"She's getting out in front of everything. And if you get out before the midterm elections, which could possibly go pretty badly, well, then that stain's not on you [because] you were already on your way out."

This is not the first time Scarborough has predicted a 2020 presidential run for the former South Carolina governor. In April, the morning host predicted Haley would defeat Trump in the GOP primary if he did seek reelection.

“I think Nikki Haley would beat Donald Trump,” Scarborough said. "I think if she ran in 2020 she would have a very good chance of being the first woman president of the United States.”

On Tuesday, Haley denied having any plans to seek the Oval Office in 2020.

"No, I'm not running for 2020," Haley, 46, told reporters while seated next to the president in the Oval Office.

"I can promise you what I'll be doing is campaigning for this one," she added. "So, I look forward to supporting the president in the next election."
