Donald Trump's announcement this week that he had gotten his target letter from Special prosecutor,
Jack Smith, obviously captivated headlines and captivated news media left and right.
Everybody's talking about it and nobody's talking about important issues that actually matter in
that Republican primary, or at least that is the complaint from Donald Trump's Republican
rival Nikki Haley. During an interview on Fox News this week, Nikki Haley voiced her annoyance at the
so-called drama that Donald Trump has brought to this Republican race. Here is what Haley
said. It's gonna keep on going. I mean, the rest of this primary election is gonna be in reference
to Trump. It's gonna be about lawsuits, it's gonna be about legal fees, it's gonna be about judges,
and it's just gonna continue to be a further and further distraction. That's why I'm running. It's
because we need a new generational leader. We can't keep dealing with this drama. We
can't keep dealing with the negativity. We can't keep dealing with all of this.
Now, she said more, and I'm gonna read that in a moment, but so far she's dead on right?
When we get to that first Republican debate, the questions those candidates are gonna be asked,
most of them are gonna pertain to Donald Trump. What do you think about having a nominee that
might be a convicted felon? You know, what do you think about the indictments? Has the
DOJ become weaponized against conservatives, yada, yada, yada. All in reference to what's
happening to Donald Trump, right? That's how the media's treating it. That's the only reason Chris
Christie is getting any oxygen in this race is cuz he's out there beating the hell outta
Trump every day over these indictments. And Nikki Haley says, enough, we wanna talk about issues.
And then here's the issues that she tells Fox News. They should be talking about .
We've got China that's literally trying to be at war with us. You've gotta run building
a bomb. You've got North Korea detaining a soldier and testing ballistic missiles. We
need to focus on the debt and the lack of transparency in schools and crime and the
craziness on the border. We can't be sitting there focused on lawsuits over and over again.
China is not trying to be at war with us, like China is not trying to start an actual military
conflict with the United States. They're not actively doing that. That's simply
not true. That is more scaremongering from Republicans because they know that
nothing draws a person to vote Republican faster than the threat of a thermonuclear
war. Which of course is why she brings up North Korea testing ballistic missiles,
something North Korea does constantly. Like that's not a new thing that just started.
Um, she brings up Iran building the bomb. No they're not. And by the way, we wouldn't even have
to be concerned about that if Donald Trump had not pulled us outta that treaty that we had with Iran.
So, you know, blame him for that. And then you start talking. We knew transparency in schools.
What, what does that even mean? Like what? Transparency in schools. What does that even mean?
Nothing. It means nothing. What, what else does she say here? Uh, crime. Crime craziness on the
border. You wanna talk about crime? No, you actually don't. Because first of all,
you already said we shouldn't be talking about Trump's crimes . So we know you don't want
to talk about Republican crime. You also don't want to get into crime statistics the way that we
ought to be getting into them because you would see that red states actually have worse crime
statistics than the blue states. Y'all love to demonize the Blue Cities, Chicago, San Francisco,
la Guess what? You can find worse. Crime rates all throughout my state of Florida here run
solidly by Republicans. So you want to have that conversation. I'll have that conversation all day
long, but you're not gonna like where it goes. Craziness on the border. We had reports this week
showing us that illegal border crossings are at the lowest point in the last two and a half years.
So there's that. See, Nikki, here's the thing that you don't realize. You are better off not having
to talk about the issues because Republicans have no plans. Republicans have no policies,
Republicans have no ideas. You're just a bunch of morons out there who somehow convinced enough
even dumber people in the country to vote for you. If you wanna make this election about the
actual issues, you are screwed. And so is every other person running as a Republican because
Republicans can't ever win on the issues they have to win on hate division and fear.
None of those related to anything that actually matters in the lives of American voters.
