When asked about presidential candidate Donald Trump's remarks on illegal immigrants from Mexico, South Carolina governor Nikki Haley told Meet the Press's Chuck Todd she understands Trump's "frustration" but that he needs to watch his "tone."

Haley went on to say "we" all need to be respectful of each other and nix the "harsh" language. Offensive talk "hurts people," and it's "just not necessary."

South Carolina governor Nikki Haley told Meet the Press’s Chuck Todd

She has just demonstrated in spades why she is part of the problem, not the solution. Merely by appearing on this Network.

Sent to the guv’s office...

You don’t get to tell me to “watch my tone” when discussing any topic, especially when it concerns ILLEGAL ALIENS in our country.

Kathryn Steinle, Ms. Haley...is but one example of the havoc many of these are causing, not even touching the economic impact to legitimate taxpaying citizens.

Epic fail on your part ma’am. Timidity in the face of this issue when strength is called for is a sign of failed leadership. Are you afraid to be called names by the leftists, the media and supporters of this invasion?

Nothing “good” comes from permitting this nonsense to continue unabated...or even encouraged when our so called “leaders” whimper in the face of criticism over a legitimate and sovereign nation defending its borders.

Good day.

Could it be that Mr. Trump was saying what a LOT of Americans say everyday?

She is right. Describing illegal immigrants as rapists was a blunder,

There are stories everyday about an illegal raping someone, including children.

How is it a blunder?

She is right. Describing illegal immigrants as rapists was a blunder, and the Democrats and the media would rather talk about the blunder than about illegal immigration. We need a nominee and a president who thinks before he talks.


So nobody’s feelings gets hurt, right?

Some fraction of illegal aliens are rapists. So is some fraction of men. You don’t go around describing men in general as rapists.

This bimbo is part of the problem.

Trump's meteoric rise in the polls is due to his willingness to say things that Dim and Republican politicians refuse to speak to—illegal immigration—and to do so in plain language, not diplomatese.

This country is in desperate straits and Haley and other establishment babblers are telling Trump to “tone it down” because they don't want the public’s attention drawn to their collective, colossal failure to secure our borders and protect our lives, liberty, property, and prosperity.

There is no reason at all for any American citizen to have to tolerate even one illegal alien criminal of any sort in their midst.

There is no reason for any American to have to tolerate even one illegal alien in their country.

This is our country.

I sense a growing anger out there and Mr. Trump is just capitalizing on it.

Uh, when is someone going to demand that Liberals ‘watch their tone’? They constantly call people racists, bigots, and homophobes.

Or do they get a free pass on ‘tone’?

First, he was clear saying not all illegals were rapist. He even said there are no doubt "good illegal immigrants"

Second, yes some men are rapist, we have enough to deal with already. Why should we be adding to the already existent problem?
