Ivanka Trump to replace Nikki Haley? Speculation runs rampant after UN ambassador resigns

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Within moments of news breaking that United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley was resigning, speculation roared about whether President Trump would pick his daughter and White House adviser Ivanka Trump to fill the role.

CNN anchor Poppy Harlow floated the possibility at least twice on air Tuesday morning, noting that whoever replaces Haley would need to have “strong relationships” with lawmakers from both parties.

“I do think she may have some interest in a role like this that would truly put her on the world stage and put her focus on some more of the global issues where she may be able to have some success,” Harlow said.

“There’s been talk about how her and her husband would like to get back to New York,” CNN political analyst Mark Preston said. Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, previously lived in New York City before moving to Washington to work in the White House.

14. Yea but that law is toothless (mostly)

meaning that if the Senate approves her, the only thing that happens is she can't draw a paycheck.

4. If we thought $52k on Haley's curtains was expensive - just wait!

11. Gold,

just saying!

5. How could she make it through the confirmation process?

She designs shoes and handbags. How will that experience help as the UN Ambassador? She probably just wants it to somehow expand her clothing and accessory empire. Two birds with stone, ya know.

6. Did you see what they just put on the Supreme Court?

They put that monster in a lifetime position. Do you think they are going to have any kind of problem putting whatever piece of shit Trump puts up for this job?

[meadowlark5]

10. Yeah, I knew the repubs would vote her through no matter what.

It just seems insane. A New York socialite that designs handbags and shoes. But Trump did just say this morning that the position is now much more glamorous since Haley has been in it. Maybe a hint that he wants a fashion designer to take it over.

Good grief. When will this madness end?

7. Nepotism?

Isn't this illegal and will most likely compromise the U.S. when she puts her and her family's business above the interests of the people of the United States?

9. Imagine the laughs we would get with her.

The world already laughs at us with her we would be the joke of the whole world.

12. Nope. Sarah Palin. You heard it here first.

Or Ted Nugent. You heard THAT here first, too.

13. Would anyone else at the UN take her seriously?
