Spencer Zwick, the money maestro for Sen. Mitt Romney’s (R-Utah) 2012 presidential bid, is joining Nikki Haley’s 2024 fundraising team, Axios has learned.
Why it matters: Establishment Republicans are lining up behind the former UN ambassador and South Carolina governor as the GOP’s best candidate to stop former President Trump in the Republican primary – and ultimately beat President Biden in November.
- Ken Griffin, the GOP megadonor who has been shopping around for an alternative to Trump, hinted this week that he is leaning toward Haley in 2024.
- JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon, who still considers himself a Democrat, has been having private conversations with Haley and thinks she has the potential to bring the country together, Axios scooped Tuesday.
