Nikki Haley, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, said in an interview last week she believes President Donald Trumps presidency is being used by God to create change and to help teach the United States lessons.
Haley, a former governor for South Carolina, was responding to a question during an interview with CBN News chief political analyst David Brody, which questioned Gods reasoning for making Trump president of the United States.
Brody asked: What is your view kind of spiritually on the sovereignty of God and what he is doing exactly by putting Donald Trump as president of the United States?
Well, I think that it goes to show that everything happens for a reason, and the way I see it is look at the results of Donald Trump as president, Haley replied.
Haley added that Americans should observe, and notice that more friends and family are employed than ever before.
We have the economy moving in a direction it hasnt been in a long time but is doing great.
We are acknowledging real truths with the president that had the courage to move the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, Haley added.
The 47-year-old, who has spoken openly about her Christian faith in the past, said she believes Trump has been very courageous to change what was the status quo and to do it in a way the American people wanted to see it.
They did want a disruptor-in-chief. They did want someone who was going to go against the grain and get us out of our comfort zone.
She added: I think that God sometimes places people for lessons and sometimes places people for change. And you can look at everything that has happened, and I think we are seeing a lot of change, and I think we are gaining a lot of lessons from it as well.
Haleys comments came as outgoing Energy Secretary Rick Perry said he thinks Trump is the chosen one.
Perry made the remarks in an interview released by Fox & Friends over the weekend.
Gods used imperfect people all through history. King David wasnt perfect. Saul wasnt perfect. Solomon wasnt perfect, Perry told Fox News. And I actually gave the president a little one-pager on those Old Testament kings about a month ago, and I shared it with him.
I said, Mr. President, I know there are people that say you said you were the chosen one, and I said, You were.
Perry said theres a plan for the people who rule and judge over us on this planet in our government.
I said, If youre a believing Christian, you understand Gods plan for the people who rule and judge over us on this planet in our government.
Barack Obama didnt get to be the president of the United States without being ordained by God. Neither did Donald Trump.
Regarding Trump, he said, I hope Ive been a bit of a minister, if you will, a person whos been able to share my faith with the president.
Earlier this year amid the trade war, Trump referred to himself as the chosen one to take on Chinas trade practices.
He said: Somebody said this is Trumps trade war. Its not my trade war. This is a trade war that should have taken place a long time ago by a lot of other presidents.
Somebody had to do it. I am the chosen one.
Trump later said he was just joking and having fun when he made the comment.
She better quit babbling like a complete lunatic
What the hell does that mean? Speak English woman. I don't trust her one bit.
Well at least she didn't say Hope and Change.
She may run but she cannot hide her nagging eligibility problem...
Mutually assured destruction should either side object to the other side’s candidate.
Or if you prefer, “don’t ask, don’t tell”.
Either way you look at it the U.S. electorate was horribly ill-served by the two main political parties in 2008.
I don't trust her one bit. And those eyes.
I don’t believe anything Nikki Haley says is genuine. I will never forget the despicable GOP State of the Union (2016) response, in which she repeatedly took digs at Trump.
I see we arent going to discuss the article, FReepers just hear to bash Haley.
Does anyone wonder why so many of us long time Freepers left?
“We are commanded to pray for all of them.”
True. And when Obama was president, his name was spoken in my prayers — in a certain fashion.
Looks to me like both subjects are being discussed. And both subjects are worthy of being discussed as far as what Haley’s motives may be.
Tell her to go away,Donald Trump jr.is a good candidate as well as Florida governor,Forget Haley she is a blow hard
Good God!!
How many people in this country in positions of power were born somewhere else or their eligibility to run for president is questioned?
Haley, Cruz and there was another one.
Perhaps powerful parents with overseas positions is the reason? It would make sense their kids would go on to some political position
I dont believe anything Nikki Haley says is genuine.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You shouldn’t, she is the female Mitt Romney and a Romney backer.
The founders used natural born citizen as the strictest type of citizenship that would not allow any foreign influence on the Commander-In-Chief.
Someone born with ONE nationality, ONE allegiance, ONE loyalty, naturally a citizen because they could not be anything else.
All the popular children of foreign nationals were themselves born foreign nationals and are NOT natural born citizens.
Jindal, Haley, Rubio, Cruz, George P. Bush, Kamalalala Harris, etc.
I agree. I’m just amazed there are so many.
But i guess a number of foreign nationals had political clout and money and thus their kids went into politics.
I will NEVER vote for her no matter what.
