Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) argued Wednesday that former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley suspending herRepublicanpresidential campaign was overdue, stating it was about time.

Pauls statement was made about an hour ahead of Haley announcing the end of her campaign following her Super Tuesday losses. Paul had advocated against Haley being the Republican Partys 2024 nominee, launching the Never Nikki movement in January ahead of the Iowa caucuses.

You know, I think its about time, and I think she represents a wing I am not a big fan of, sending more money overseas when we can barely take care of problems here at home, Paul said on Fox Businesss Mornings with Maria. So I think the primary is over now. Its been over for some time, but this morning, it will officially be over, and we move on to the fall. And there will be a great contrast to be drawn in the fall, and I look forward to that.

Pauls Never Nikki announcement was made after he said he would make a statement on the 2024 presidential race, clarifying he would never endorse Haley but did not specify whom he would endorse. The Kentucky senator did say there was a lot to like about former President Donald Trump and that he had also spoken to independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

As of early Wednesday afternoon, Paul has not made an endorsement for president.
