‘Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley, who is facing backlash over her response to a question about the Civil War at a New Hampshire campaign event, alleged without evidence Thursday that that the questioner was potentially a Democratic "plant."’

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

The former governor alleged the question that landed her in hot water this week regarding the cause of the Civil War was the work of Democrats.

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.’

And if believe the north went to war to end slavery you are a fool. It was to preserve the Union.

Since when is the academic question of the causes of the War of Northern Aggression an appropriate one for someone purportedly running for President of the US?

She will not be the Republican nominee, so who cares?

That answer's gonna go over like a lead balloon. Seeing as people are just finally starting to warm up to her as a possible Trump alternative, she sounds like she's descending into conspiracy theories to explain her screw up.
Oh well, Trump it is.

Progs would vote Gus Hall into office.

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

How is Nikki involved with slavery? Why not ask her to explain the moon?

I feel bad that you received a shitty education.

Quick question. How many times was slavery mentioned in the articles of confederation?

She was Governor of South Carolina. South Carolina was the first state to secede. And it was the last state to take down the confederate flag.

The question has a simple answer that is about 80% accurate. Nikki knew that. And she also knew Republicans hate that answer. So she fumbled it.

So you believe the audience had some ignorant people asking her questions??? That is how I size it up. Slavery has died out 155 years ago. It seems stupid to dwell on slavery.

Why is this relevant to Nikki?

She should have ignored the fake news pawn.
