U.S. Envoy Nikki Haley says she shares John Bolton's disdain for the U.N.

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.

I see what she said is in quotes...but I certainly think it is out of context.

I certainly appreciate straight speaking people. Too few exist in this PC era.

Then close up shop and withdraw all US funding. Give the UN their 30-day eviction notice from NY and convert the building to condominiums.

Note the building that is taller than the UN Building is the Trump Tower. Coincidence? I think not.

I have utterly no use for Nikki Haley.

The UN sucks and is a corrupt chithole.

That's Trump World Tower. Trump Tower is away from the river on Fifth.

But your picture still makes the point well.

Whether that’s a problem depends on which people. I say a lot of things conservative people want to hear...

Allan Keyes would make it a tri-fecta.

Haven’t heard a peep out of Mr. Keyes in some time. Any idea of what he is doing these days?

He has pretty much retired I think.

I really enjoyed his speeches.
