The comments from The Daily Show on her and her being a so-called "moderate" are even more poignant now.

MODERATORS
I posted about this a few days after Roe was overturned. I’m a bit surprised it took this long for IVF to be attacked. Next will be stem cell research, then contraception.
If you were an adult in the 1980s-90s, you’ll remember this.
Haley might be young, but she’s an idiot if she didn’t see this coming. It was her own party that made these same moves 40 years ago, and they haven’t been subtle about repeating history.
I guess all republicans are morons, but come on. This is not a surprise.
Nikki Haley is suddenly trying to claim she never said what she said.
And we thought only Biden and Trump were having cognitive issues...
Nah, this is just saying something moronic and then frantically trying to do damage control when it turned out people didn't like it.
Typical sleazy politician move that has nothing to do with cognitive function.
Don’t take away the rights of these physicians and these parents to have these conversations.”
So.... she's pro choice?
No, no. You see, she's saying you should feel free to talk about it, so long as your conclusion matches her opinion.
IVF for some, miniature American flags for others
Listen, she's going to say some stuff and its going to sound good and then you're going to vote for her to BEAT TRUMP alright? Don't spend a bunch of time thinking about it. Just VOTE.
Also, she's a moderate Republican. The "liberal media" tells us this is so, because, uh, reasons. LOL.
Doesn't matter, the only possible chance Haley has is if Trump gets convicted of something between now and November. Haley is raising awareness for her 2028 campaign.
He’d still be the nominee
Dude could run from prison and he might even win, depending on whether the economy slips in the shower between now and November.
After a full 24 months of liberals screaming "He's a fascist! We have to stop him! PLEASE VOTE! It's the only way to stop the fascism!!!" Biden would personally hobble down to the cell and let him out for his swearing in ceremony, because fuck sorry dawg there's nothing we can do a rule's a rule.
You'd be getting "Please donate $20.24 to STOP TRUMP NOW! The fight for the Midterms STARTS TODAY!" even as Roberts was holding up the copy of Hustler magazine Donny asked to be sworn in on.
I look forward to the maga goons who will keep writing Trumps name in no matter the circumstances. Jail, dead, exiled to Moscow... they're a cult.
Own it, you coward.
In Handmaid’s Tale–esque fashion, Haley has tried to toe the line on the issue of third-party fertility in a futile effort to keep voters from turning away from her floundering campaign, even though she conceived her son via artificial insemination.
Jesus fucking Christ, these people. For fuck’s sake!
Conservatives are losers with no platform since religion is dead as fuck as a platform.
Conservatives are losers
Majority of governorships and plurality of state legislatures. Nevermind all the fucking judge and sheriff seats.
I would love if liberals could lose like that.
Nikki Haley is a fundamentalist extremist that is advocating for a full ban on abortions after six weeks (which makes abortions essentially entirely illegal). Just because she isn't Trump doesn't mean she isn't fucking crazy.
Oh no! Businesses are shockingly deciding it's not worth possible manslaughter charges for possible technical malfunctions. How fucking surprising.
These fucking idiots never think about how this stuff could affect them until it does. As long as it only hurts the right people, they cheer it on.
There is no such thing as an “unborn baby”. It’s not a baby until it’s born. Before that, it’s fetus, before that an embryo, and before that a zygote. This is why uneducated idiots should not be making decisions which involve science and medicine.
Edit: fixed
I agree with the spirit of your post but I think you’ve switched the order of zygote/embryo.
lol, fixed. I had just woken up
What I found hilarious (except not) was that she said it should be a conversation between a woman and her doctor, although the embryo is a baby and killing it is murder so... Not much to discuss there is there?
Discussion is pretty much conspiracy to commit murder under that law, right?
