Trump's name-calling must end: Nikki Haley - South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley on Tuesday came down hard on Republican presidential hopeful Donald Trump, saying that the real estate mogul has gone too far with his personal attacks on political rivals, including him calling US Senator Lindsey Graham an "idiot" during a rally.
"It's wrong," Haley said Tuesday during a Republican governors forum at the Aspen Institute in Aspen, Colorado. Haley added that though Trump is a supporter and friend, she said, "he's creating a very combative tone. Every day I feel like I'm hearing Mr. Trump attack another person personally."
Republicans have been facing trouble in dealing with Trump, who is one of 16 seeking the party's nomination for president. Trump gained in Republican opinion polls after he refused to apologize for saying Mexico is sending rapists and criminals to the U.S. The remarks sparked a huge outrage with Latinos slamming Trump.
Addressing a campaign in Graham's home state of South Carolina on Tuesday, Trump read Graham's private mobile phone number. In his speech Trump called Graham an "idiot" after Graham called him a "jackass."
Trump was slammed by fellow Republicans after he said Saturday that Arizona Senator John McCain is not a war hero.
Nikki, you ignorant slut!
“Lindy sucked up to Trump for cash and then some years later calls him a jackass.”
Exactly; that was the predicate behind Trump giving out Graham’s phone number. Graham had tried to hit up Trump for a big campaign contribution and then turned on him. Trump was just exposing Graham’s hypocrisy (and that of most politicians, for that matter).
Doesn’t she still have feces and condoms to clean up at Myrtle Beach from the Black Lies Matters Bike Week?
So Nicki how come you can’t spare a chastisement for Lindseed calling names first? Sitdown and STFU.
Everybody was cheering for her a few years back which only goes to show how we all have been deceived so many times. The Republicans of the Rockefeller persuasion have bought out the Southern vote as well as most of the country. They are sly and know how to play up to regional stereotypes. Watch out who is next?
It sucks to know that we have been deceived but at least we are finding out now and we now know enough to be looking for any rino clues. I am a Northerner but I was sickened how Niki Haley had to get out in front of the Social Justice Warriors to be the first one to take the flag down.
Who was that blubbering dame from the South Carolina assembly? Disgusting. Has she shed any public tears over the terrorist assassination of the five recruiters in Chattanooga?
Nikki are you crying? There’s no crying in politics.
Money from China, money from Mexico, money from Saudi Arabia etc. etc. Who knows how many billions of dollars have been carefully laundered by foreign interests? Who knows maybe even El Chapo? We are seeing how the Clintons launder their donations through their quasi legal foundation charity. Foreign interests of every kind can give their money to a friend in the United States. One of the things about having a multicultural country is that we can have a lot of exotic creeps creeping around. As if we didn’t have enough corrupt American people, now we have corruption from all over the world within our borders.
No more contributions to RNC, only individual conservative candidates, conservative pacs and good individual conservative candidates. We have other resources besides the RNC.
The Democrats are so tough because thy are hiding behind the media’s skirts.
We can prove Graham is an idiot. In fact, its better to be an idiot in his case than to purposefully undermine the will of the people who elected him. This after telling those people he wasn’t going to undermine their interests.
Lying, seditious squish would also be a factual representation of Sen. Graham. Would Nikki prefer that?
They all thought busting unions members wanted busted in the first place was going to tide them over. Whoops.
Hope she’s next.
Right on...she drops trou for anyone and everyone.. better be careful when trying to take the moral high ground...skank.
The first step to cutting the umbilical cord to the GOP is to remove our money from theirs.
Turns out she's just another RINO, useful idiot.
Go Trump and Cruz, no more Wussy Republicans.
Perhaps she could tell Linda and McCain and Perry that.
Nikki needs to mind her state and quit piling on.
Nobody asked her a damn thing
She has no respect or appreciation for our history. This is often true of immigrants from 2nd & 3rd World countries and their children. She repeated the Left's talking points regarding the flag - a flag with which she had no problem prior to being elected. At first opportunity, she revealed her true rage at the flag.
Did she complain about the flag while asking people to vote for her? No, she was okay with it. Then she saw the opportunity, or received orders from her handles, to trash a battle flag and lead a movement against it.
Now she is coming out against Trump, and not for the first time. Perhaps the rumors that circled her need to be given a second look.
The last time a republican governor in SC took that flag down a democrat won the next election in part by promising to put it back up. They are not good learners.
“he will destroy whatever credibility the GoP has”
I think it is a little late for that after seeing how the majorities elected to the house and senate are performing. The GOP leaders have destroyed any credibility the GOP may have once had before Trump ever announced by cooperating with Obama on everything he wants to do. It amuses me that people still seriously talk about the republican’s “credibility”.
