Nikki Haley’s son Nalin distances himself from Indian roots, says ‘makes no sense to have foreign workers…’
Nalin Haley, the 24-year-old son of Indian-origin Nikki Haley, former US ambassador to the UN and South Carolina governor, has distanced himself from the Indian roots, saying that he has said he holds loyalty only to the US. Though his maternal grandparents are immigrants from India, Haley told The New York Post, “All I’ve ever known is America … I’m not gonna have any sort of weird loyalty to a country where I’ve never been.”
“I don’t view it as responsible to have legal immigration at a time when our economy is fragile and companies aren’t hiring Americans, and AI is taking over a lot of jobs,” he said. “It makes no sense to have foreign workers come here (while) we actually are not hiring our own kids,” he added.
