'Why Won't You Debate' Me?: Nikki Haley Crashes Trump's 'SNL' Town Hall In Surprise Cameo

Host Ayo Edebiri also hit the GOP presidential candidate with a question about the Civil War in the "Saturday Night Live" cold open.
The real Nikki Haley confronted a mock Donald Trump at a South Carolina town hall in a surprise appearance during the “SNL” cold open this weekend.
The former United Nations ambassador crashed the faux CNN event as the former president (played by James Austin Johnson) took questions from voters ahead of the state’s GOP primary later this month.
“Why won’t you debate Nikki Haley?” asked Haley, who was introduced as a “concerned South Carolina voter.”
“Oh my God, it’s her, the woman who was in charge of security on January 6th. It’s Nancy Pelosi,” replied Johnson’s Trump in a reference to the former president’s recent rally blunder.
Haley later took a question from “SNL” host Ayo Edebiri, who referred to the GOP presidential candidate not mentioning slavery when asked about the Civil War in December.
