Nikki Haley Slanders Democrats Like Ordinary Trump, Still Will Lose SC Republican Party Primary To Marjorie Taylor Greene

Nikki Haley is not subtle. She has seen which way the wind is blowing, and it is not in the direction of Liz Cheney or anyone else facing the MAGA mob. Haley is a shallow opportunist who believes in little more than her own political breakthrough. This week, the former South Carolina Governor spoke at the Republican Lincoln Convention in Iowa, and her It sounded like the former governor of Alaska.
HALEY: The days of being nice should end. That doesn’t mean we have to be disrespectful. I wear tacos. It is not a fashion statement. I use it to kick. But I always kick with a smile. We have to fight for America’s promise.
Well, first of all, heels are a fashion statement, as they serve no other useful purpose. Maybe they’re portable stools if you’re short, but Haley is 5-foot-6. Only the top cabinet where she hid her dignity is seemingly out of her reach. It is disturbing that a former UN ambassador now defines diplomacy as kicking people in the butt with her Manolo Blahniks, and stating that she always kicks “with a smile” is not encouraging. People who attended the lynchings often grinned from ear to ear. This is how sociopaths roll.
What’s especially insulting is that Haley suggests the “days of being nice should it’s over “when those days are over. Haley’s political party refused to accept the results of a free and fair election because a Democrat won, and violent supporters of his former boss, Donald Trump, stormed the United States Capitol United in January, not pleasant, not even superficially polite.
Republicans wickedly claim Lincoln’s mantle while flying the strange flag of those who aimed at him to kill him. During his second inaugural address, When the nation was still at war, Lincoln said:
With malice towards nobody; with charity for all; firmly in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive to finish the work in which we are; to heal the wounds of the nation; to take care of the one who will have endured the battle, his widow and his orphan, to do all that he can achieve and to cherish a just and lasting peace between us and with all nations.
There was no trace of Lincoln’s generosity of spirit and moral leadership in Haley’s comments. On Twitter on Thursday, Haley only escalated the toxic rhetoric. Damn, he’s running.
Haley stated (in English with racist subtitles):
Today’s Democrats don’t just blame America. They don’t even believe in America. And that’s why they don’t deserve to lead the United States.
Good morning ended fast! Haley is gone total fascist. Recent history has also been ignored. It wasn’t the Democrats who rejected democracy. If you believe in America, let the Americans vote even if you are pretty sure they won’t vote for you (rude!). Also applaud Tinkerbell coming back to life.
Five years ago when she and her South Carolina partner Tim Scott endorsed Marco Rubio for president, all presented themselves as the multicultural children of the Reagan Revolution. Democratic Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan warned his party in 1981 that the The Republican Party had become a “party of ideas.” Sure, all those ideas were terrible, but at least they existed. Haley has gone from criticizing the ideas of her opponents to belittling their patriotism. That’s toxic in general, but we should look under the white hood and make the most sinister argument: “Today’s Democrats” include an overwhelming number of minorities.
Blacks make up 27 percent of South Carolina’s population, and 30 percent of South Carolina voters are registered Democrats. President Joe Biden won 96 percent of those voters. This is not complex math. Haley may pretend color avoidance, but it’s professional policy. He knows there are more Jim Clyburns in his home state than there are Tim Scotts.
He disagreed with Republicans often, but he respected the party. But how can you respect a party that is now active … https://t.co/Z2wo1wE3XS

So when Haley slanders the “Democrats,” she is tacitly asserting that most minorities do not believe in America or deserve to lead it. It is the new way of saying “the word with n” without saying “the word with n”. And she’s not just a random Twitter troll. It is setting the stage to completely marginalize the “Democrats.” They are not “really” American, so any election they win is inherently fraudulent.
With malice to all different and charity to none, Haley is ready to kick our teeth, but don’t worry, her smile will remain intact.
