Joe Biden<\/strong> gave a speech<\/a> in South Carolina on Monday, and Nikki Haley<\/strong> isn\u2019t happy about it. Specifically, she\u2019s not happy about the part where the president called her out for her extremely cringeworthy comments<\/a> about the Civil War, saying, \u201cLet me be clear, for those who don\u2019t seem to know: Slavery was the cause of the Civil War.\u201d<\/p>\n This content can also be viewed on the site it originates<\/a> from.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Angrily responding during a town hall hosted by Fox News, Haley responded: \u201cI don\u2019t need someone who palled around with segregationists in the \u201970s and has said racist comments all the way through his career lecturing me or anyone in South Carolina about what it means to have racism, slavery, or anything related to the Civil War.\u201d (Biden was against<\/a> the federal effort to use busing to desegregate schools in the 1970s.) Haley also claimed it was inappropriate to give a \u201cpolitical speech\u201d at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, the Charleston church where nine Black people were murdered by a white supremacist in 2015.<\/p>\n Last month, Haley found herself in the uncomfortable position of being called for failing to attribute slavery as the main cause of the Civil War. Asked about the matter at a CNN town hall, last week, the Republican presidential hopeful somehow made things worse by saying<\/a>, \u201cIf you grow up in South Carolina, literally in second and third grade, you learn about slavery. You grow up and you have\u2014you know, I had Black friends growing up. It is a very talked-about thing.\u201d<\/p>\n This content can also be viewed on the site it originates<\/a> from.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nX content<\/h4>\n
