Nikki Haley was the last Republican to drop out of the 2024 GOP Presidential Primary battle.
Unlike fellow RINOs Liz Cheney and George Bush, Nikki Haley swallowed her pride and threw her support behind Donald Trump.
And Nikki Haley just torched Kamala Harris with a reality check about January 6 that left Fox News viewers speechless.
Nikki Haley represents the Liz Cheney/Mitt Romney wing of the Republican Party.
She’s a pro-war, open-borders Republican.
But she’s also a team player and endorsed Donald Trump after she ended her failed Primary bid.
On Tuesday, Nikki Haley appeared for an interview with Bret Baier on Fox News Channel’s Special Report.
Haley admitted that she doesn’t agree with Donald Trump on every issue.
However, she said he’s an easy choice compared to Kamala Harris.
“It is clear, I mean, look, it’s like what I said at the Republican National Convention, you don’t have to agree with Trump 100% of the time to vote for him,” Haley said. “And so, for me, we have the choice, the choice is given – it’s either Donald Trump or it’s Kamala Harris, and for my family, what I’m looking at is the fact that my daughter says she can’t afford groceries, and I look at an economy that’s been tough for all of us.”
Haley said her son worries about how to pay rent in Kamala Harris’ economy.
She added that there is not a single issue she agrees with Kamala Harris on.
“All of these things have put us in a much more challenging position,” Haley said. “With Donald Trump, we know what we’re going to get,” she continued. “I don’t agree with Trump 100% of the time, but I don’t agree with Kamala Harris on anything.”
Haley told Baier she hasn’t spoken to Donald Trump since June but stressed the fact that “we’re on the same team.”
“It’s their campaign’s decision on what he needs and these last final days,” she said when asked if not being deployed by the campaign upset her. “It does not bother me at all.”
But what caught Baier by surprise was Haley’s comments about January 6.
Haley previously joined the chorus of folks who blame Trump for the events at the Capitol that day.
During the Primary, Haley attacked Trump’s policies and parroted the Left’s lies about him being dangerous and violent.
But she didn’t go after Donald Trump in this interview.
Instead, she ripped Kamala Harris for continuing to talk about January 6 over three-and-a-half years later.
“A lot of Americans have decided where they are,” Haley said. “While she wants to go back to January 6, what she doesn’t want to visit is what’s happened since January 6, because we’ve had four years of record inflation, we’ve had unconscionable amounts of illegal immigrants, 500,000 criminal illegals alone coming across that border.”
Haley almost made it through an entire interview without criticizing Donald Trump.
But she closed by bringing up comedian Tony Hinchcliffe’s joke about Puerto Rico at the Madison Square Garden rally on Sunday.
“This is not a time to have anyone criticize Puerto Rico or Latinos, this is not a time for them to get overly masculine with the bromance thing that they’ve got going on,” Haley said. “Fifty-three percent of the electorate are women – women will vote,” she continued. “They care about how they’re being talked to, and they care about the issues.”
“They need to remember that this is a time of discipline, and this is a time of addition,” she concluded.
Haley may have a point about picking up undecided women voters in the final days before the election.
But Donald Trump has proven himself as a political genius.
And the chances of him taking Haley’s advice are slim to none.
