nited Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley said on Sunday that she won’t defend President Trump’s “communication style.”
"First of all, he has his communication style," Haley told CBS’s “Sunday Morning.” "But you're not hearing me defend that.
"What I will tell you is if there is anything that he communicates in a way that I'm uncomfortable with, I pick up the phone and call him, and I tell him that. And I think that's something that he deserves from me,” the former South Carolina governor said.
Haley said that she doesn’t believe she needs to publicly detail the private conversations she has with the president but noted that she thinks Trump is receptive to them.
Haley hit back at the White House last month after a top adviser claimed that she was confused when she said the administration would impose new sanctions on Russia.
“With all due respect, I don’t get confused,” Haley said in a statement that was read on Fox News.
Her statement came hours after top White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow said that Haley “got ahead of the curve” when she announced during a Sunday interview show that the administration would roll out the sanctions the next day.
Kudlow later told The New York Times that he told Haley he had misspoken due to incomplete information.
On Sunday, Haley also said that the president should not shut down special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election but added that the investigation needs to wrap up quickly “for the good of the country.”

There’s nothing to defend. He could go full William Buckley on them and they’d hate him just as much, and continue to bitch about him.
I bet McCain invited NiKKKi to his funeral.
I don't see it that way. When something bothers her she speaks out, rather than remaining the silent little mouse in the corner. Very much like President Trump.
It's the other side that is always saying "If you don't agree with us, shut up".
I love the way he communicates. He says things I wish all the other Republican candidates for Congress and President had said. He fights back. He’s not fighting for himself...he’s fighting for us and this country. I can’t speak for Trump or Haley, but at some point, in order to work cohesively and successfully, you have to be able to advise a superior or subordinate, that you don’t agree with something he or she has said or done. The boss or subordinate might not like it, but it’s a part of working together to get things done. Trump didn’t get where he is by ignoring advice he got from other people. If he doesn’t like what Haley said on TV, I’m sure he’ll be letting her know, one way or the other. You’re right...Trump is Trump. There’s never been a President like him ever before.
Great response.
“Respect”?
Sorry, but Trump isn’t very good at that himself, so worrying about respect for him is kind of silly.
If he can dish it out, maybe he can take some. Apparently he can, more than the Always-Trump people are.
Women today feel they have to be heard from
Watch any reality show
Why do you care about first woman president?
Identity politics is a tool of our enemies
Not a natural born citizen even if born here as her parents were foreign nationals.
Citizen by virtue of laws, not by nature.
If Mexican anchor babies can be citizens, she can be a citizen.
We’ll see what the court says.
Citizen is not the same as natural born citizen.
The distinction is made in the Constitution.
I loathe Nikki Haley. She is a worthless piece of crap. If the Republicans are dumb enough to ever nominate her, I will sit out any election she is in.
Bye bye, Nikki, bye bye!
I hope your Boss-in-Chief and our President kicks you in your liberal butt right through the “YOU’RE FIRED!” goalposts.
I hope that’s all it is
Oh Bullslit.
Trump has taken more than any President in our history and is doing fine.
He is the President. Nikki is Amb to the UN.
She serves the President and it is her that needs to show respect.
If she wants to grandstand and jump on the media bandwagon or go back to NeverTrumper’dom...let her, her future will be doomed.
No
And Yes
She is clearly an arrogant beyotch who thinks waaaay too much of herself
Not anyone Trump should have in his administration
South Carolina’s loss was our loss
Cite a tangible accomplishment
Making angry bitchy speeches written by Jonah Goldberg’s wife is not a tangible accomplishment
BS. Nikki SHOULD have said it isn’t her place to judge Trump’s style of communication.
—
Well, his “style of communication” was enough to get 60 million people in this country to vote him into office, with no previous political experience. So if his “style of communication” isn’t good enough for Haley, maybe she should find some job with someone whose “style of communication” she approves of.
As for those of you here who agree with her, go pound sand and hope your lisping pretty boy Marco or “real conservative” Ted “matching tattoo” Cruz gets a shot next time. We LOVE our President. If you don’t, you’re on the wrong board.
“Great independent thinkers.”
Only when a republican is in power we hear the calls for independent thinkers.
