Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley said she was showing a lot of restraint when she called fellow White House hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy scum during the partys third debate Wednesday night.

Host Bill Hemmer asked Haley on Fox News Channels Americas Newsroom whether she feels the same way Thursday after making the comment the night prior.

I mean, Bill, that was showing a lot of restraint. Thats all Ill say. That was showing a lot of restraint, Haley said.

He threw a petty shot there. I mean, it says more about him than it does about me, she added.

Ramaswamy and Haley, among the five GOP candidates who qualified for the debate stage, sparred several times from behind their podiums.

Do you want a leader from a different generation whos going to put this country first, or do you want Dick Cheney in 3-inch heels? Ramaswamy said at one point, in reference to Haley, a former U.N. ambassador.

But Haley labeled the 38-year-old entrepreneur scum when he brought up her daughter as he took a swipe at her over TikTok, the video-sharing app thats come under scrutiny over data security concerns.

In the last debate, she made fun of me for actually joining TikTok while her own daughter was actually using the app for a long time. So you might want to take care of your family first, Ramaswamy said.

Leave my daughter out of your voice, Haley hit back. Youre just scum, she added.

The exchange was noted among the nights most memorable moments. Haley, who saw promising polling ahead of the event, was looked at as a top target as she and her GOP competitors jostle to close the significant lead held by former President Trump.

In the Americas Newsroom interview, Haley criticized the personal hits she saw on the debate stage.

You know, its just that this is a serious time in our country. And this is not the time that you need to have, you know, these personal hits. My daughters 25 years old, Haley said.

I think the bigger point is there are big differences between me and Ramaswamy, she added.

Yeah found the clip. He was making that comparison, specifically about defense contracting:

Her people prepped her with a pretty good "snarky" response, IMO. Unless she came up with that on the spot.

Ramaswamy's putting ideas on the table. Bad ones, terrible even. But if they get mainstreamed they skew the political debate. Something, something Overton window.

The only thing I feel comfortable saying could cost Trump the nomination at this point is if he keels over dead before the convention. He's polling 40+ points ahead of his nearest challenger even after multiple felony indictments.

Thing is most Republicans on social media seem to be siding with Vivek. Calling him scum is accurate but not productive in that argument.

From a political perspective a more competent candidate would clarify that their relative who doesn't work in government using an app isn't same national security risk as a president using the same app despite it being known to farm user data for a rival nation.

Granted the subject is trivial to begin with, but nobody who actually cares whether you're scummy or not is still voting Republican at this point.

And if either somehow got the nomination, the other would kiss their ass to high heaven.

Like Ted Cruz did after Trump called him (and his wife) every name in the book on the way to the 2016 nomination.
