U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley said on Thursday she shares incoming national security adviser John Bolton’s disdain for the world body and believes the two will work well together.

Bolton, who was U.S. envoy to the United Nations for President George W. Bush, will become President Donald Trump’s national security adviser on Monday. He once said it would make no difference if 10 floors were knocked off the U.N. headquarters in New York.

“I know John Bolton well. I have gotten advice from him, I have talked to him. I know his disdain for the U.N. I share it,” Haley said at Duke University in North Carolina. “I think we’re going to have a great working relationship.”

Haley, a former South Carolina governor who is known for her blunt diplomacy at the United Nations, said she was not worried about Bolton telling her what to do.

Since taking up her position in January last year, Haley has pushed to cut the amount of money the United States spends on the United Nations and has been critical of what she describes as an anti-Israel bias at the world body and its institutions.

Haley was born to two Indian nationals.
Children of foreign nationals inherit the nationality of their foreign parent(s).
People born with divided nationalities, loyalties and allegiances are exactly who the founders were excluding with the natural born citizen requirement.

Funny, I have disdain for both Haley, and the UN. Her shrieking, and emotional performances, sometimes even accompanied by props doesn’t convince me of anything...except that probably the exact opposite is true.

Nikki Haley @ Duke “Russia will never be our friend...we’ll slap them down when we need to”

Sorry, she is a disgrace in my book.

Somehow I get the impression Haley says whatever she thinks some people want to hear??

Is that a question or a statement!!!

Have you ever listened to some of her comments while doing her job????? he definitely ain't a brown-noser.
