The left can't stand a conservative minority female not being a Democrat: Nikki Haley

Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley responds to attacks from the left after she announced her 2024 presidential run on 'Hannity.' 

Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley responded to attacks from Don Lemon and the ladies of "The View" Monday on "Hannity."

NIKKI HALEY: You know, I'm not surprised, Pete. I mean, I have dealt with this all my life. They can't stand a conservative minority female not being a Democrat. And so they will continue to throw everything. When I first won the governorship in South Carolina, it was liberal minority Democrats that said she's not a minority. She's just a conservative with a tan.

I mean, this is going to continue to happen, but it infuriates them because they know we win independents; they know we win suburban women. They know that we win minorities because our solutions lift up everyone, not just a select few.

But more importantly, look at how hypocritical this is. If a Republican had said this about Kamala Harris, if a Republican had said this about any Democrat, they'd be asking for people to be fired. You're not hearing any of that. I mean, [the] first day, it was Whoopi Goldberg; the second day it's Don Lemon. You know, today The View picks it back up again. And they're trying to glorify Dianne Feinstein? And, you know, Maxine Waters, when I say we should have mental competency tests for people over the age of 75? You know, we've easily struck a nerve, but I'll wear it as a badge of honor.
