Nikki Haley was offered Secretary of States job and turned it down

Nikki Haley demanded ‘policy freedom’ from Trump and as UN Ambassador it seems she has got it.

The highly controversial US Ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley has stated that prior to Donald Trump taking office, he offered her the position of Secretary of State, the American equivalent of Foreign Minister, but she declined.

According to Haley,

“I’m very aware of when things are right and when they are not. I just thought he could find someone better”.

The man who eventually got the position was Rex Tillerson. Tillerson  continues to serve as Secretary of State, although many have speculated that he is not happy with the way things work in Washington.

This did not stop Haley from making further demands on Donald Trump when offered the position of Ambassador to the United Nations.

According to CNN, with whom Haley spoke extensively,

“First, she told Trump she wanted to be a member of the Cabinet and the National Security Council, privileges enjoyed by her predecessors in the Obama administration. Perhaps most importantly, she wanted the latitude to be herself, to say what she wanted”.

Haley who has no previous foreign policy experience felt that she would never be granted the powers she demanded, but when Trump agreed, she took the position.

Haley recounted the story in the following way,

“I said ‘I am a policy girl, I want to be part of the decision-making process’. He said, ‘done.’ And I said, ‘I don’t want to be a wallflower or a talking head. I want to be able to speak my mind”.

Some of Haley’s most infamous policy positions include

Never trusting Russia 

–Pre-blaming Syrian President Bashar al-Assad for  a chemical attack which never happened

–Threatening war with North Korea while refusing to even rule out nuclear warfare 

–Accusing Iran of violating the so-called nuclear deal when the UN and even the US State Department said Iran is in full compliance

–Accusing the UN of bullying Israel when Israel has violated more UN Resolutions than any other country

–Repeatedly saying ‘Assad must go’–even when her superiors say otherwise

Nikki  Haley has incrasingly been at odds not only with responsible global opinion but with many of Trump’s own supporters. Her neo-con idology is seen as out of touch with the so-called Bannonite thinking which remains popular among supporters of the US President.

So can we have an example of how this less shrill, but as evil as samantha powers narcissist’s (probably what got her the job with tRump) “policy freedom” differs from that of the tRump (in name only) “administration” (this week’s edition) ?

Bush the III has turned out to be a neo-con’s wet dream with this hag’s cheering on at the UN.

She’s less shrill because she appears to have a reading age around 10yrs old. Very deliberate and slow.

She calls herself a ‘girl’, so she must accept her low reading age.

She is one of the symptoms of the Fall of the US Empire, latching on to ensuring that reason or ratio (ever since Enlightenment) does not get a chance in the UN as far as the US is concerned).

Trump is the 5th horseman accompanying the fall of the empire. It called for someone with his personality and narcissism to do that job right.

Haley’s installment by Trump shows exactly why Trump was forced to pollute the swam instead of draining it: he tried to appease his opponents at the cost of his friends. He assumed those who were for him, despite their departures would still yield him off-office loyalty. At the same time his opponents would be turned if he offered them jobs. He thought wrong. Now all that is left is family who are both used – Kushner as a spy for Israel and Ivanka as the wildcard for whomever to keep pushing liberal political correctness. He chased away Miller, Bannon, everybody… Read more »

Nikki reads slowly because her brain power is mostly used to generate the witless struggle to start WW111 She goes well beyond the shining house on the hill, and the USA we’re number one. She is more vile than anyone I have ever seen in USA Government. Where do people like NIkki Haley acquire such venom ?

Go take a look at State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert. She’s just as bad as Nikki Haley (Nimrata Randhawa is her real name).

She said ‘I am a policy girl’? Any woman who calls herself a girl lacks the basic credentials to be in serious politics at all. Those words also explain her immature, playground behaviour in the UN.

Since he said, before he was elected, that the UN was a waste of money, I assumed he gave Haley the job because he didn’t care about it. She was the token woman/ethnic minority: two for the price of one. The Conservatives here in Britain play that trick quite a lot.

North Korea hot it right: “North Korea calls US ambassador Nikki Haley a ‘prostitute swishing her skirt'”

“She is crazily swishing her skirt, playing the flagship role in Trump administration’s hideous sanctions and pressure racket,” the state-run Korean Central News Agency said of Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley.

The agency added: “Nikki should be careful with her tongue though she might be a blind fool. The US administration will have to pay a dear price for her tongue-lashing.”

“As the New York Times reports: The United States ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki R. Haley, has often been the first, most outspoken member of the Trump administration to weigh in on key foreign policy issues … Now, in an apparent attempt to foster greater coherence in American foreign policy, State Department officials are urging her aides to ensure her public remarks are cleared by Washington first.” Perhaps it is because Ivanka likes her! “praise from the president’s daughter Ivanka. On Twitter, she posted a photograph of Ms. Haley surrounded by the Security Council diplomats and wrote: “The world… Read more »
