Trump discussed his rival during a rally in Concord, a city in New Hampshire.

"Nikki Haley is incapable of doing this job. She's not tough, shrewd or respected enough and will be unable to manage the challenges that come with it. She won't be able to cope while dealing with President Xi, Putin, and Kim Jong Un," said Trump.

He also added that the above-mentioned leaders are "very good people".

The former President convincingly won the opening Republican primary in Iowa on Monday, securing 52% of the votes. The next primary will take place on January 23rd in New Hampshire.

Trump Won't Aid Europe in the Event of an Attack

Meanwhile, in mid-January, Politico cited Commissioner Thierry Breton stating that in 2020, Donald Trump told the head of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen that he would never aid Europe in the event of an attack and declared NATO as "dead".

"You must understand, if Europe is attacked, we will never come to your aid and support," Trump is reported to have said.
