Former President Donald Trump slammed former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley for staying in the Republican presidential race on Tuesday and called her an "imposter".
The former president spoke to supporters, who chanted "bird-brain" in New Hampshire on Tuesday night following his projected win in the state's first-in-the-nation Republican primary.
Trump said to a cheering crowd: "Who the hell was the imposter that went up on the stage and claimed a victory? She failed badly. She had a very bad night."
Haley also spoke to supporters on Tuesday night and said she's "a fighter" and that the race is "far from over" as she gets ready for the Republican primary in her home state of South Carolina.

Trump also pointed out in his speech that Haley came in third place in last week's Iowa caucuses after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who dropped out of the race on Sunday and endorsed Trump.
The former president said: "Ron beat her also. He came in second and he left. She came in third and she's still hanging around."
Trump's win in New Hampshire on Tuesday likely solidified his GOP nomination, sending him straight to a rematch with President Joe Biden in November for the general election.

Trump has used his victory to try to pressure Haley to drop out, accusing her of helping Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris by staying in the race.
Taylor Budowich, CEO of Make America Great Again Inc., in a statement on Tuesday: "Nikki Haley said she's running to stop the re-election of Harris-Biden. Yet, without a viable path to victory, every day she stays in this race is another day she delivers to the Harris-Biden campaign.
