Nikki Haley Appeals for Twitter Civility, Help for Baltimore, Dems Don’t Bite

Earlier today, former ambassador to the UN and South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley took to Twitter in an attempt to broker peace and focus attention on helping the people of Baltimore. In a culture where many prefer battling it out over Twitter than looking for real solutions, it’s hard to find reasonable discourse these days.

Instead of all of this back and forth about who everyone thinks is racist and whose not, the President just offered to help the people of Baltimore. They should take him up on it. Let’s put the same energy into where it will make a difference. ??

The tweet went viral leading to verified Twitter users like Author John Pavlovitz to respond, asking about “details on the whole soul-selling process.”

Nikki, can you give us some details about the whole soul-selling process?

Do you pay in one lump sum, or are you on an installment plan?

Thanks in advance.

Verified Twitter user Sheldon Beatty suggested she “be quiet if she wants to run for President.” He referenced an old article where she spoke out about not wanting Trump to win during the 2016 presidential primary.

You should be quiet if you want to run for president. I'm old enough to remember when you had choice words for @realDonaldTrump. https://t.co/GjB9xRwGxu

Activist Amy Siskind called it a “cowardly cop-out.”

Cowardly cop-out. There was a time as governor when you actually showed some leadership on racism, your compass got corroded in service of the lawless tyrant.

MSNBC host Joy Reid told Haley twice in a post that it was “not a back and forth” between President Trump and others and accused the president of, “luxuriating in open racism.”

It's not a "back and forth," Ms Haley. The president attacked black congress members, black majority cities and a civil rights activist and is luxuriating in open racism to whip his base into a frenzy and people are responding in horror. That is not a "back and forth." https://t.co/banzmiTpEW

All of this makes it questionable if any on the left has an interest in engaging in civil dialogue at all. They seem to destroy and denigrate anyone who does not share their world view of President Trump.
