President Joe Biden and his allies are trying to recruit Republicans to help him take on Donald Trump. They face headwinds on several fronts.

Allies of President Joe Biden are ramping up a charm offensive aimed at getting high-profile Republicans and donors who won't support Donald Trump to back the Democratic president.

One adviser to a Democratic Biden donor who was aware of this outreach to Haley described the campaign to win her support for Biden as an"almost impossible task." Cheney appears to have come closer than any other high profile Republican to vocally supporting Biden over Trump — albeit without officially endorsing the president.The Biden team believes that big named endorsements would likely make the biggest difference later in the election cycle, after the president has firmed up support within his Democratic base and drawn a sharp contrast with Trump.

Some Haley donors cited policy disagreements with the Democratic administration as a big reason they couldn't commit to Biden yet, according to people familiar with the matter.Some Haley bundlers said a gift from Haley left them with the impression that the former South Carolina governor hoped they wouldn't donate to Trump, one of the people explained.

Conway told CNBC the party's co-hosts are mostly Democrats, but he plans"to try to get some more apostates to show up.""Everyone, including Republican voters who reject Trump's chaos, division, and violence, has a home in President Biden's campaign," said Munoz, the Biden campaign aide.
