's mental competence.
Watch the video:
“I see dead people.” That’s exactly what voters will think if this race is between Trump and Biden in the fall.

Had a blast tonight on SNL! Know it was past Donald’s bedtime so looking forward to the stream of unhinged tweets in the a.m. pic.twitter.com/W43LlPOoi2
The skit comes off as rather unoriginal and uninspired, mirroring Nikki Haley herself. Trump fired back with a response that's short and sweet, labeling her as "Tricky Nikki" in a post he shared on Truth Social.
From WND:
Haley posted the "SNL" clip of herself on X, with a caption stating: "'I see dead people.' That's exactly what voters will think if this race is between Trump and Biden in the fall."
"Had a blast tonight on SNL! Know it was past Donald's bedtime so looking forward to the stream of unhinged tweets in the a.m."
Trump's response came on Truth Social within the hour of the NBC broadcast, simply saying, "Tricky Nikki" above the video of Haley's astonishing flip-flops.
Some responses online to Haley's tweet of her TV appearance include:
"Tell me you're Democrat without telling me."
"Tip to Nikki: Donald Trump rarely talks about you. In the meantime, you obsess over him 24/7. And not a good look to be embraced by the SNL leftists. We get you are a Democrat, but it's a Republican Primary you are running in."
Nikki Haley is continuing to insult the elderly in a sad way to try and insult President Trump. This is extremely hypocritical considering how upset she was when Don Lemon said she was 'past her prime.' Haley is alienating more voters and will suffer for it politically."
"You had a blast helping radical liberal Democrats on SNL who hate everything you stand for, bash the leader of the Republican party. This is why you're down by 40 points in your home state."
Nikki seems to struggle with comedy and trash-talking, unlike Trump, who makes it an art form.
She's the epitome of a dry D.C. politician, and that's pricesly why her poll numbers are in the dumps.
