  1. Nikki, like all the rest, is afraid.
    Imagine her mentioning slavery with a maga GOP listening .
    She knows they are trying to make slavery disappear like the rest of them. Ask DeSantis.
    Trump owns them all.
    He’s the ultimate great white hope.
    “The people” believe this.
    They’d love him to be a dictator.
    Nikki is no dummy .
    But that’s the thing about trump.
    You must set yourself on fire to keep him warm.
    The people think
    he’s not gonna do it to them.
    Hey maga, trump demands your loyalty.
    Or else.
    You are blinded by your lust for his promises.

  2. It continues to amaze me how poorly educated people are in the US. The southern states left the union and were then invaded by forces from the north. Most of the people that fought in the War Between the States never owned slaves. They fought for their homes and lives. Think about it, the north was rich with industry and the south had what they needed to operate the industry. Big Cotton. Nookie Haley may be American but she knows very little about southern tradition.

  3. What a loser she is
    Nikki got no idea about Civil War

  4. Nikki Haley is the new John Kerry

  5. THAT WAS A STUPID RESPONSE – THE BIGGER ISSUE??? NOBODY ASKED
    ABOUT A LESSON…..

  6. Holy cow! I had no idea Nikki Haley is from Bangladesh!

  7. I agree,but not only. She is the Face and Soul of the Party(She can save face for Biden and Trump and the Supreme Court too) Vivek is the kremlin’s puppet (74% of kremlin bots are for him), Chris is the dividing arrow on the bridge, Ron is not even a gentleman, a spanish market woman, only Trump is only for Trump is already (insane), but very dangerous, because in collusion with the axis of evil, they have dirt on him (cash accounts to R, N.K, Ch).

    The democrats, in order to avoid dictatorship, are partly already behind Nicky, but only in the primaries.

    The Republicans are deluding themselves with their advantage in Congress and are preparing a new campaign on the Capitol, fueled by the remaining 26% of bots from outside America.

    But everyone needs to talk about this, because Americans are easy to influence, as N. said in 2001, and in 22 years they have all had such an impact that the CW may begin.

  8. The Republican party was formed in the effort to prevent the spread of slavery to the new western states. It's ironic, then, that appologists for American slavery are bringing the party of Lincoln to a shameful end.

  9. The Civil War was about states' rights, any other statement is foder. That "journalist," is a shill!

    PS: Not a Haley fan, but her answer was correct.

  10. Nikki can't get it right about slavery,knowing sc was one of the biggest slave state,vote blue💙

  11. What the hell is going on in the head of Niki Hailey head the worse episode of American killing American was over slavery , YES at the end of the civil war more than 620,000 American died during civil war white men fighting over the golden precious bodies of African people,how did Niki Hailey forget that

  13. Love how Fox edited out the long pause by Nikki… when she was asked about the civil war 😂

  14. Nimarata Nikki Randhawa Haley doesn't have the courage or pride to use her god-given name…

  15. What a Bunch of BS ! Nikki did not know her history. end of Story.

  16. Why did this guy not ask Governor Haley a relevant question? Obviously just another Mealy Mouth Leftist. The former governor's answer was in fact, primarily correct.

  17. Nikki, Nikki, how in the WORLD could you have given such a horrible non-answer?! Maybe you could have said something like:

    "What do you want me to say? Of course, slavery was absolutely the primary and driving issue for the politicians of the States that rebelled and for the 31% of Southern citizens who held slaves. We know this because three states said so explicitly in their acts of secession from the Union and several of the ten others clearly supported the right of states to retain slavery. But let's not kid ourselves. their claims of what we today call 'federal overreach' and loss of state sovereignty was really just a doge to preserve an evil. And ending that evil cost the lives of seven hundred-thousand Americans."

    I think that might have worked a little bit better.

  18. Where is the controversy here? Perhaps she thought that everyone knew the traditional accepted answer was slavery, and assumed the questioner was looking for a non traditional answer such as the politics involved between the Northern and Southern states. Personally I was confused as to why such an obvious question would be asked. I certainly didn't see any racial undertones in her answer. This is the media trying to make her out to be some type of racist which is ludicrous. They did the same thing to Trump and they will attempt to do it to her. Racism is the only card the democrats can run on. They certainly won't be running on Biden's accomplishments.

