The GOP candidate had said last week that states could secede if they felt the need to do so.
Nikki Haley, fresh off her Civil War history refresher on this weekās Saturday Night Live, appeared to remember what the Constitution allowed when it comes to state secession: nothing.
Haley again walked back her comments saying states could choose if they wanted to secede from the U.S., telling CNNās State of the Union on Sunday that she didnāt believe the Constitution afforded them that right. It came days after she told radio host Charlamagne tha God that states like Texas could āmake the decisions that their people want to make.ā
āAccording to the Constitution, they canāt,ā Haley told CNN. āWhat I think they have the right to do is have the power to protect themselves and do all that. Texas has talked about that for a long time. The Constitution doesnāt allow for that.ā
The GOP presidential candidate then tried to pivot to why Texas would consider such an option, citing Gov. Greg Abbottās frustration with the Biden administrationās handling of the Southern border and the stateās desire to protect itself.
If thatās what you think flailing is. Looked like she did pretty well at not giving her own thoughts and opinions, avoiding the question, and claiming texas canāt secede because of the constitution. Didnāt look much like she failed at all.
Political headlines read like Pokemon battles.
At least they seem to moving on from āslammedā.
Interviewer used You Didnāt Answer The Question. Itās super effective!
