Former 2024 GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley has responded to President-elect Trump's public snub about not choosing her to work in his administration.

“I had no interest in being in his Cabinet. He knew that," she said Wednesday about Trump on her Sirius XM show. "But to go a little further, his best friend, Steve Witkoff, came to our house in South Carolina, spoke to me and my husband, and basically wanted a truce between me and Donald Trump. And I told him at the time, there was no truce needed, that ... Trump had my support, there was no issue on my end."

Haley, a former South Carolina governor and U.N. ambassador in the first Trump administration, said she told Witkoff she didn't want or need anything in return for her support. 

"I said, ‘There's nothing I want.’ And there wasn't anything I wanted," Haley also said on the show. 

Haley acknowledged also having a conversation with Howard Lutnick, Trump's transition director, about potential Cabinet picks but she did not discuss a position for herself. 

Trump posted on social media shortly after winning on Nov. 5 that neither Haley nor former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo would be in his second administration.

"I know the game he was playing. I don't need to play that game," Haley continued. "Do I take it personally? No. That's who he is. He can be shallow at times and I think he showed that. But I don't have to be shallow. And at the end of the day, I'm very comfortable with where I am, and I'm comfortable with what happened."

Haley said she would advise Republicans to "understand this is not about a 'gotcha' or you know, celebrating too much" but that it's time to get to work. 

"We should pray that everyone that he appoints does well. We should hope for the sake of our kids and generations to follow us, that all of this goes forward," Haley said. "We've got a border that needs to be closed. We've got a debt that's out of control. We have a lot of regulations that have been holding back businesses."
