Nikki Haley Slams Primary Foe&#8217;s Naive Foreign Policy<\/h2>\n<p>Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki\u2064 Haley continued to bash \u2063Vivek Ramaswamy on Monday, claiming her \u200bRepublican 2024 presidential primary foe&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/senate-overwhelmingly-votes-to-keep-u-s-embassy-in-jerusalem\/\" title=\"Senate Overwhelmingly Votes to Keep U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem\">foreign policy positions<\/a> are\u2062 &#8220;completely naive&#8221; and \u200d&#8221;narcissistic.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWhen you have somebody onstage \u200csay, \u2018I\u2019m going to let Russia\u2062 have this part of Ukraine, and I\u2019m gonna tell them you can\u2019t do anything with China going forward,\u2019 it\u2019s completely naive,\u201d\u200b Haley declared to applause from the audience, per Politico. \u201cAnd the other thing that bothers me \u2014 \u2062it is completely narcissistic to think\u200b that America\u200b doesn\u2019t need friends.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe do need friends. We do need allies,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Emphasizing Foreign Policy\u200d Experience<\/h3>\n<p>Haley&#8217;s campaign\u200c has emphasized \u200bher <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/nikki-haley-at-rjc-biden-admin-cant-be-trusted-to-stop-iran-nuclear-threat\/\" title=\"Nikki Haley at RJC: Biden Admin Can\u2019t Be Trusted to Stop Iran Nuclear Threat\">foreign policy experience<\/a> in \u2062having prepared her for\u200b the Oval Office and used it to contrast her with Ramaswamy, the opponent with likely the least familiarity with diplomacy and one who stands above her in most national \u2064polls.<\/p>\n<p>As important as it is for Haley to highlight her past work and strengths, it is also crucial to her chances in the GOP primary that she performs well in South Carolina, the state from which she hails and was governor from 2011 to 2017. But as of August 19, Haley \u200csits behind former President Donald Trump, \u2062Gov. Ron DeSantis, and \u2062Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) in the \u2063Palmetto State,\u2063 according to an average from RealClearPolitics.<\/p>\n<p>Her standing may rise \u2064after an impressive display at last week&#8217;s first GOP primary debate in\u200d Milwaukee, Wisconsin. While Scott also \u2062calls South Carolina home and will similarly see the state as being integral to his election chances, his lackluster \u2062performance onstage could see\u200d Haley leapfrog him in\u2063 polls as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/gop-candidates-who-said-they-will-make-the-first-presidential-debate\/\" title=\"GOP candidates committed to participating in the inaugural presidential debate.\">presidential primaries draw<\/a> ever\u2062 closer.<\/p>\n<p>What many saw impressive about \u200bHaley&#8217;s debate performance was her pragmatic viewpoints on topics such as abortion,\u2063 as\u2063 well as her emphasis on issues where she knows she stands out, namely, foreign policy.\u2062 It was \u200bhere that Haley had strong words for Ramaswamy last Wednesday in one \u200bof the most\u200b memorable moments of the night.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cHe wants to hand Ukraine to Russia, he wants to let \u200dChina eat Taiwan,\u200b he wants to go and stop funding Israel,\u201d Haley also said of Ramaswamy. \u201cYou don\u2019t do that to friends. What \u200cyou do instead is \u200cyou have the backs\u200d of your friends.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The former U.N. ambassador also criticized Ramaswamy for &#8220;choosing a murderer&#8221; in Russian President Vladimir Putin for indicating support for Ukraine is\u200c not a priority for the\u2063 U.S.\u200c The entrepreneur has taken heat for his attitudes toward Ukraine and Taiwan, with \u2063rivals arguing his proposed policies display a lack of understanding of international\u200c relations.<\/p>\n<p>Ramaswamy&#8217;s camp repeated his stance toward Haley after her comments on Monday, with Tricia McLaughlin, a senior adviser to the Ramaswamy campaign, telling Politico, &#8220;Vivek is running for president of the United States, not\u2063 a board seat on \u200bLockheed Martin.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Foreign policy does not\u2064 expect to \u200bweigh as heavily on\u2063 voters&#8217; minds as so-called &#8220;kitchen-table issues&#8221; such as the economy. However, Haley&#8217;s recent approach on the campaign\u200d trail could bear fruit as more voters learn about her stances. And\u200b it is clear that she will\u2062 need South Carolina&#8217;s favor in order\u2064 to raise her chances of securing the Republican \u200cnomination.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former South Carolina Gov.
