Nikki Haley Stumped by Civil War Question - Grift Report
At a New Hampshire town hall, GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley avoided directly stating that slavery was a cause of the Civil War, focusing instead on "the role of government." When questioned about not mentioning slavery, she asked, "What do you want me to say about slavery?" before moving on.
This response drew criticism from Democratic figures and President Biden, who affirmed that the Civil War was about slavery.
Haley later acknowledged in an interview that slavery was a cause of the Civil War and emphasized the importance of freedom and individual rights.
