In November, after Twitter flagged her tweet about election fraud, Haley called out Twitter for ignoring a tweet casting doubt on the Holocaust by Iran’s Ayatollah.

Former U.S ambassador to the United NationsNikki Haley has been criticized on Twitter after she claimed that George Washington presided over drawing up the Constitution during his presidency.

'George Washington turned an army of ragtag troops into an unstoppable force that defeated the British & secured America's independence,' Haley tweeted on Monday in celebration of Presidents Day.

'As President, he oversaw the creation of our Constitution & showed the world what it looks like to govern by the people and for the people,' the former South Carolina governor said.

As historians on the social media site were quick to point out, the U.S. Constitution was adopted in 1787 and Washington became the nation's first president in 1789.

History professors highlighted the inaccuracies in Haley's post and joked about the number of errors she'd made.

'Historian here, the Constitution created the presidency and not vice versa. But maybe the Continental Army flown into airports managed to reverse time?' wrote Manish Sinha of the University of Connecticut.

Sinha was referring to remarks by former President Donald Trump about troops during the Revolutionary War taking over airports. There were no airplanes or airports in the late 18th century.

Dr. Joanne Freeman, a history professor at Yale, also took exception to Haley's assertions, tweeting: 'The Continental army was FAR from an 'unstoppable force.'

'The Constitution MADE Washington President,' Freeman said. 'And 'by the people & for the people' is a 19th century democratic view of US gov't in Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. Washington did a lot of noteworthy things. But not these.'

Princeton historian Kevin M. Kruse struck a more comedic note, sending a reply to Haley saying: 'As President, he ... traveled back in time?'

'One of his most under-appreciated superpowers, second only to telekinesis,' joked Wisconsin Democratic Party chair Ben Wikler. Other users chimed in along similar lines.

'Was he born in a house that he built with his own two hands?' asked Seth Masket, political scientist at the University of Denver.

'George Washington oversaw the creation of our Constitution WHILE PRESIDENT? Did you know that, kids?' wrote Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Dan Fagin.

'That's some amazing historicalism stuff right there from Perfessor Haley [sic]! Also good to know the French had nothing to do with the events of 1781! It was ALL WASHINGTON, kids!'

Fagin is referring to the fact that French troops played a crucial role in the Revolutionary War and many historians of the period believe the colonists could not have succeeded without French intervention.

As some Twitter users pointed out, Washington was elected to serve as president of the Constitutional Convention in 1787 but this was a very different role from the executive presidency that the U.S. Constitution created. If Haley was referring to the former role, she did not make that clear.

Haley is widely considered a major figure in the Republican Party and she's frequently talked about as a future candidate for president. If nominated, she would be the first woman ever chosen by the GOP for the top of the ticket. Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin became the first woman to win the party's vice-presidential nomination in 2008.

“Wow. When Iran’s Ayatollah says the Holocaust didn’t happen, Twitter doesn’t say ‘this claim is disputed.’ When I say ballot harvesting makes election fraud easier, Twitter says that’s disputed. Wonder why conservatives don’t trust big tech?”

“Despite what the media tells us, election fraud does happen, and policies like ballot harvesting and mailing ballots to people who don’t request them makes it easier. That needs to stop,” Haley’s tweet said.

The Iranian leader’s tweet was as follows: “The next question to ask is: why is it a crime to raise doubts about the Holocaust? Why should anyone who writes about such doubts be imprisoned while insulting the Prophet (pbuh) is allowed?” Khamenei said.

CNN In Hot Water For Comparing Trump To Nazis Purging Jews

CNN has faced harsh criticism for a segment that aired this week that compared Donald Trump’s administration to the Nazis purging Jews in Germany.


“Commemorations of Kristallnacht took place earlier this week, remembering the 1938 two-day pogrom during which the Nazis burned more than 1,400 synagogues and Jewish institutions in Germany and Austria,” The Jerusalem Post reported. “While recalling the story of the infamous antisemitic slaughter, CNN Chief International Anchor and host of CNN International’s nightly interview program Christiane Amanpour, compared President Donald Trump’s presidency to that tragic event, explaining there has similarly been a ‘modern-day assault’ attacking ‘those same values.’”

The PBS airing of Christiane Amanpour comparing the president's election challenges to KRISTALLNACHT were brought to you in part by Jewish donors. Do they watch the program?

It sickens me that 'viewers like me' are paying for these wicked smears. pic.twitter.com/U2KedSN36p

  • Compiled by the Daily Wire, here is the backlash CNN received from popular figures across the United States:
  • Dan McLaughlin, Senior Writer National Review: “This comparison borders on Holocaust denial.”
  • Allie Beth Stuckey, conservative commentator: “First of all, stop comparing politicians you don’t like & policies you don’t agree with to the freaking Holocaust. Second, it’s not conservatives burning books.”
  • Eric Metaxas: “That ‘elites’ of her age have a grasp of history this HEART-STOPPINGLY tenuous is the most telling fact of modern life. If you want to know how we got here, look no further. The Boomers drank the Cultural Marxist Kool-Aid of 1968 & have been intellectual corpses ever since.”
  • Mark Broome, journalist: “I know people who spout this ludicrous rhetoric and genuinely believe it’s an honest comparison. Brainwashing. It’s a helluva drug. Amanpour is also one of the most disgusting hacks among disgusting hacks.”
  • StopAntisemitism.org: “Hey @CNN @camanpour please stop using the horrors of the Holocaust to justify an agenda. Our suffering is not yours to play political ping pong with.”
  • Orthodox Jewish Public Affairs Council: “Despicable. @camanpour compares verbal fact checking of a POTUS to a Nazi pogrom in which dozens of Jews were murdered. Amanpour uses the book burning of Kristallnacht to reach this comparison thus ignoring the overall deadliness and human cost of the night.”
  • Joel Petlin, educator and journalist: “It’s outrageous everytime a journalist compares the Trump presidency to the start of the #Holocaust. The fact that @camanpour does it on @CNN doesn’t give it any more legitimacy. Message to all Journalists: STOP USING THE HOLOCAUST TO SCORE POLITICAL POINTS!”
  • Dovid Efune, Editor Algemeiner: “Awful from @camanpour . Using the Holocaust as a political cudgel is the height of insensitivity and disrespect. Did she mark Kristallnacht in previous years? Or only when politically opportune? The memory of the massacred millions is sacred. This segment is a desecration.”
  • Ram: “This is what their extreme viewers on the fringe want to hear. Instead of providing news commentary, CNN appeals to the worst instincts among it’s viewers, much like Hitler appealed to the worst instincts among his supporters. In that aspect, CNN is similar to the Nazis.”
  • Donald Trump Jr.: “These people are truly despicable.”
  • Mike Huckabee: “What a bigoted, ignorant, and utterly false statement. WIll @jack @Twitter yank her off Twitter? In the meantime, it’s not conservatives who are ‘making a list’ to deny ppl employment, ‘mark’ them for harassment or hate.”
  • Scott Adams: “Is this report crazy or evil? Hard to tell.”
