Haley Airs New Hampshire Ad Featuring Mother of Otto Warmbier
Ad Highlights Haley's Foreign Policy Experience and Contrasts Her Stance on North Korea with Trump's
- Nikki Haley, Republican presidential candidate and former U.S. ambassador to the U.N., is airing a three-minute ad in New Hampshire featuring Cindy Warmbier, the mother of Otto Warmbier who died after being detained in North Korea.
- The ad, which is part of Haley's closing argument before the New Hampshire primary, highlights her foreign policy experience and the strong relationship she built with the Warmbier family during her time as U.N. ambassador.
- In the ad, Cindy Warmbier praises Haley's strength and compassion, and credits her with encouraging the family to fight for justice and for Otto.
- The ad also seeks to differentiate Haley's stance on North Korea from that of former President Trump, who has been criticized for his positive comments about North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
- Haley's campaign and allied PACs have spent roughly twice as much on advertising in New Hampshire as Trump's political network, with the former president currently leading in the polls.
