(PATRICK T. FALLON\/AFP via Getty Images)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cAfter months of ignoring the crisis at the Southern Border, it is great that we got Kamala Harris to finally go and see the tremendous destruction and death that they\u2019ve created\u2014a direct result of Biden ending my very tough but fair Border policies. Harris and Biden were given the strongest Border in American history. And now, it is by far the worst in American history,\u201d Trump said.<\/p>\n<p>Haley <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/04\/07\/nikki-haley-kamala-harris-joe-biden-border-crisis-migrants-illegal-immigration-sandra-smith\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">previously criticized<\/a> Harris\u2019 handling of the border crisis in April, stating, \u201cThis is the same person who encouraged 7,000 migrants to come to America. She referred to ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] as the KKK. She\u2019s now in charge of this. She\u2019s been missing in action, and God help us if she ever becomes president, because if this is how she handles a crisis, I mean, I just can\u2019t imagine how she would run our country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Politico noted that Haley\u2019s speech in Iowa, an early primary state in 2024, could show how the potential candidate will position herself if she seeks the Republican Party nomination. On top of criticizing Harris, Haley also touted Trump\u2019s foreign policy stances, a shift from her initial condemnation of Trump\u2019s role in the insurrection on January 6. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/04\/12\/nikki-haley-2024-donald-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(RELATED: Nikki Haley Says She Won\u2019t Run In 2024 If Trump Does)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Haley also cited her diverse background as the daughter of Indian immigrants. \u201cTake it from me, the first female and minority governor of South Carolina,\u201d Haley said. \u201cI said it last year at the Republican national convention, and I will keep on saying it: America is not a racist country. It\u2019s just the opposite. America has done more to ensure equal justice and opportunity than any other country in history.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Content created by The Daily Caller News Foundation is available without charge to any eligible news publisher that can provide a large audience.
