Two male Iowa Republican voters got more than a little Trumpy at a town hall event hosted by former South Carolina Governor Nimrata “Nikki” Haley earlier this week, Politico reports.
Roger Dvorak, 80, suggested Haley pick South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem as her running mate, but began trailing off on why. “She’s hot!” an unidentified fellow male audience member yelled, apparently to great laughter from the crowd. “Nikki, you’re not too bad yourself,” Dvorak then added.
Haley laughed uncomfortably and said the discussion was “digressing” too much. Dvorak later told a reporter that the remark was inappropriate, but also suggested that, in not Noem, Tulsi Gabbard be her running mate and not say, Senators Joni Ernst or Marsha Blackburn. Or Alabama Gov Kay Ivey.
