In my dreams she is our last UN ambassador. And not because we go away. Au contraire.

The head clown, Chuck Schumer and his fellow Democrats are unfair to the nominees, and people like me who expect a through and quick vetting of Cabinet candidates like that enjoyed by Pres. Obama’s nominees. Only 4 Cabinet officials have been confirmed thus far and full Senate voting has occurred late in the day so we the people can not see the swearing in ceremonies. Nicki Haley is my Governor and I think the delaying tactics of the Democrats are shameful..

I know, but the Trumpers will ALWAYS remember that she was once a #Nevertrumper, so she’d best not imagine that any of us will EVER vote for her.

Her pick as UN Amb is a strategic move by Trump in his destruction of the UN.

I wonder if Nikki is in on the plan.

Knowing Trump...Nikki is in the know.

And she approves of the death of the UN.

On another thread we have a freeper touting her for President, despite the fact that she is not a natural born citizen and is ineligible.
