Nikki Haley's campaign recently released an ad calling Donald Trump a “chicken” because he doesn't want to debate her.
The Trump campaign had one of the best response ads you will ever see.

Team Haley: Donald Trump is a chicken
The core political action committee behind Haley ran a new ad Wednesday during Fox News host Sean Hannity's show.
The ad called Trump a “chicken” for not discussing Haley, and questioned whether the former president was “too big and inappropriate.” “Or just confused and afraid? We don't know.”
“But there's one thing we do know. Donald Trump is chicken,” the ad insisted.
The Trump team's response was a thing of beauty.
Trump's team responds with a funny ad
For starters: Why would Trump want to debate Haley, given how badly she lost in every contest?
She even came in third in New Hampshire when there were still other people in the race.
Trump's ad begins with “Nikki Haley says she wants to debate Donald Trump.”
With a chicken standing in it.
“what is the point?” she asks, going over all her initial losses and noting that she was defeated in Nevada by “none of the above.”
“And now she is falling in the polls,” the ad continued, displaying headlines saying that Trump is “crushing” Haley in her home state of South Carolina.
“We all know how this is going to end,” the ad says.
That's when the chicken comes off the screen and is replaced by an image…
…Fried chicken! “
“Stick a fork in Nikki Haley,” the ad reads alongside a bucket of fried chicken.
The ad ends with the phrase, “It's over,” and Trump campaign slogans decorate the screen.
Here are both ads side by side.

Bring on the funny
This election is going to have some funny moments, and it's only February.
Republicans don't officially have a presidential nominee yet, and neither do Democrats, technically.
But most expect Trump to face Democratic incumbent President Joe Biden — who is often unintentionally funny, and when he's not even trying.
He doesn't seem to know where he is half the time. You know Donald Trump is going to be all over it.
This has just begun.
