Nikki Haley's a great reminder of how much Trump hates women
Donald Trump is a hater of many things: losing, the law, political enemies. Trump comes unglued over so many things, it’s sometimes easy to forget just how much he despises women—especially women who dare to challenge him.
Enter former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, who has not obeyed Trump's post-Iowa orders to exit the race and "unite" as a party around him. How dare she not submit to his wishes, especially following his victory in New Hampshire. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis folded like a cheap suit. How dare she insist on staying in the race through South Carolina, the next big prize on the GOP primary map and Haley’s home state.
Trump's angry victory speech following his win in the Granite State was just the beginning of his vitriol. His favorite pet name for Haley is Birdbrain. He's gone full birther on her, questioning her eligibility to be president. He's also played the race card, referring to Haley by her given name, Nimarata, while misspelling it as "Nimrada"—just to make certain his followers know she has Indian heritage (i.e., she isn’t white).
