Nikki Haley keeps trying to insert herself into the final stretch of former President Donald J. Trump’s presidential campaign, much to the delight of Democrat nominee Kamala Harris and her team.
The former South Carolina governor and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations appeared on Fox News where she weighed in on the Democrats’ manufactured outrage campaign over a little-known comic’s bombed joke about Puerto Rico at Trump’s Madison Square Garden on Sunday.
Still bitter after getting creamed by Trump in the primaries, Haley perhaps inadvertently served up a gift for Harris when she complained to anchor Bret Baier “This bromance and masculinity stuff, it borders on edgy to the point that it’s going to make women uncomfortable,” during criticism of the decision to invite Tony Hinchcliffe who is known for his edgy “roasting” style of humor to speak at MSG.
“You have got affiliated PACs doing commercials about calling Kamala the ‘c’ word or speakers at Madison Square Garden, you know, referring to her and her ‘pimps,’” she added. “That is not the way to win women. That is not the way to win people who are concerned about Trump’s style.”
Kamala HQ quickly seized on Haley’s criticism to portray Trump and his supporters as uncouth misogynists, a false narrative that was just given a boost from the former Republican presidential candidate who has a great deal of influence with the type of wishy-washy RINO women who Liz Cheney is trying to lure over to the Democrat side.

Haley was referring to a controversial online ad that branded Harris as the “c-word” for “communist” that sparked outrage. The ad has since been taken down but she just couldn’t let it go and as a result, she gifted the Democrats with more fodder for their attacks on Trump that they can spin as Republican dissatisfaction with their own nominee.
The Harris campaign’s media public relations arm also jumped on Haley’s grumbling.

Once again Nikki Haley uses her appearance on Fox to criticize the Trump campaign strategy: “They also need to look at how they are talking about women. This bromance and masculinity stuff, it borders on edgy to the point that it’s going to make women uncomfortable.”

Last month, during another Fox News appearance Haley said “Donald Trump and JD Vance need to change the way they speak about women” and that “You don’t need to call Kamala dumb. She didn’t get this far, you know, just by accident. She’s here. That’s what it is. She’s a prosecutor.”
“When you call even a Democrat woman dumb, Republican women get their backs up too,” she added.

Nikki Haley gives the game away here: she’s mad that Trump doesn’t call her and doesn’t want her around, so she’s going on Fox to trash him. Classic career politician behavior. Always about me me me. https://t.co/0twDVJ1hU3

Haley also told Baier that she’s on “standby” and ready to help out if Trump asks her to in the final days before the election.
“There’s no bad blood between me and the president. We want Donald Trump to win. I respect his campaign and what they need. If they need something, they will call and ask me,” she said.
