Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley (R), now running in the Republican presidential primary, previously said Americans should not describe illegal aliens “as criminals,” suggesting that doing so is “disrespectful.”
In July 2015, a month after then-GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump announced his candidacy with a speech centered on stemming illegal immigration, Haley joined a panel with the Aspen Institute moderated by then-CEO Walter Isaacson.
Isaacson, in his final question, asked Haley “As a family of immigrants from India, how does that inform your thinking on the immigration debate and what do you feel about the tone of the immigration debate as it has recently turned?”
Haley, in response, said that while Americans are rightfully frustrated with illegal immigration at the United States-Mexico border, she urged the audience not to use language like “criminals” to describe illegal aliens because “they’re not.” She said:
So I think that what we have to remember and what I’ve always believed is that we’re a country of laws. That is what’s made us strong so it’s incredibly frustrating for a lot of people when they see the illegal immigrants being able to come across. It really is astonishing that after all these years, D.C. can’t figure out how to build a wall. It really is, after all of what they spend.
Having said that, we are a country of immigrants. I am the proud daughter of Indian parents who reminded us every day how blessed we are to live in this country. They resent when people come here illegally. But let’s keep in mind, these people who are wanting to come here, they’re wanting to come for a better life too. They have kids too. They have a heart too, so we don’t need to be disrespectful. We don’t need to talk about them as criminals, they’re not. They’re families that want a better life and they’re desperate to get here.
[Emphasis added]
What we need to do is make sure we have a set of laws that we follow and we go through with that. I think that some things have been said that are unfortunate and wrong but I think we also need to remember, especially for all of us … tone and communication matters and people matter. We don’t ever need to talk about this in a cold-hearted way … be kinder than necessary.
Haley’s prior comments are contrasted against her recent statements, wherein she has vowed a “catch and deport” policy where the federal government is barred from releasing illegal aliens into the U.S. interior.

It is obvious Niki Haley is part of "what is wrong with our country" and in on the payroll of the globalist oligarchs.
Nope, most of the illegal aliens are 18 to 40 year old males.
Aspen institute... why does that sound familiar, was it in the news today or something...
oh yeah:
"Victim Virginia Giuffre states she slept with billionaire Tom Pritzker (another John Doe) "once"
Pritzker is a member of the prestigious Aspen Institute and Executive Chairman of Hyatt Hotels."
After what she did in South Carolina how is she even considered as president?
"Heels up" Haley is not even legally able to be president, but since she's an ass kissing Zionist, the law will be ignored.
Life is good for traitors:
Haley had an estimated net worth of $1 million in 2019. Her net worth grew to an estimated $8 million by 2022.
Haley is not and never will be presidential in any way shape or form. Her comments alone if people actually read or listen is enough to tell us she is not qualified to be in the oval office. Next there is the birth issue which sure enough will be a non issue to get her on the ballot, wake up people defend our nation and keep it AMERICAN.
Far to many wiggle words come out of Haley's mouth for her to be trusted to do what it appears she is saying she'll do. "...when you catch them, you deport them." Right, but knowing what I do about you that will turn into not catching them, which will mean not having to deport them.
"We don’t need to talk about them as criminals, they’re not." Yes they are. They broke multiple laws to get into the country. Breaking the law makes them criminals.
"They’re families that want a better life." Not the vast majority of them. Most of the current horde of invaders are military age men.
"We don’t ever need to talk about this in a cold-hearted way..." Calling a spade a spade is not unkind. It's simply being honest. And one thing that is far too lacking in Washington, DC, is honest discussion.
Oh, and the clincher that says exactly where she stands on illegal immigration is "… be kinder than necessary." Criminals don't warrant our kindness. The deserve their comeuppance which is immediate removal from the country. Do not pass go, do not collect thousands of dollars from struggling taxpayers' pockets. Get caught illegally entering the country a second time and the punishment should be severe.
No, Haley is not a valid candidate for the presidency. Not by a country mile.
I live in SC and will not vote for Haley. She is a Globalist and cares nothing for the American citizen. I will vote for Trump.
Trump needs a long game.
His 4 years were undone...in months.
Need 12 years...which means 2028 is the real fight.
1st Black female prez...VA Lt. gov. Winsome Sears, former Marine as Trump's VP!
Fuck this cunt, and the horse she rode in on.
...then there's the news story from a week or two ago, quickly memory holed by the MSM, that Nikki is taking big campaign $ from traditional Demonrat big $ donors.
