I will happily donate as much as I can afford to encourage Haley to run as a third party candidate.

She'll never do that. What might happen is she gets picked by the GOP as their candidate over Trump.

Honestly I don't even know that I prefer Haley to Trump. I'm afraid she'll be just as bad as Trump policy-wise but more effective politically. If nothing else, Trump mobilizes his opposition's base. Biden might still win against Trump but, but can he beat a kinda boring (compared to Trump) candidate?

If she ran as a third party candidate, both she and Trump would be guaranteed to lose. Thus guaranteeing Biden the victory.
