Haley Mute on Why Primary Voters Should Pick Her Over Trump

Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley on Sunday dodged questions about how she will be different from former President Donald Trump, instead deflecting by saying that she is focused on defeating President Joe Biden.

"I don't focus on President Trump," Haley told "Fox News Sunday" when asked why a Republican should chose her over Trump. "It's amazing that the media wants to talk about that so much. I am focused on Joe Biden."

Haley slightly touched on the issue in the Sunday interview, saying, "I think we need new energy going in. I think we need to leave the status quo of the past and start looking ahead."

But in general when Fox News host Shannon Bream, who conducted the interview, tried to pin Haley down, the former South Carolina governor and U.S. ambassador to the United Nations made statements that avoided a direct answer.
