Nikki Haley tackles ‘mean tweets’ in second late-night TV stint this week
Republican Candidate Nikki Haley Takes a Playful Jab at Herself on Late-Night TV
Following her recent defeat in Nevada, Nikki Haley, a Republican presidential candidate, decided to lighten the mood by appearing on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! In a segment called “Mean Tweets,” Haley bravely read out some of the rude social media posts directed at her.
One of the tweets she read was from none other than former President Donald Trump himself, who referred to Haley as “Nikki Birdbrain Haley” and boasted about being the “strongest border president.” As Haley read the tweet, her smile faded, and she couldn’t help but question Trump’s immigration policies, asking why he allowed ”3 million illegals to come into the country under your watch.”
Interestingly, Trump’s tweet was not posted on Twitter, which has now rebranded as X, but on his own social media platform called Truth Social.
Haley’s recent appearance on Saturday Night Live also gave her an opportunity to take a dig at Trump. The two candidates are currently engaged in a heated feud within the Republican Party’s primary race for the 2024 election. In a skit, Haley portrayed a concerned voter attending a CNN town hall in South Carolina, questioning why Trump refuses to debate her.
Despite her efforts to challenge Trump, Haley’s popularity seems to be waning in her home state of South Carolina. She is currently trailing behind the former president in the polls leading up to the Feb. 24 primary.
How does Nikki Haley’s ability to maintain a sense of humor and engage in playful banter impact her campaign and make her more relatable to the general public

It is refreshing to see a presidential candidate who is willing to laugh at themselves and engage in playful banter, even with their opponents. This lightheartedness can help to humanize politicians and make them more relatable to the general public.
In a political landscape often dominated by serious and tense rhetoric, Haley’s appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! offers a much-needed respite. It shows that politicians are not immune to criticism and can still find humor in the midst of a challenging campaign.
While Haley may be trailing in the polls, her ability to take a playful jab at herself demonstrates her resilience and ability to bounce back. It remains to be seen how this will impact her overall campaign, but it is a reminder that politics can be both serious and fun at the same time.
