As Twitchy told you, Chelsea Handler just about spit out her fifth vodka tonic of the morning when she saw Nikki Haley blaming Hamas for the deaths of Palestinian “protesters” yesterday at the Israel-Gaza border. But it’s hard to sympathize with Chelsea without seeing what Haley said that was so egregious. So let’s watch:

Wow. No wonder Chelsea was so upset. If the truth hurts, she must be in a world of pain right now.
TRUTH!!! @NikkiHaley is right on! It's a giant Iran/Hamas publicity stunt that cost dozens of lives. https://t.co/p2uxvXwsnh

And you know what makes this even better?

Nikki Haley walking out as Palestine's envoy to the UN begins to speak pretty much summarizes the US stance towards the Palestinians. pic.twitter.com/3GJJM48ewK

Leave it to Nikki Haley to drop the mic without even having to make a sound.
How can you not love Nikki Haley

Haley’s refusal to indulge terrorist apologists is rubbing some people the wrong way:

How mature of her
— AME (@angeil) May 15, 2018
So much for those who hoped Nikki Haley was now the 'adult' in this administration.

She walked out?? How can the United States promote peace if we walk out.Lord.@nikkihaley @realDonaldTrump

Yeah … about that:
Your mistake is assuming peace is their goal.

Peace is not their objective.

It never has been. And unlike so many of her U.N. colleagues, Nikki Haley actually has the balls to call them out on it.
Nothing but respect for my future President! https://t.co/p59kI6TUck
