WASHINGTON, DC: During an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network, when asked how she would appeal to MAGA voters, Nikki Haley proceeded to dig at Donald Trump, as per Medias Touch.

However, before launching her attack, Haley claimed that Trump was "the right president at the right time," that she agreed with many of his ideas, and that they had a "good working relationship."

In response to how she plans to woo MAGA voters, Haley said, "Rightly or wrongly, chaos follows him. We all know that. Chaos follows him …But we can’t be a country in disarray and have a world on fire and make it through four years of chaos. We can’t."

The former South Carolina Governor then took care to emphasize that she wasn't genuinely adopting a stance in favor of the ex-POTUS or holding him accountable for the decisions.

Haley asserted, "I said rightly or wrongly. So it could be. All I know is we need stability and we need strength and we need to start answering the issues of tomorrow and not looking back to the past. And we can’t keep going back to that negativity and baggage of the past."

""Baggage of the past" from Trump's own ambassador to the United Nations," remarked someone else.
