Nikki Haley criticizes Trump’s Ukraine stance as weak.
Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley Takes Aim at Trump
In a fiery speech at the Portsmouth Rotary Club Meeting, former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley didn’t hold back in criticizing her former boss, ex-President Donald Trump. Haley called him out for being “weak in the knees” when it came to supporting Ukraine and described him as “thin-skinned and easily distracted.”
“He was the right president at the right time,” Haley acknowledged. ”He broke things that needed to be broken. He listened and gave a voice to those who felt unheard. He displayed strength in foreign policy, earning America respect worldwide.”
However, Haley swiftly shifted her focus to attacking Trump’s shortcomings.
“He was thin-skinned and easily distracted,” Haley asserted. “He neglected fiscal policy, spending recklessly, and now we’re all paying the price. While he did better than Biden on border control, he has backtracked on his once-strong stance on foreign policy, particularly when it comes to Ukraine.”
A recent Fox News poll revealed that 56% of Republicans believe the U.S. should reduce support to Ukraine. Similarly, a CNN poll found that 55% of Americans oppose additional funding for Ukraine.
The Trump Campaign swiftly responded to Haley’s criticism, dismissing her credibility and accusing her of aligning with biased media.
“It’s silly that anyone who is polling as low as left-leaning corporate media should be lecturing anyone about leadership,” retorted the Trump Campaign to The Daily Wire.

Trump Campaign Spokesman Steven Cheung defended Trump’s record, emphasizing his potential to bring peace and end conflicts.
“There’s only one person who can end the killing and bring peace — President Trump,” Cheung asserted. “America won’t listen to those advocating for more war, bloodshed, and innocent lives lost.”
How did Haley criticize Trump’s handling of the Ukraine crisis?
At the right time, but he had some serious flaws,” Haley said. “His ego often got in the way of making sound decisions and his lack of focus was evident in his erratic behavior.”
Haley, who served as U.N. Ambassador for two years under the Trump administration, has gained a reputation for her confidence and strong-willed personality. However, her recent criticism of Trump marks a significant departure from her previous public remarks, in which she praised his leadership and accomplishments.
During her speech, Haley expressed her disappointment with Trump’s handling of the Ukraine crisis. She accused him of not providing enough support to Ukraine in its conflict with Russia, which she believes allowed Russia to assert its dominance in the region.
“He should have taken a stronger stance and rallied international support for Ukraine,” Haley stated. “Instead, he appeared indecisive and uncertain, leaving Ukraine vulnerable to Russian aggression.”
Haley’s criticism extended beyond foreign policy, as she also took aim at Trump’s personal traits and behavior. She described him as “thin-skinned and easily distracted,” suggesting that these qualities hindered his ability to effectively govern.
“He would often get swayed by the opinions of others and lacked the discipline to stay focused on the task at hand,” Haley remarked. “This lack of focus often resulted in poor decision-making and diminished trust among his advisors.”
While Haley’s criticisms may come as a surprise to some, she emphasized that her intention was not to diminish Trump’s achievements but rather to hold him accountable for his shortcomings.
“I believe in being honest and transparent, even when it comes to our leaders,” Haley asserted. “We must learn from our mistakes and strive for better leadership in the future.”
Haley’s speech has ignited a flurry of responses from both sides of the political spectrum. Some view her remarks as a courageous act of speaking truth to power, while others see it as a betrayal of the Republican Party and Trump’s loyal base.
Regardless of the reactions, Haley’s willingness to publicly criticize a former boss and prominent figure within her own party showcases her determination to prioritize truth and accountability above personal loyalties.
As she continues to assert her voice and influence within the political landscape, Haley’s remarks serve as a reminder that open dialogue and criticism are essential for growth and progress. By holding our leaders to a higher standard, we ensure that they are truly serving the best interests of the people they represent.
As for Trump, whether he will respond to Haley’s criticism or dismiss it as a personal attack remains to be seen. Nonetheless, it is clear that his former ambassador’s comments have made an impact and sparked an important conversation about leadership and accountability in today’s political climate.
