America Wants to Know: What's Wrong With Nikki Haley's Teeth?
Tonight’s state of the union rebuttal was delivered by South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley. And truthfully, she could have said anything tonight and it wouldn’t have made much of a difference. Because tonight, America only had eyes for Nikki Haley’s incredible, unmoving jaw.

As you can see from the speech below, if politics doesn’t work out, Haley has a long and illustrious career in ventriloquism ahead of her.
The difficulty of delivering an entire speech without moving your mouth aside, the real question is: What the hell was Haley doing? And America demanded answers.

In addition to offering some relatively plausible theories.
Nikki Haley looks like she's being held at gun point while giving the Republican response to #SOTU. Eyes wide and teeth clenched.

Nikki Haley can't open her mouth any wider otherwise the little alien controlling her body will escape. #GOPresponse

Nikki Haley still has her Crest Whitestrips in so she can't open her mouth too wide #GOPResponse #SOTU

Why won't Nikki Haley's teeth part? Is her jaw wired shut? Are her teeth a personal "wall to keep immigrants out?" pic.twitter.com/35ePLkQzOJ

Nikki Haley seems lovely and yet I wish she would open her mouth when she speaks. Is she worried refugees will get in? #sotu

No matter the reason, there is one thing we know for certain: No republican should give a State of the Union response. Ever.
