Nikki Haley alleged she was set up by Democratic 'plant' after being asked what caused the Civil War

[noonereal]

She should have answered it honestly....It was over a state's right to leave the Union.

It does not matter anyway, she will lose to Trump in her home state.

Quick question.
Why did slave states try to leave the Union?
Get it?

It was a perfectly legitimate question to ask Haley, regardless of the politics of the person asking the question.

It’s also telling that Haley would perceive acknowledging the fact that the South started the war to preserve slavery as a political ‘gotcha.’

I can't belive she claims the person who asked the question was a plant.
Wtf was so tricky about the question that it should not just be answered?

Perceived oppression and threat of invasion.

It was like Sarah Palin claiming she was being set up by being asked what papers she reads.
Her answer was…..All of them

It was the law of the land at the time.....You revisionists seem to forget that.

What was "revised" idiot?

 

[Arlette]

It makes me snicker how “your type” insist the war was fought for the purpose of ending slavery.

Did she offer any evidence that the questioner was a plant or did she just make it up? She really is emulating Trump, impressive.

Softball question
She punted

Because, in spite of her history, she's still pandering to racists....



AKA pandering to Republicans.

The questioner was absolutely a plant - that was immediately evident; she was set up.

Abraham Lincoln started the war. How the hell can modern day posters still not understand he is who started the war. The guy diverted and that was her complaint. She asked for the next question.

You guys still think the shots at Sumter started the war do not understand the shots hit the fort walls. None of the troops in the fort were hit by the fire by the South. They might as well have been firing into the ocean.

I think she did mention that. Even Abraham Lincoln announced as he invade VA that his aim was to restore the union. Ergo the states rights to leave was what it was all about. It was why Abe invaded the South.

She is not facing backlash. My god, just because a gotcha was done to her by a Democrat, does not mean she faces backlash. And Slavery was not part of the Lincoln invasion.

Why didn't the smart ass ask her why George Washington started a war. Why did Washington commit treason?

I feel bad that you received a shitty education.

I feel amused that you are projecting that onto someone else.

That wasn't a "gotcha" question. It was a softball.
