When she launched her national spotlight tour as governor of South Carolina by ordering the removal of the Confederate flag outside the state house. Once you give an inch, they take 10,000 miles. Her decision back then has led to the attempted erasure and villainization of American historical figures on both sides of the Mason-Dixon.

Haley is an anchor baby. She has no respect for US history I guarantee you.

South Carolina:

1860 - first state to secede from the Union due to an overreaching federal government
("But, but. but, slavery" remarks certain to be incoming)

2015 - first state to kowtow to those seeking to erase our nation's history

You make a good point, 'Tide.

Can’t believe this woman was ever appointed as UN Ambassador. Who the hell did that?

It is a wonderment how she carried so many votes in the primary. Some counties were over the top with her. What are these people looking at and thinking.

If only we had a way to figure out what was on their minds at the time...

Oh, I bet there is. A number of states wrote out there articles of secession and listed the main problems as they saw it in their own words.

That way history would be unambiguous about the root causes. But these articles aren't discussed now. Ever wonder why?

Research their own words and people might be surprised.

She was probably told to do so by the Marxist uniparty globalist. The only way they will be able to achieve a one world government is to destroy America's traditional values, everything our nation was built upon that made us great. Like it or not, Trump is the only candidate standing against them. Thus the desperation of the globalist(Dems & Republicans)to remove him.

Haley is the Unity party candidate and Desantimious is the Paul Ryan, Bushiest globalist party candidate.

Both won’t last till April as Vivek has dropped out and is supporting the next President of these United States of America,

That's the truth. Unfortunately, schools don't want student to research anything anymore. They only want their students to regurgitate the tripe they feed them in the classrooms without question.

She lost me when she signed the bill to remove the Confederate flag. Funny how tragic events all end up going one way, huh?

Did the removal of the flag fix racism? No, things are demonstrably worse. Did THIS help relations after St. George OD'd on drugs?



No, things only got worse. In fact, this level of sadistic, twisted virtue signaling is about as helpful as politicians wearing Viking helmets after another black thug has randomly shot a white child. It's fricking insulting.

Yep, Haley is an interloping, neocon pos. A shame she didn’t get 0% last night.

By doing this she showed incredible weakness by giving in to the insane demands. She is not a leader and will sell you out to please the other side, no matter the absurdity.

I would bet anything that close to half of her votes were by Democrats hoping to upset the Trump train.

The 'Haley surge' we kept hearing about was nothing but a Field of Dreams operation by the dominant media in this country. They built it, but almost nobody came.

You pretty much nailed this spot on. News story yesterday on WSB was that among the people polled who said they were voting for Haley, 50% stated that they would vote for Biden over Trump if Trump was the Republican nominee. I think they blew their cover by stating they would support Biden over Trump. Truth be told, they'd also support Biden over Haley if it came to it.

Your facts are somewhat off. The Confederate flag was put on the capitol dome underneath the American flag and the South Carolina state flag in 1964 as part of the 100th anniversary of the end of the Civil War. Fritz Hollins, a democrat, was our governor at the time and he authorized it.

Sen. Hollins said later, the flag was never meant to remain on the Capitol dome but to be a temporary acknowledgement.

Fast forward to 2015, the removal of the Confederate flag and what to do with was decided by a large group of people from diverse backgrounds.

The flag was removed and placed in front of the Capitol building and is much more prominent now than it ever was on the of the Capitol dome. There was a solemn ceremony complete with Civil War reenactors. It still flies there today.
