Nikki Haleys response to Dylann Roof shooting up a church in the state that she governs and killing nine people hasnt always been perfect. In fact, its 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 Obamas 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.
Heres what she said about Trumps talking points to Charlestons 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.

“Between her and Lindsey Graham I say we send all Syrian jihadist directly to South Carolina.”
Yeah. What the hell is going on in South Carolina?
Why do I see an image in my mind of her in the Princess Leah role as she is chained to mitt Romney as Jabba the Hutt.
Go ahead Nickii, your view of the world is going to come crashing down around you. The trough is about to be kicked over.
Neither mom nor dad were naturalized citizens when she was born, back in 19sixtywhenever.
When your hopes of assention is Linda Graham, well
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Trump hasn’t shown any interest in nikki and she’s not taking it well... and women are very good at trying to get even.
She has been on my list even before she wimped out and took down the confederate flag. she’s weak and Trump does not need anyone that weak.
Trump is going to have some nice coat tails this election. If he pans out as promised and runs again in four years they’re gonna be yuge!
Maybe she should ask Hilary about the 4 she allowed to be murdered, dismembered, and drug around the streets of Benghazi if she doesn’t like multiple killings. Seems to me this is called an accessory after the fact?

She’s done; a singed pop tart..
Haley just laid her head across the tracks and a very powerful train is on it’s way.
I’m consistently amazed by the headline grabbers in the Republican Party who gain with the media by trashing the base and the nominee. Worked wonders for Jeb Bush, didn’t it?? He consistently got from 3 to 8 percent of the party vote in the primaries, despite spending $ 150 million. You don’t see this in the Dem party, as fractious as they can be, they don’t eat their own. Haley, obviously, wants to continue to do the Lindsay Graham/McCain thing with the press and become their darling and favorite quote. She obviously does NOT care about her national future in the party since she has made certain she has NONE.
The big mistake was electing Haley.
Sure was. She lied to the people, promised to keep the flag.
These so called “Republicans” and people who were elected by the Tea Party ALL ought to be purged. There is a fine Democrat socialist party just waiting for them. Just go.
Hammer hit nail.
Nikki can KMAA
Strong wonderful South Carolinians, who voted Trump in a big win, you can’t stand for this in your governor. How dare she.
I wish Nikki had been washed away in the floods.
Not one day goes by that we don’t have yet another supposed “conservative republcan” outed by Donald Trump, either directly or by self-exposure. The country can never pay him back for his continuing efforts to clean house.
She's acting on someone's orders.
The same group that is behind Romney and Kristol.
Something many weren't aware of or wanted to believe untrue. he has a solid ability to judge the character of folks and probably a serious data gathering structure for some of the folks/events going on.
You’d think there would be ONE MINORITY LEADER in our party that is able to understand Trump, but I’m still waiting. Cruz was there at the start, but disintegrated.
