In an interview Sunday on NBC's 'Meet the Press,' Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley offered tepid pushback to Donald Trump’s suggestion that former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley should be executed for treason. When asked whether Trump’s comments were disqualifying for a presidential candidate, Haley danced around the question: The former United Nations ambassador didn’t elaborate on this word salad of a response and wasn't pressed to do so.
Perhaps none more than Haley, though. For several years, she has benefitted from a narrative — spun by media and Trump-averse conservatives — that she’s a moderate voice in the Republican Party capable of mollifying GOP extremists and dialing down their illiberal impulses. But more often than not, the sight and sound of Haley acquiescing to right-wing radicals has shown she's ill-equipped for the task. I think, for example, about Haley’s generally lauded time as Trump’s U.N.
