Lots of Republican politicians love spending and wasting taxpayer money almost as much as Democrats,&#8221; Haley said. &#8220;The last two Republican presidents added more than $10 trillion to the national debt.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;Think about that. A third of our debt happened under just two Republicans,&#8221; In a jab at Trump and George W. Bush, she said so. &#8220;It&#8217;s not just our presidents. It&#8217;s Congress, too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Haley, the ex-South Carolina governor, went too far into populism when she addressed the fiscally conservative, deep-pocketed group. They were behind the Republican holdouts, who temporarily blocked Kevin McCarthy&#8217;s win for the House speakership in January.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">One day after Trump supporters, her speech at the summit is delivered to donors. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/presidential-candidate-nikki-haley-heckled-trump-supporters-cpac-love-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/presidential-candidate-nikki-haley-heckled-trump-supporters-cpac-love-trump&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1678044953214000&#038;usg=AOvVaw3iw-B1F3c-s3EXdcxD7HRB\">heckled<\/a> Haley attending the Conservative Political Action Conference (Maryland).<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Trump was furious with Club for Growth for backing opposing candidates during midterm elections.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;I know there&#8217;s a Republican candidate out there who you did not invite to this conference,&#8221; Haley spoke to the crowd as Trump&#8217;s United Nations ambassador. &#8220;I appreciate being one you did invite.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Haley criticised Republican legislators for supporting COVID-related spending legislation and thanked Club for Growth &#8220;supporting primary challenges to squishy Republicans.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Also, she promised to &#8220;fight for term limits in Congress. If the president gets two terms, senators and congressmen shouldn&#8217;t get four decades or more.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Haley also attacked CNN host Don Lemon who was temporarily suspended after saying that the former governor of South Carolina, 51 years old was too old for the network. &#8220;in her prime.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Lemon claimed that women were &#8220;feminine&#8221; on the air. &#8220;considered to be in their prime in 20s and 30s and maybe 40s.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Haley jokingly said in her speech, &#8220;America is not past its prime; and no, Don Lemon, I&#8217;m not past mine either.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;But Joe Biden and too many of our politicians are past theirs,&#8221; Elle added. &#8220;It&#8217;s time for a new generation of leadership.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/winred.tomcotton.com\/tom-cotton\/illegals-voting-beacon-ads?utm_source=rc&#038;utm_medium=fbeaconads&#038;utm_campaign=202303dcvoting\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> \t\t\t\t \t\t\t<\/a> \t\t<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/winred.tomcotton.com\/tom-cotton\/illegals-voting-beacon-ads?utm_source=rc&#038;utm_medium=fbeaconads&#038;utm_campaign=202303dcvoting\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> \t\t\t\t \t\t\t<\/a> \t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">At the Club for Growth Summit, Ron DeSantis (Republican presidential candidate) and Mike Pompeo (ex-secretary of State) will also speak.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>&#8220;From <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/latest-news\/haley-takes-aim-at-don-lemon-trump-and-squishy-republicans\/\">Haley Takes Aim at Trump and &#8216;Squishy&#8217; Republicans<\/a>&#8221;<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11px\"><em>&#8220;The views and opinions expressed here are solely those of the author of the article and not necessarily shared or endorsed by Conservative News Daily&#8221;<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Haley, a Club for Growth donor retreat said that &#8216;lots of Republican politicians love to spend and waste taxpayer money almost as much or more than Democrats.
