Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley on Sunday explained why she once praised her fellow candidate Vivek Ramaswamy but is criticizing him now.

At issue is Mr. Ramaswamy’s recent decision to join the Chinese video-sharing app TikTok, becoming the first GOP presidential candidate to join the platform. He said it was a way to reach out to young voters, but for months before signing up, he repeatedly criticized the app as “digital fentanyl” and suggested that the app should be banned.
