A onetime member of the Trump administration has some mildly critical words for her old boss but disagrees with Congress’ efforts to impeach him.
Former Ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley said in an interview with NPR on Friday that “it is not a good practice for us ever to ask a foreign country to investigate an American” — referring to President Trump’s efforts to get Ukraine to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden, his potential 2020 opponent.
But, she added, “I don’t see it as impeachable.”
Haley, who served from 2017 to 2018, has written a book about her time as ambassador — With All Due Respect: Defending America With Grit and Grace.
In the interview, she said it’s “arrogant” of Congress to attempt to impeach Trump before an election year. “Did the Ukrainians call for an investigation? No,” Haley said. “Did the president hold up aid? He released it as he should,” she said. And so, in her view, there was no “smoking gun.”

This is what Trump has done to the Ukraine. This is impeachable whether or not it succeeded just like a bank robbery is illegal whether or not it was only planned and never succeeded.

She’s aiming for the “center” of the Republican party with this. Who wants to bet she’s not planning a run at the top job? Of fricking course she’s not gonna say anything that will alienate the party! Don’t expect anything of truth or value from her.
