Nikki Haley Says Women Who Accuse Trump of Misconduct ‘Should Be Heard’
The New York Slimes ^ | December 10,2017 | MICHAEL D. SHEAR and EMILY COCHRANE

WASHINGTON — Nikki R. Haley, the American ambassador to the United Nations, said on Sunday that women who have accused President Trump of sexual misconduct “should be heard,” a surprising break from the administration’s longstanding assertion that the allegations are false and that voters rightly dismissed them when they elected Mr. Trump.

Ms. Haley, a former governor and one of the highest-ranking women in Mr. Trump’s administration, refocused attention on the allegations against the president by insisting that his accusers should be treated no differently than the scores of women who have come forward in recent weeks with stories of sexual harassment and misconduct against other men.

“They should be heard, and they should be dealt with,” Ms. Haley said on CBS’s “Face the Nation.” “And I think we heard from them prior to the election. And I think any woman who has felt violated or felt mistreated in any way, they have every right to speak up.”

Her remarks are the latest indication that the president’s behavior toward women — more than a dozen have accused him of unwanted touching, forcible kissing or groping — may not escape renewed scrutiny at a time when an array of powerful men have had their careers derailed because of their improper treatment of women, some of which took place decades ago.

We knew this was where the guilty-by-accusation protocol was headed.

I never thought much of this chick. She in my opinion was always searching for a headline.

They’ve already been heard, and had their 15 minutes of fame.

GOPeers, like Dingy Ditch, need to be chastised for harassing the Public and the US Constitution.

Obviously they have been heard, and once heard they should file charges or be satisfied they were heard.

On second thought you don’t give an inch. Prove they’re out of it and they just go on to the next issue.

Since they have been heard, what does that statement mean at this point?

I didn’t like hearing Nikki make this remark, but it was a direct question.
Although, she could have refused to answer a hypothetical question about the president.
I hope she’s not changing her loyalty.
If she is, that won’t impress the Libs.
Eventually, they will come after her too.

We “heard” them just fine.

We just don’t believe them, and have nothing but contempt for anyone who does.

I never trusted her as she was always a never Trumper. Not sure why Trump then promoted her instead of shunning the chick.

Sure, let’s apply the Bill Clinton standard. They will be heard if they can produce a dress with Trump’s semen on it. < / sarcasm >

They have been heard, before the election.
And Americans elected Trump in spite of allegations.

Just saw they’re having a presser to re-accuse the President.

Where does this end?

Ok...so let’s again “hear” the allegations of her whoring herself around South Carolina while married. Remember those from a GOP consultant?

If it’s The Bill Clinton standard, it doesn’t matter if there is semen on a dress.

Heard then groaned at.

It was air that finally got Roy Moore more support than before.

Maybe this could be poison bait for Democrats.
