Nikki Haley, the former South Carolina Governor and a contender for the GOP presidential nomination, discussed the pressing issue of entitlement reform in the United States, particularly focusing on Social Security and Medicare.
Haley is busy doing her media tour with the far-left news network this week.
During her appearance on the “Squawk Box,” Haley emphasized the urgency of addressing the impending insolvency of Social Security and Medicare, highlighting a ‘looming ten-year and eight-year deadline,’ respectively.
“Social Security goes bankrupt in ten years. Medicare goes bankrupt in eight. Anyone that says they’re not going to take on entitlement reform means they’re going to go in and be president and leave the country bankrupt. You can’t do that,” she said.
