Nikki Haley Criticizes Trump: He’s ‘Weak in the Knees When It Comes to Ukraine’
Breitbart ^ | 22 Sep 2023 | HANNAH BLEAU

Republican presidential hopeful Nikki Haley, a staunch supporter of providing U.S. aid to Ukraine, criticized former President Donald Trump on the campaign trail, asserting he is “weak in the knees when it comes to Ukraine.”

Speaking at an event in New Hampshire, where she has surpassed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in some surveys, Haley attempted to tread lightly when it came to criticizing the former president.

“He was the right president at the right time,” she said when asked, essentially, what Trump’s legacy will be 100 years from now.

She critiqued Trump not only on fiscal policy but also on his position on Ukraine, asserting that, “He used to be good on foreign policy and now he has started to walk it back and get weak in the knees when it comes to Ukraine.”

Haley is among those who believes it is in the United States’ best interests to provide aid to Ukraine in its defense against Russia. She also believes a Russian victory would only strengthen the country’s relationship with China, deeming Ukraine a “pro-American country that was invaded by a thug.”

NEW: @NikkiHaley explains why supporting Ukraine is putting America First. "I don't think we need to put troops on the ground. I don't think we need to write them blank checks but they have the passion to fight for their own freedom. Give them the ammunition to do it." pic.twitter.com/pIQnu0NBrg

“This is bigger than Ukraine,” Haley said during a CNN town hall in June. “This is a war about freedom and it’s one we have to win.”

GOP candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is among the minority who said he would halt United States aid to Ukraine.

Funny. Such bravery from a podium thousands of miles away. I don’t see Haley or Linda or, frankly, any big mouthed Zeepers gearing up and grabbing a rifle. If she’s looking for weak-kneed people any mirror will suffice.

Nikki loves war. Neocon to the core. Why not nuclear? We need to use those 6,000+ bombs before they become obsolete. Whee!!

Instead of criticizing Trump she should be applauding him for keeping us out of wars for four years. She is effectively saying she would do the opposite.

I kindly disagree. Most people in my opinion don’t care that much about supporting Ukraine. I dont approve of it, but don’t think about it much at all.
Right now I don’t think Ukraine is much of a political issue for the Republicans.

The DC crowd never saw a conflict that it didn’t want to get into. That’s because they never have to make any form of personal sacrifice or suffer the consequences of their actions. War is nothing but an abstraction to them.

Excellent question that none of the war conservatives or the warmongers can seem to answer. Their only line is we can’t do appeasement like Germany in 1938 and that was a completely different situation and time. Nobody wants to talk about any of the previous US administrations, NATO and Western Europe’s shady and illegal antics in the Ukraine for the last twenty-five years.

Am I saying that the US is responsible for the Ukraine war-NO, but we are not the innocent, minding our own business little fawns either in this quagmire. This is a war that could have been avoided with some statesmanship, diplomacy and some forward looking strategic thinking by the USA, something that hasn’t been in Washington DC since Ronald Reagan left town in January 1989. Trump was on the right trail and it would have exposed a lot of dirt and corruption on the part of many western politicians and countries and it would have kept the peace and that couldn’t be allowed, so war, again...

Weak people are always worried about appearing weak. Trump doesn’t have that problem

“Most people in my opinion don’t care that much about supporting Ukraine.”

*************

That may be but they should because its costing us an enormous amount of money and edging us ever closer to direct conflict with a nuclear power. Our involvement is also indirectly benefitting China who is reaping all kinds of insights by watching the NATO’s tactics and capabilities. Its a cost free bonanza of intel for China.

TRUMP has stood strong through attack after attack from the whole of the fed government.
Nikki.. Shut up!!!!

I want to add, I have family living in El Paso. She reports “they are everywhere with their backpacks” and when she steps outside her house, she has a weapon in her hand.
Is this okay, Joe and Barry? Do you also have them in your yard?

What you have done is unforgivable and it’s treason!

The ONLY interest the US has in Ukraine is to spend $Billions so that $Millions can get kicked back to corrupt officials. It’s a litmus test of who is and isn’t corrupt. Anyone supporting sending money to Ukraine is corrupt.
