Eric Bolling Says Nikki Haley Ghosted His Show After He Criticized Her: ‘You Can’t Have That Thin of a Skin’

 

Newsmax host Eric Bolling claimed on Thursday that Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley would no longer come on his show after he criticized one of Haley’s most controversial campaign policies.

During an interview with David Polyansky, the deputy campaign manager for Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis, Bolling said:

I’ll be honest with you. Nikki Haley, she’s been on the show, she was my governor for a long time– she won’t come back. She won’t come back because I called her out on a harebrained idea that she had about making anything you post on the internet somehow be tied to your identification. I thought it was insane, I’m a libertarian, I hated it. I mentioned it, she wouldn’t even give us someone like yourself who represents the Haley campaign to have a conversation.

Bolling – who previously introduced Haley on his show as a friend – concluded, “You can’t have that thin of a skin and expect to be the president of the free world, literally.”

Haley received backlash in November after she called anonymous social media posts a “national security threat” and suggested that all social media users should be made to verify their identities online.

The proposal was condemned by many Republicans, including Haley’s GOP rival Vivek Ramaswamy, who warned that such a system would be a “flagrant violation of the Constitution.”

Haley, DeSantis, former President Donald Trump, and Chris Christie have all appeared at least once on Bolling’s show in recent years.

Despite Bolling’s staunch support for Trump and criticism of the former New Jersey governor’s policies, Christie served as a regular guest on The Balance, where the two frequently clashed, before Christie dropped out of the race this week.
