There’s no shortage of excitement when running for president. But this is not what Haley bargained for.
And a scary scene erupts after Nikki Haley is bombarded by an angry protestor.
The Republican primary in South Carolina is scheduled for this Saturday.
Former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley is hoping to perform well in her home state.
But according to a new Emerson College Polling/Hill survey, Trump is leading Haley 71%-29% among Republicans polled.
It’s widely expected that the former governor will get blown out by Trump.
Yet that’s not stopping Haley from pushing hard to win over voters in the Palmetto State by hosting rallies and speaking events.
But during a recent event at Henry C. Chambers Waterfront Park in Beaufort, South Carolina, Haley was speaking before being interrupted by an angry protestor yelling at her.
“Why are you accepting money from p*dophiles? Why are you accepting money from Democrats?” the protestor yelled.
The heckler, a younger man, was then grabbed and drug away by another man as attendees at the event cheered.
As for Haley, she didn’t seem too bothered by the whole ordeal.
“Even when they’re a little bit loud and obnoxious, don’t get upset,” she said.
“Because I want you to remember, my husband and his military brothers and sisters sacrifice every day for their right to be able to do that.”
Rick Stone, the man who pulled the protestor away, spoke with the Washington Examiner about his actions.
“To be honest, it had nothing to do with Nikki,” he explained.
“This was a rude two kids. If they were my kids, I would have done the same thing.”
Thankfully the situation didn’t escalate to any sort of violence.
