Nikki Haley’s GOP response last night was a robotic Donald Trump/Ted Cruz bashing speech over illegals invading this country and Muslims. Now we know why the GOP picked her to give the GOP response to Obama’s State of the Union. Nikki Haley got approval from GOP leaders to bash Trump and Cruz in her SOTU response before actually giving it.

Nikki Haley, the South Carolina governor hand-picked by House Speaker Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI)56%
and Senate Majority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY)46%
to give the Republican response to President Obama’s State of the Union addressed, confirmed Wednesday morning that she did indeed target GOP frontrunner Donald Trump and that the speech was approved in advance by Republican leaders.Probably because Chris Cuomo isn’t the sharpest knife in the drawer, Don Lemon was rousted out of bed early to interview Haley on CNN’s “New Day.” Haley not only confirmed she was targeting Trump, she seemed to compare him to the rioters in Ferguson and Baltimore.
LEMON: I think I want to start with that soundbite. You said the ‘loudest voices in the room.’ Was that comment directed at Donald Trump?
HALEY: Partially him, but a lot of people. You know, a lot of what I was talking about is that we’ve seen across our country — if you look at Ferguson and Baltimore we are seeing that people have to be loud, they have to be angry to have their voices heard.
Haley want on to say that, “I’m very thankful Speaker Ryan and Senator McConnell let me give the speech I wanted to give.” When asked if the GOP leaders approved of her text in advance, she confirmed, “They did.”
On NBC’s “Today Show,” Haley told Matt Lauer, “Mr. Trump has definitely contributed to what I think is just irresponsible talk.”
Haley enjoyed a nice round of love of love from both NBC and CNN.
Nikki Haley, another fraud, elected as a Tea Party candidate in 2010 has come full circle to one of the establishment hacks. Haley sucks up to Al Sharpton, took down the Confederate Battle flag from the South Carolina capitol and criticized Trump and Cruz just like a good little GOP robot last night.
Let’s remember that this is the same Nikki Haley who in years past had been vicisouly smeared by the DNC as the next Sarah Palin. Now, Nikki Haley is loved by the Democrats and the media. Power corrupts.
