GOOD RIDDANCE NIKKI HALEY AS UN AMBASSADOR

NIKKI HALEY LEAVES TRUMP ADMINISTRATION GOOD RIDDANCE

Nikki Haley had NO mandate from the PEOPLE.  Yet she had the effrontery to ignore the principles and policies that President Trump campaigned on and the People voted for:  getting out of Afghanistan, and Iraq; acknowledging that the Bush intervention in Iraq was a major disaster,  curtailing our disastrous and budget-busting military commitment in the many (seven by last count) civil wars around the world and in the Middle East, and concentrating our energies on making America First.  She was and remains a neo-con suppprter , and while at the UN used that body as a means of  inflating her own establishment credentials for her obvious and avid pursuit of a presidential run. God help us!

She was often too far out in front of the President—on policy, and too eager for media attention and publicity—- and certainly not a Trump team player.   The fact that she is out of the administration bodes well for those of us who would like to see the corrupt “Washington establishment types” and Hillary clones purged from the halls of government for good.

In a tweet yesterday Glen Greenwald noted that Haley was “probably the most pro-war imperialist” in the Trump Administration  (prior to Bolton).  According to Greenwald she: “ held every conventional” (and this author adds ‘failed’) “foreign policy view that has generated so much (worldwide) destruction” in the last two decades.

 Perhaps with Haley “the self-serving neo-con” gone from  her “cat bird media perch” in the UN the war drums with the Russians will be somewhat silenced and the innocent Syrians, Yemenis, Houthis, Afghanis,  and other targets of US drone and bomb attacks around the world might have a glimmer of hope for a breath of relief.