  19. She is a awful candidate. Vivek 2024

  20. She's never gonna catch Trump 😅

  21. Hailey is gross. Why is Fox Ignoring the Barbaric Slaughter of Catholics in Nigeria, by Islamic Jihadists ON CHRISTMAS DAYS. THIS IS A FAILED NEWS CHANNEL. GOOD REPORTERS REPORT THE NEWS, NOT PETTY POLITICAL SQUABBLES. Stop Acting like MSMBC and the likes of them

  22. Imagine the ignorance not knowing about National Banking Acts of 1863

  23. Nikki, it was the Republican Party that led the effort to abolish slavery. That is one of the easiest questions on the US citizenship Test. You would have failed. People like you to be upfront with them, not insult their intelligence.

  24. How do we know if she is not a racist? Clearly, she has little regard for the pain and suffering of black people in this country (but all in on Israel). All I know is Trump would nailed that question and would have moved on. Trump 2024!

  25. I live in New Hampshire. I was going to vote for her, now I flipped! I will now vote for Trump 🗳

  26. For all you people out there claiming that the democrats are actually the party of slavery, why is it that democrats will never hesitate to say that the civil war was caused by slaver, and never hesitate to take down confederate statues, etc. It is always republicans perpetuating the lost cause myth and trying to downplay the role of slavery in America's past and appease southern voters.

    Why would Republicans jump through all these hoops and tiptoe around this issue if democrats are the party of slavery and the confederacy?

  27. Government's ability to fight for your freedom…to own other people.

  28. Read what Lincoln said when he supported the secession of Texas from Mexico then apply it to the southern states. This "war" was to keep the rich southern states in the union to fund his government. PERIOD. Shall I provide you with Lincolns speech? ok I will.

    In a speech delivered in the House of Representatives on January 12, 1848, Abraham Lincoln expressed his views on the Mexican-American War and, by extension, the secession of Texas from Mexico. Here is an excerpt from that speech:

    "ANY (emphasis mine) people ANYWHERE (emphasis mine), being inclined and having the power, have the RIGHT (Emphasis mine) to rise up, and shake off the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable, – a most sacred right – a right, which we hope and believe, is to liberate the world. Nor is this right confined to cases in which the whole people of an existing government, may choose to exercise it. Any portion of such people that can, may revolutionize, and make their own, of so much of the territory as they inhabit."

    What changed? He became President and realized the southern states leaving would seriously defund his government. Had zero to do with slavery. remember…he engage in the war by not removing federal troops from a sovereign nation…the WAR had zero to do with slavery….dont confuse secession with war….Lincoln could have let them leave peacefully. end of debate.

  29. AGW does not care what it believes; AGW-denying anti-abortion is NOT in its racist sadistic insurrectionist KKKible denying, election-denying, dictators Putin and DJT loving KlanMUNIST.

  30. ~~~~~~ The Declaration of Causes of Seceding States Georgia
    "This question was before us. We had acquired a large territory by successful war with Mexico; Congress had to govern it; how, in relation to slavery, was the question then demanding solution. This state of facts gave form and shape to the anti-slavery sentiment throughout the North and the conflict began. Northern anti-slavery men of all parties asserted the right to exclude slavery from the territory by Congressional legislation and demanded the prompt and efficient exercise of this power to that end. This insulting and unconstitutional demand was met with great moderation and firmness by the South. We had shed our blood and paid our money for its acquisition; we demanded a division of it on the line of the Missouri restriction or an equal participation in the whole of it. These propositions were refused, the agitation became general, and the public danger was great. The case of the South was impregnable. The price of the acquisition was the blood and treasure of both sections– of all, and, therefore, it belonged to all upon the principles of equity and justice."

  31. The civil war was about whether or not states could secede. Lincoln actually said that he was willing to keep slavery or abolish it, whichever would keep the United States together.

  32. I'm not a fan of Haley but it should be a 100% given that slavery is bad and no explanation is necessary.

  33. Her argument is strange. That people have a right to own slaves is none of the federal government’s business. Am I missing something here??

  34. 1:40 this guy can't be anymore wrong
