Tuesday, on the heels of her second-place finish in Iowa a night earlier, former Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC), a candidate for the GOP presidential nomination, reacted to comments from MSNBC host Joy Reid claiming a “brown lady” could not be the nominee of the GOP with Donald Trump still around.

“The elephant in the room, she’s still a brown lady that’s got to try to win in a party that is deeply anti-immigrant,” Reid said during MSNBC’s coverage of the Iowa caucus outcome. “It’s still a challenge. I don’t see how she becomes the nominee of that party with Donald Trump still around. I can’t picture it happening. Maybe it could happen. Ron DeSantis’ only argument for staying in it, is he’s the white guy that he can still make the appeal to white people.”

Haley rejected Reid’s analysis.

Why even respond to someone like Reid ...

Like wrestling with a pig. You only get muddy and frustrated.

In her defense nikki hankles doesn't actually know anything about America. It wasn't part of her cultural upbringing.

Maybe that's why Presidents are required to be NBC.

Shame on Breitbart.“

Breitbart is not what it was at all. A lot of rat moles and rino’s are there now. It was targeted and to an extent corrupted.

Nikki continued...and that’s why I ripped down the flag...

'...she’s still a brown lady that’s got to try to win in a party that is deeply anti-immigrant,”

Objecting to ILLEGAL immigration is not being 'anti-immigrant'. Lots of people who are themselves immigrants (or whose close relations were) despise illegal immigration. Those people did things the right way, and now their taxes are paying for cheaters.

Soooo, It’s about the color of your skin and not your character?

I can’t keep up..

We have always been a racist nation—we still are—its just once whites were on top, now its blacks. More racist in black communities (but they learned it from whites) Making Blacks victims (for votes) was a deep crime.

Yep. Reid projecting her shallowness trying to blame everything on race. Plus ...

"... she’s still a brown lady that’s got to try to win in a party that is deeply anti-immigrant,” Reid said

No, the Republicans are not "deeply anti-immigration". We're deeply anti-totally-out-of-control-immigration.

“We’re Not a Racist Country — We’ve Never Been a Racist Country”

Considering what she did in South Carolina, when she wasn’t trying to get Trump votes, I’d say the above is a FLAT-OUT LIE, regarding what she actually believes.
