I’m kinda for this. Send the politically-correct establishment hack to the politically-correct establishment organization.
Hey, Trump gets the best of both worlds here, he promotes his guy to an elected position he’s like to get more done in South Carolina and he get Haley in a position where she serves at the President’s pleasure - win, win.
On the other hand, appointing someone with no apparent qualifications for the job, like Haley, is an indication of just how unimportant Trump feels the UN Ambassador is.
My South Carolina relative s can’t wait for her to be gone.
Trump said: “Don’t believe any reports on my Cabinet picks until you hear it directly from my own mouth.”.
So, I don’t.
I don’t believe any of these reports , but especially I don’t believe the ones from ‘anonymous sources’ published in leftist media.
She is NOT strong enough to go into that SWAMP of CROCODILES....they will eat her alive! Or she wil CRY!
This is insane. So she will denounce her own president at the U.N. when he restricts Muslim refugees. Lovely.
I am liking the picks so far. Mostly worried about whether Trump will follow-through on campaign statements or start negotiating them away. Some mixed messages that are a bit troubling but they are through the prism of media which attack him at every opportunity. Best thing is seeing him troll them, continuing his in-your-face approach. Wonderful.
What other picks pending?
Not sure how she will perform at the UN, but Henry will be a dramatic upgrade as SC governor.
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
Trump can control what these GOPe “allies”, like Haley and Romney, say and do and make sure they support his agenda. If they don’t walk the line they can be fired which won’t help their future political ambitions.
I believe Prince is the one pushing the dumb picks
Isnt she friends with anti American pro-globalist Mitt Romney?
Seriously?
Sounds like a smart move
RINO to the worthless UN post and replaced by Trump supporter
I would like to THANK Trump for this appointment.
I live in South Carolina and will be GLAD to be rid of Nikki Haley!
Like most she started out conservative and turned liberal. She was against Trump most of the election.
Glad she will be gone.
Does he get one affirmative action point or two?
Pray America woke
If she signs on to Trump's agenda, she'll do fine - she can worry a bout the ramifications to her future career because I really have no way of knowing where it will take her.
Can't help but note that it is another unattributed rumor at this point.
I think there are other motives at work in a lot of Trump plans so I’ll just go along with the guy we elected. And see what happens, he has billions and I don’t so he must be kinda smart cause I aint.
Trump HATES the U.N.
Not only does this put her in a position of utter disrespect within the new administration, Trump gets his man as the new governor.
It isn't possible in our federal system for a president-elect to fire a governor, but Trump just did, in a perfectly legit way.
The sad part is the people on his own side who don't see the beauty of it all.
People, this is a win.
It shuffles off a prominent RINO into a useless sinecure, and replaces her as Gov of SC with one of Trump’s earliest supporters.
