The Washington Post is accusing Nikki Haley of 'misleading' a town hall audience over the purchase of land by China in South Carolina during her tenure as governor.
Republican presidential candidate and former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley is being accused of 'misleading' the audience attending one of her town halls earlier this month over the sale of land in South Carolina to China while she was governor of the state.
Kessler wrote that Haley, as South Carolina's governor from 2011 to 2017, 'recruited Chinese companies to her state,' and that 'Chinese capital investment in South Carolina more than doubled from $308 million in 2011 to nearly $670 million in 2015.' 'There's nothing wrong with politicians changing their positions in light of new facts.
According to Kessler, Chinese companies received approximately 1,500 acres of land during Haley's administration, 'much of it through land sales.' The fiberglass company in question — China Jushi — has deep connections to the Chinese Communist Party, Kessler wrote, and established a manufacturing plant in South Carolina in 2016 that Haley called 'a huge win for our state.' 'Get excited! China Jushi is creating 400 new jobs and investing $300.
