Presidential Candidate: Nikki Haley

Nikki Haley campaign website: Home – Nikki Haley for President

By Ashley Bean Thornton

I’m a little late doing this, but I watched Nikki Haley’s speech announcing her run for president.  I tried to sift out the issues and her proposals.  Love it or hate it — I have tried to stick pretty close to her own words and to be fair in summarizing what I assume to be her platform for 2024. – ABT

What she says she has done

…as governor of South Carolina

• • Cut taxes
  • Created thousands of jobs
  • Revitalized economy

…as ambassador to the United Nations

• • Told the world that we would have the backs of our allies, and for those who didn’t have our backs “we were taking names.”

What she says she will do

• End inflation and build an economy that works for all (like we did in South Carolina)
• Every child gets a world class education because every parent gets to pick their child’s school
• No politician will be able to close schools ever again.
• Police know we have their backs and criminals know we have their number.
• Stop the surge of drugs and immigration through “real” border and mandatory e-verify (like we got done in South Carolina)
• Businesses must hire Americans, not illegals.
• Improve confidence in elections – Voter ID will be the law of the land (like we have in South Carolina)
• End corporate welfare and bail outs for big business
• End earmarks and pork that fuel big government
• Term limits for congress
• Mandatory mental competency tests for politicians over 75 years old
• America: “Strong & Proud – not Weak & Woke”
• Armed forces stronger and more capable than ever
• Start pumping more oil and gas and stop buying dirty oil from Venezuela
• Stand with our allies from Israel to Ukraine and stand up to our enemies in Iran and Russa
• Communist China will end up on the ash heap of history
