2月14日，前南卡罗来纳州州长、联合国大使尼基·黑莉正式加入总统竞选，这举动可能会让她成为前总统唐纳德·j·特朗普共和党内主要挑战者。
现年51岁的黑莉呼吁在党内进行“代际变革”，通过提前宣布，她抓住了一个在筹款方面领先的机会，并获得了潜在共和党初选选民的更密切关注。如果她想在共和党党内的早期民调中从较低的个位数上升，就需要这些选民的支持。
她在一段视频中宣布了这一消息，誓言要打击国内外的对手。
“现在轮到新一代领导人了，他们要重新发现财政责任，保护我们的边境，加强我们的国家、我们的骄傲和我们的目标。”黑莉在视频声明中说。
黑莉指责“社会主义左派”看到了“重写历史的机会”。
许多民调显示，在一个假设的多候选人竞选领域，特朗普赢得的共和党选民不到50%。她的加入突凸显，这位前总统在去年11月宣布的第三次总统竞选中未能吓退对手。此前，共和党人在中期选举中遭遇了历史性的失望
黑莉在国家舞台上最为人所知的是，她在联合国两年里一直在追求特朗普的外交政策议程。
在寻求更广泛的追随者时，黑莉计划转向文化问题，谴责民主党人在政府中推行“社会主义”，在学校中推行“沃克主义”，同时引用自己的传记，驳斥左翼人士关于美国存在“系统性种族主义”的说法。黑莉的父亲是印度移民，后来成为南卡罗来纳州第一位女州长，也是第一位非白人州长。
她的声明推翻了2021年的一项声明，即如果特朗普是候选人，她不会参加竞选。在离开特朗普政府时，她得到了特朗普的赞扬，而不是临别时的侮辱，这是一个罕见的人物。特朗普最近说，当黑莉告诉他她要试一试时，他对她说，“你应该试试。”
到目前为止，这位前总统还没有给黑莉起一个侮辱性的绰号，也没有以其他方式对她进行攻击，这或许表明，他仍然对黑莉怀有敬意，也表明他认为她不是一个重大威胁。
自2018年离开特朗普政府以来，黑莉一直在与这位前总统保持微妙的关系，一方面赞扬他在任期间的政策和成就，另一方面提出对共和党温和派有吸引力的批评。在2021年1月6日国会大厦遇袭的第二天，她说特朗普的行为“将受到历史的严厉评判”。
但她反对弹劾他在骚乱中的行为。2021年1月底，她在福克斯新闻上说:“在某种程度上，我的意思是，让他休息一下。”
在视频中，黑莉没有提到特朗普的名字，但她明确表示了与特朗普时代决裂的意图。除了呼吁新一代人站出来，她还敦促回归“仍然使我们的国家成为世界上最自由和最伟大的价值观”。
她说:“在过去的8次总统选举中，共和党人有7次在普选中失利。“这种情况必须改变。”
I在1月的采访中，黑莉提到了76岁的特朗普和80岁的拜登总统的年龄。她在接受福克斯新闻采访时表示:“我不认为要到80岁才能成为华盛顿特区的领导人。”
黑莉上个月在接受福克斯新闻采访时开玩笑说，她可能会竞选总统:“是的，我们需要一个新的方向。我能成为那个领袖吗?是的，我认为我可以成为那个领袖。”
为了跻身共和党总统候选人的顶级行列，黑莉的竞选团队把希望寄托在她在早期初选州做零售活动的技能上。她将于15日在南卡罗来纳州参加一场集会后前往新罕布什尔州，参加两场市政厅式的活动。她还计划下周前往爱荷华州。
黑莉出生于南卡罗来纳州班贝格(Bamberg)，毕业于克莱姆森大学(Clemson University)，在赢得南卡罗来纳州众议院三届任期中的第一届之前，她曾在自家的服装精品店工作，包括担任簿记员。
2010年，她当选为南卡罗来纳州州长，成为该州第一位担任州长的女性。2015年，一名白人至上主义者在查尔斯顿的一个非裔美国人教堂发生大规模枪击事件后，她呼吁从州议会大厦上移除邦联战旗。
多个消息来源本月向NBC新闻证实，在宣布竞选总统后，黑莉预计将前往总统候选人经常去的地方，包括前往新罕布什尔州进行为期三天的市政厅式竞选活动，之后还将在爱荷华州停留几天。
熟悉黑莉行程的消息人士告诉NBC新闻，在新罕布什尔州访问之后，她将于2月20日至23日前往爱荷华州。川普在11月宣布了他的第三次总统竞选。上个月，这位前总统在新罕布什尔州和黑莉的家乡南卡罗来纳州开始了他的竞选活动。
黑莉在38岁时竞选州长，作为反建制的茶党候选人之一，她在2010年当选州长，当时她被誉为共和党的下一代。
作为印度移民的女儿，她的个人经历——在南卡罗来纳州班贝格农村长大，很小的时候就面临种族主义——让黑莉在种族和性别等问题上有了可信度，而共和党人一直在努力与选民沟通这些问题。
在特朗普第一次竞选总统时，她对他提出了强烈批评，警告说他的脾气可能会在某一时刻引发世界大战，但在特朗普当选后不久，她还是接受了特朗普内阁的一个职位。
这位联合国大使在美国制裁朝鲜和退出伊朗核协议期间提升了她的外交政策资历。两年后她离开了，当时政府监管机构要求调查她作为大使接受礼物是否违反了联邦道德规定。
自离开特朗普政府以来，黑莉有时会批评这位前总统，但也经常赞扬他。
2021年1月6日国会大厦遇袭后，黑莉严厉谴责了特朗普。她在2021年接受Politico采访时表示，她对前总统对前副总统迈克·彭斯(Mike Pence)的攻击感到“厌恶”，彭斯拒绝推动特朗普关于大范围选举舞弊导致骚乱的虚假说法。
特朗普14日通过竞选发言人发表声明说，他祝黑莉“好运”，回应她的竞选声明。
“尽管妮基·黑莉说，‘我永远不会和我的总统竞选，他是一位伟大的总统，是我一生中最好的总统，’但我告诉她，她应该追随自己的内心，做自己想做的事。祝她好运!他说。
南卡罗来纳长期以来一直是最重要的早期初选州之一。在过去的40年里，除了一次选举之外，该州共和党初选的获胜者在每次选举中都赢得了该党的总统提名。
在进入2024年选举周期之前，州政治领导人告诉NBC新闻，他们正准备从两个“最喜欢的孩子”中选择一个，一个是已经在竞争激烈的初选中赢得该州的前总统，另一个可能是其他希望引起极大兴趣的人。
除了黑莉进入2024年共和党总统候选人初选之外，南卡罗来纳州共和党参议员蒂姆·斯科特(Tim Scott)似乎正在打造自己的总统竞选基础设施。斯科特将于16日向查尔斯顿县共和党发表讲话，然后他将前往爱荷华州进行倾听之旅，爱荷华州是共和党2024年日历上的第一个州。
黑莉于2004年首次竞选公职，击败了一位长期在任的州议会议员。在2012年的一次采访中，黑莉赞扬了希拉里·克林顿的竞选决定。
“我竞选公职的真正原因是希拉里·克林顿，”她说。“当涉及到女性竞选公职时，每个人都会告诉你为什么你不应该这样做，但这就是我们需要你这样做的所有原因，我走出那里时想，‘就是这样了。我正在竞选公职。’”
