Haley: Trump ‘threw a temper tantrum’ in New Hampshire speech
The Hill ^ | 01/25/2024 | LAUREN SFORZA

GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley blasted former President Trump’s New Hampshire victory speech, calling it “a temper tantrum.”

Haley appeared confident at a campaign event North Charleston, S.C., Wednesday night, after losing to the former president in the first-in-the-nation primary on Tuesday by about 11 percentage points, according to Decision Desk HQ. The former South Carolina governor criticized Trump’s rhetoric, where he tore into Haley after she spoke to her supporters.

“We were very excited last night because we saw that we had gone up 25 points in a month. And we were thrilled,” Haley said, speaking of the Granite State primary. “So we got out there and we did our thing and we said what we had to say. And then Donald Trump got out there and just threw a temper tantrum.”

Quote from The Conservative Treehouse:

John Bingham, framer of 14th Amend. – “I do not stand here to cavil with men who are not read in the horn-books of the law; but I assert that every man born within the limits of the Republic, or under its flag at sea, of parents who were not the subjects of any other sovereignty, are, in the very words of the Constitution, natural born citizens.”

Rep Bingham quote is from Cong. Globe, 37th, 2nd Sess., 407 (1862)

“Haley’s parents were Indian immigrants who did not become U.S. citizens until after her birth in 1972. Her father, Ajit Randhawa, became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 1978, Haley’s office said. Her mother, Raj Randhawa, became a U.S. citizen in 2003, a year before Haley won a seat in the S.C. House.”

Looking back now, she may have viewed the occasion of her post-NH primary speech as an opportunity to draw real blood against Trump, and see what transpires thereafter. She may have thought that, with this rare and fleeting chance to get worldwide exposure for her basic anti-Trump campaign message (narrative?), she might gain the kind of traction she’s needed, but that has been so elusive for her up (at least until now).

If so, she may not be ready to bear up against the (justified) blowback for what she’s done.

She really did do DJT dirty.

She’s desperate!
….I can’t listen to her shrill, shrieking voice

She definitely threw a temper tantrum on F&F this week……the folks in the diner(with Lawrence Jones) gasped when she suggested Fox (on air) of not being truthful about her numbers

“He pitched a fit, he was — he was insulting, he was doing what he does, but I know that’s what he does when he’s insecure,” she continued. “I know that’s what he does when he is threatened. And he should feel threatened without a doubt.” She also challenged Trump to debate her as she is his only major remaining challenger in the GOP primary race. The former president, who claimed he would beat Haley in a cognitive test, has declined to debate any of his primary rivals, arguing that he does not need to debate due to his strong lead in national polls. “Bring it Donald, show me what you got,” said Haley, who served under the Trump administration as the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. __________ Bring it? Show her what he's got? What she's got, with her schtick, is punk, unaccountable, random, adolescent taunting. Trump should flick her off his shoulder like dandruff. Oh well. This is arguably what we get, or what we deserve, when we encourage non-NBCs to try to grab the ultimate U.S. political brass ring.

If I was Trump I would just go ahead and start campaigning against Biden and pretend Haley doesn’t even exist (because for electoral purposes she doesn’t). Don’t respond to anything she says, just utterly ignore her.

“Just because we are badly out gunned and out classed and have lost every engagement so far... is no reason to QUIT”...

Give it up Nikki. We aren’t voting for a RINO again. Didn’t the GOP learn it’s lesson with Songbird McQueeg?

I do not understand why is going down this road of (the same one the Democrats are traveling on) with just calling President Trump names.

Does she think this will win over Trump supporters?

The Democrats have tried for years to demonize Trump and it has just made him stronger. Does she really think her small voice is going to add much to what the Democrats are already doing?

If Haley was serious she would talk policies. How would she make America energy independent. How to beat inflation. How to end the endless wars. How to secure the border and how to return the illegals back to there own countries.

These are the concerns of the American People.

(This was a rhetorical question as we know she does not want to do any of those things and so is careful not to say what she would do if she should become President.)

***********

She has stepped into the quicksand of desperation to the point where anyone who once may have supported her is seeing what she is truly all about: blind ambition.

She is acting more like Hellary everyday.

Excellent observation.

Nimarata wailing from the bunker, hoping she can win over more independents and democrats, while alienating 50% of the electorate. She’s a genius.

Republicans in South Carolina are hoping she lasts all the way to February 24.

Like Nicki’s manager says, win or lose as long as the check cashes.
