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.

Not only are we spending billions defending a corrupt county - but these people expect us to rebuild their country in the event we ‘win’...

I’ve heard more than a few people compare DJT to Teddy Roosevelt in very similar ways.

“Their only line is we can’t do appeasement like Germany in 1938 ...”


This is their insanity as well as their ignorance.

The much more relevant example is WW1, where the invasion of Serbia in response to a State-sponsored assassination led to a continent-wide war that killed tens of millions.

“WE DON’T HAVE THE MONEY”

Our ‘money’ isn’t money. It’s debt instruments and has been ever since 1953.

We are not going to run out of IOU’s for the Federal Reserve (a consortium of privately owned banks) anytime soon.

Nimarata is very glib about winning a shooting war with Russia via the “provide aid” to a small country method. The weapons and $B provided so far are probably miniscule compared to what victory would require.

So I continue to wonder what is really going on. Probably pick any combination from this list: incompetence, corruption, kickbacks, treason, stupidity, inertia and zero accountability.

The net result from this feckless neocon/globalist bunch, if we manage to avoid WWIII, will probably be a further diminished USA and a decimated generation of Ukrainian young people.

Nikki Haley fails to mention that the Biden Regime’s aid fails to give weapons when they are needed. That way, Russia always has the advantage and whatever aid is given is wasted.

Trump isn’t weak in the knees when it comes to Ukraine. He’s just unwilling to fight Russia to the last Ukrainian (or, to our last available $USD$).
