Nikki Haley warns UN: Americans don't want to 'pay for the privilege of being disrespected'
Washington Examiner ^ | Dec 21, 2017 | Joel Gehrke

World leaders rebuking the United States at the United Nations shouldn’t expect the American people any longer to “pay for the privilege of being disrespected,” U.S. Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley warned Thursday.

“In the case of the United States, we are asked to pay more than any other nation for that dubious distinction,” Haley told the UN General Assembly. “We have an obligation to demand more for our investment. And if our investment fails, we have an obligation to spend our investment in more productive ways.”

She makes an excellent trump representative. That’s pretty much all the praise I can muster for her.

So, Nikki, I’m sure Pres Trump would agree to throwing the UN out and off of U.S. soil.

God bless Nikki Haley. She is proving to be an iron lady putting American interests first at that country club for rogue regimes and bloody-handed dictators.

Something long, long overdue.

By the way. Without the USA investment and support, the UN would be nothing more than a charity organization and shadow puppets. They don’t have a boat that floats if a puddle flooded.

This is pretty much a text book example of "having the right person in the right job".

It'll be interesting to see where she winds up after this gig.

“It’ll be interesting to see where she winds up after this gig.”

One day she might be a great fit for the Oval Office.

Good for her!

Nikki Haley warns UN: Americans don’t want to ‘pay for the privilege of being disrespected’!

This also applies to the left wingers in America, their mediots and congressits.

Trump’s 62+ million deploreables are tired of your disrespect of our country, us and our President!

The UN is a frikkin joke. We’re paying billions of dollars so these dirt bags can live like kings while they bleed their own countries dry and leave their people in third world conditions. About 15 years ago I had the son of a high ranking UN official offer to get me a diplomatic UN passport for $10k.

With the UN, Nikki Haley has to redress a bunch of spoiled kids accustomed to be pleased for any demand.
She tries spanking but most of those kids are impossible to educate. The most realistic solution is to abandon them to their parents.
