Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley fired back at MSNBC’s Joy Reid on Tuesday after Reid claimed that Haley underperformed in Iowa because the Republican Party is racist.
Reid made her remarks after Haley, who had been labeled as the “surging” candidate ahead of Iowa, finished third in the state, which came despite her political operation spending more money there than any other candidate.

She’s getting birthered by Donald Trump, and I don’t care how much the donor class likes her — which will ramp up a lot the better she does in New Hampshire — it’s still a challenge.”
Haley responded during a Fox News segment on Tuesday…
