‘That’s disgusting!’ UN envoy Nikki Haley slams rumor of affair with Trump
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] US Ambassador Nikki Haley ...Trump administration's ambassador to the UN. First woman to serve as Governor of South Carolina, and the second Indian-American governor in the country, after Bobby Jindal of Louisiana. At the age of 39, Haley was the youngest governor in the U.S., a distinction formerly held by Jindal. She is a Republican, which really grates on the Dems...has slammed rumors that she was having an affair with President Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... as "highly offensive" and "disgusting." The rumors stem from author Michael Wolff of the best-seller "Fire and Fury," who suggested in an interview that Trump was having an affair and that the liaison was with someone detailed in his book. Wolff wrote in his book that Haley, the most high-profile woman in Trump's administration, was positioning herself as the president's heir apparent. In an interview with Politico's Women Rule podcast on Thursday, Haley shot down talk of being romantically involved with the US president. "It is absolutely not true," Haley said. "It is highly offensive, and it's disgusting." She hit back at Wolff's assertion in his book that she was spending a lot of private time with Trump on his presidential plane and in the Oval Office. "I have literally been on Air Force One once and there were several people in the room when I was there," Haley said. "He says that I've been talking a lot with the president in the Oval about my political future. I've never talked once to the president about my future and I am never alone with him." Haley attributed the rumors to sexism from a "small group of men" uneasy with strong-willed women. "Most men respect women but there is a small group of men, that if you just do your job and you try and do it well and you are outspoken about it, they resent it. And they think the only option is to bring you down," she said.
 The diminutive 13-year-old Republican U.S. Senator from Florida...for the Republican nomination said she and Trump are in agreement on almost all policy issues. "We get along great, and I agree with almost everything that he has done," she said. Posted by: Fred 2018-01-28 |
