Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley was recently confronted in a restaurant over the weekend and chastised by a patron for “spending millions” to run against Donald Trump via Conservative Brief.
It has been noted that Haley came in a distant third to Trump in the Iowa caucuses last week and, according to most polling, the former UN ambassador is running well behind the 45th president ahead of this week’s New Hampshire primary. This is even though her campaign spent more time in Iowa than any of the other candidates.
“Haley was questioned about the spending on advertising in a Chick-fil-A restaurant while campaigning in New Hampshire ahead of Tuesday’s primary,” Newsweek reported.
Titus Frost, who took a video of the encounter and posted it on X, wrote that Haley “was not too happy to be asked why she is wasting so much money on TV ads when there are homeless veterans in the USA and she is going to lose to Trump anyways.”
“Can I ask you just like a tiny question?” Frost asks Haley in the clip.
“Do you think it’s responsible for politicians to spend like $100 million in Iowa on TV ads, which go to mainly news stations that have lied to us for years when there’s homeless veterans out there that could use that money when you didn’t even come close to beating Trump?” he asked.
Haley responded by pointing out that her husband is a veteran and that the money is needed to air campaign ads that “tell the truth” the media won’t tell.
