After a voter said he found it “astonishing” that Haley hadn’t used the word “slavery” at any point in her answer, she asked, “What do you want me to say about slavery?”

    I’m not sure that it’s true that she is “fine with white supremacy” but you’re right that she is likely trying to appeal to those that are.

    Based on what little I know about her, (like most politicians) she wants to win, and will say whatever the “correct” words are to get the most pepple vote for her. She’s also trying to win over trumpers, and she knows to dance around certain topics to do that. Problem for her is she is starting to come across as spineless in the media, which is the opposite of how (I think) trumpers see their Orange-Supreme-Leader

    But yeah, she also gives off a vibe of being more rational and moderate which is what makes her a credible threat to Biden. (So I’m glad that she’s fucking things up for herself, and if she can continue to put her foot in her mouth that’s a plus)
