(16,808 posts)Donald Trump demands loyalty. Nikki Haley's comment will be seen as disloyal.

(4,245 posts)Back to the kitchen with ya! Who hired her, anyway? (sez 45)
Freethinker65
(10,064 posts)Honestly, she was one of the saner (yeah, I know, but still...) Republicans.
malaise
(269,208 posts)she wants out
mercuryblues
(14,547 posts)She once called rape survivors a "special interests group" and tried to eliminate funding for rape crisis centers in SC. She is an opportunistic pig.
Rumor has it graham is interested in Sec of State. If he leaves the senate you can bet your bottom dollar she will run. Trump is toxic, so getting fired by him, while appearing to stand with women is her in.

"half-sane" is as far as GOPers (GrOPers?) go these days.
Sad.
PoorMonger
(844 posts)She wants no part in defending the move with Jerusalem and so shes looking for a fast exit. That or something even more terrible is coming and she just heard though the grapevine

(1,124 posts)IMO if she truly believed this and the other stands she has taken contrary to the tRump administration policies she would have been critical before he became president and not be serving under this administration. Anyone appointed by tRump has lost all credibility with me.

(22,056 posts)I wonder how the election would have turned out had Romney chosen her instead of Eddie Munster.
(Scary thoughts...)

(3,284 posts)She accepted an appointment from tRump knowing full well who and what he was and what chaos he would cause. She did it thinking to further her political career and now is starting to realize it was probably a serious mistake. She is in CYA mode. No thanks.
DAMANgoldberg
(1,278 posts)however, she had hit the ceiling in Republican politics in South Carolina and term-limited. McMaster wanted the Governor's chair and was asked first by the Trump team to join them; he declined.
BTW, she was a typical Rep. governor prior to the Charleston Nine. She personally knew Rev. Clementa Pinckney and it affected her state outlook.
Also a better governor than the previous Republican in both Carolinas. Not saying much, but it could be worse.

(6,890 posts)She is do a lot of dancing she mentioned the talking about Trump's election. She is not finished like some people are proclaiming.

(7,888 posts)is a Pence troll, imo. I do not trust a word out of her mouth.

(17,337 posts)the "right" response is that every one of those Trump accusers deserves to be sued!
Glad she said what she did.

Wish we had a middle finger smilie.
SCantiGOP
(13,874 posts)Tricky Nikki was my governor for 1 1/2 terms. She has no politics or morals - everything she does is carefully calculated to promote herself.
Either Trump OKed this to give the illusion that he allows mild dissent, or she thinks any repercussions because of it will further her personal agenda. She assumes that 1) the GOP ticket will be open in 2020, or, 2) she plans to run for Lindseys seat.
Iggo
(47,574 posts)Doesn't work, but it gets the point across.
I usually go both barrels.

Xolodno
(6,406 posts)...she's probably been getting the riot act read to her by every ambassador she passes in the hall at the UN. She probably wants out and realizes she could be an innocent bystander swept up in what happens to Trump Admin.
Progressive dog
(6,921 posts)Anyone who continues to facilitate the psychopath's criminal regime will get no praise from me. She's still supports him and won't be fired.
Grammy23
(5,815 posts)But then she didnt have to get mixed up in it in the first place. So its a little hard to work up any sympathy. She does have a deer in the headlights look most of the time so I m sure she has had second thoughts about the whole thing.
Skittles
(153,212 posts)she is sickening
Corgigal
(9,291 posts)Voted against her twice. Besides giving SC away to Boeing, who after just a few years started laying off a bunch of people.
Worthless. She was cheating on her hubby, but they closed down that story. Of course, her hubby , who was something in the military had to go do a tour on a remote.
Yep, right. Worthless, always.
Wounded Bear
(58,728 posts)No such thing as bad publicity, right? Trump has thrived off of negative press for decades. He'll shrug this off.
