Nikki Haley: Biden's speech out of "the depths of hell"

Driving the news: Haley criticized Biden's speech, and its optics, in an interview with Fox News on Friday.

• "It was one of the most unbelievable things I've seen in a long time. He looked like he was in the depths of hell," Haley said during an interview on Fox News' "America Reports."
• "He's got military officers behind him, which I hate that they even had to sit behind him as he was talking about how half the country are basically domestic terrorists," she said of Biden's speech.

Flashback: Haley tweeted Thursday, after the president's speech, that Biden was "the most condescending president of my lifetime."

• "He’s done nothing to unite the nation. Nothing to bring healing. Nothing to alleviate the pain millions of Americans feel everyday.
• "He’s been a divider in chief and come November he must hear from all of us."

Catch up quick: Biden criticized former President Trump and "MAGA forces" in a speech Thursday night, speaking outside Philadelphia's Independence Hall.

• The remarks were delivered amid glowing red lights with military members standing behind him.

The big picture: Biden's speech put former President Trump and his supporters in the spotlight. Democrats' decision to turn the midterm elections into a referendum on Trump could help their chances this fall, Axios' Shawna Chen writes.
