S.C. Governor Nikki Haley Holds Nothing Back as She Compares Trump to Shooter Dylann Roof
Mediaite ^ | 2 Jun 2016 | Lindsey Ellefson

Posted on 06/02/2016 4:44:51 PM PDT by mandaladon

Nikki Haley‘s response to Dylann Roof shooting up a church in the state that she governs and killing nine people hasn’t always been perfect. In fact, it’s been cringeworthy at times, but she deserves credit from supporters for eventually removing the Confederate flag from state grounds and denouncing its use altogether. She has a history of coming around on issues and then really hitting them hard. For evidence of that, look no further than her fearless takedown of Donald Trump during her response to President Barack Obama‘s State of the Union address this year.

Now, she is joining Hillary Clinton and Alberto Ciurana in comparing the rhetoric of Roof and Trump, which is sure to go over about as well as her SotU response did.

Here’s what she said about Trump’s talking points to Charleston’s Post and Courier:

I know what that rhetoric can do. I saw it happen.

She went on to say that Trump has a responsibility to use “a civil, respectful tone” in his speeches and campaign process.

The twentieth century was the century of ideology.

The twenty-first century will be the century of the blood. Nikki Haley is reacting negatively to a powerful white man. That’s all this is.

We should have left her washing clothes and bathing in her ancestral murky waters of the Ganges River. This is the thanks we get for electing her for the conservative cause?

"Who the hell is she to determine what is an acceptable tone?"

Last time, didn't the Bolsheviks -- the Democrats -- didn't they run an ad accusing Ryan of murder? Throwing grandma off a cliff? If THAT is acceptable, anything goes.

Only a commie retard would write something like that about another commie retard. Haley is going to vote for Clinton so she really needs to just STFU.

America has admitted immigrants too fast. Most seem to be economic immigrants and don’t care to adopt American values and surely do not love America. That must have been the case with Nikki Haley’s parents. They didn’t raise her to love America, obviously.

Here is another anchor baby that wants to drive the bus, but down deep inside she hates America.

Nikki Haley is toast. The Trump boomerang effect is about to target another female politician unwise in the proper ways to attack Trump!

Buh-bye Nikki, U R Done.

Another STUPID female RINO governor. Is she popular in South Carolina? If so, why?

Yep. She’s definitely out to stick it to Whitey. White folks: You had better awaken to your identity as a people, and act accordingly, because the others have awakened to your identity as targets.

Nikki, honey, your career was nice and short. Ever watch magnesium ribbon burn? Well, it lasts only a couple seconds.
