I don't kick sideways; I kick forward. 

I don't kick sideways; I kick forward is a meaningless answer Nikki Haley used continuously when asked to differentiate herself from her former boss Donald Trump during her presidential announcement press junkets.

This statement has no meaning and is a complete evasion of questions that were directly asked. The next time my wife asks me which one of her friends in the most attractive I’m going to say:

“I don’t kick sideways; I kick forward”.

It almost sounds like you are glibly answering the question.

Almost.
This is how you use “ I don't kick sideways; I kick forward.” as a conversational tactic:

Wife: Which one of my friends do you find the most attractive.

Husband: I don’t kick sideways; I kick forward.
I don't kick sideways; I kick forward. mug front
Get the I don't kick sideways; I kick forward. mug.
