Failed Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley, who once served as an Ambassador to the United Nations, lashed out at President-elect Donald Trump, referring to him as “shallow” after he revealed he wouldn’t be offering her a position in his administration. This amazes me. How can she possibly be upset about this? All during primary season earlier this year she slammed him over and over again, quite viciously at times. Why would he want someone like that on his team? Not to mention Haley is an establishment hack.
Americans have made it clear they are sick of people like that. We want real, true conservatives who will actually stick to their principles.

The comment appears to expose Haley’s resentment of Trump, who defeated her in the 2024 Republican presidential primary race. Haley dropped out in March after Super Tuesday. She eventually said she would vote for Trump over Vice President Kamala Harris in the months leading up to Election Day, but the endorsement did not cause Trump to bring Haley on the campaign trail as a surrogate, angering many establishment Republicans. After Trump defeated Harris in a landslide, Trump said Haley would have no place in his second administration.
“I will not be inviting former Ambassador Nikki Haley, or former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, to join the Trump administration,” he stated in a post on Truth Social. “I very much enjoyed and appreciated working with them previously, and would like to thank them for their service to our country.”
Haley, who claims she never wanted to work for Trump again, said Wednesday that Trump was “shallow” and that he was “playing games” she did not “need to play.” “I know the game he was playing. I don’t need to play that game,” she said on her weekly radio show on SiriusXM. “He can be shallow at times, and I think he showed that.”
“I had no interest in being in his cabinet. He knew that,” she added. “At this point, we should pray President Trump does well, we should pray that everyone he appoints does well,” she added.
You know, she says she has no interest in serving in a cabinet position, but come on. She’s an extremely ambitious person. There’s no doubt in my mind she was still hoping Trump would toss her a bone. Perhaps if she hadn’t continued to hang on in the primary despite all evidence pointing toward folks having zero interest in her being the nominee. I believe if she had been the one to take on Kamala Harris, we would have lost.
Thankfully, God had mercy on our country.
