Nikki Haley had a three-word response to Donald Trump on Tuesday after he called her an embarrassment. "Bless your heart," she tweeted at Trump, the Republican presidential frontrunner. Trump, the frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination, has been sparring with rival Marco Rubio for days after the senator went on the offensive against Trump at a Republican debate last Thursday.  Trump went after Haley, one of Rubio's supporters, on Tuesday. "The people of South Carolina are embarrassed by Nikki Haley!" Trump tweeted. "Bess your heart" isn't quite a nicety in the South. It's more of a condescending way of dismissing someone.   Share the latest business news with your network: Email sent to:   |   Manage your email preferences   |   Unsubscribe Terms of Service   |   Privacy Policy Business Insider. 150 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10011
