TL;DR
AFP Action, a conservative group supporting Nikki Haley in the Republican presidential primary, acknowledged the difficulty of stopping Donald Trump from securing the nomination but reiterated its support for Haley in a closed-door briefing for major donors. The group has spent over $2 million on ads in South Carolina and plans to continue its ad buys for Haley. Despite the challenging path forward, the organization emphasized its focus on taking back control of the Senate as a top priority and will analyze data to allocate resources where they can have the greatest impact.
