Everyone else is reporting she's staying through the end of the year.

Is she bailing out, or is she maneuvering for a different cabinet position like AG?

I wonder if I am the one who has considered that because she has a family, she wanted to do something else as a UN position seems to be quite taxing.

Haley sounded like she was satisfied with her accomplishments and needs a break.

This’ll hurt.

This will give the media joy because I'm already hearing Trump admin in turmoil. No matter why she is leaving.

I was watching the NBC live feed of it and even they were saying it was an amicable parting. Naturally, they then took the time to bask in talk about Tillerson split and others, but about this one they said, I repeat, that it was "amicable."

Whatever you think or say it is, the opposite will be true. ;)

Maybe. Maybe not. The precedent has been set. She opened this up for another badass to take over.

I'm very sad to hear (read?) this. Haley has been a VERY good UN Ambassador, and won't be easy to replace.

As for the lunatic leftists' gleeful assertions about "turmoil" and "chaos" and all that, :rolleyes:, I expect no less from them. That's their whole purpose in life, apparently: Kicking dirt on everybody's food, pissing in everybody's punchbowl, poking fingers in everybody's eyes. My 5-yr-old special needs grandson shows more restraint and maturity than leftists.

According to what I've heard is that she wants less travel due to family. And also what I myself would interpret as she's feeling burned out a bit(my words). Though I'm pretty sure that you and your types are salivating for something nefarious, and terrible, like maybe Trump grabbing her private parts, or her being upset that Kavanaugh was confirmed after the accusations, but nope, no such luck for you. After 6 years as a state governor and two years as UN Ambassador, alot of people would need some time off. But if Trump decides not run again, I'm all for a Haley/Bolton ticket in 2020, and if he does decide to run for a second term, then Haley/Bolton 2024 works. Now I'm not one to vote based on one's demographic, I would vote for Haley because of what she stands for. But wouldn't it be great to see the liberals' heads exploding that the first woman POTUS is a minority, and a republican and not a baby killing feminazi. Can anyone fully comprehend the stress the liberals will feel, being unable to blame their loss, and the ones who voted against their candidate on an "ism".

Her future is not in the UN. I like the job she did, and her resume now has a very impressive bullet point. She has bigger fish to fry is my guess.

If we hold the Senate with good people, I believe we have a man available-the Stache!

media is peddling story she left over Kavanaugh
The left has no bottom. Anything they can spin to pitch their agenda is far game to them.

...back to the regularly scheduled leftist dribble bibs....

She's climbing inside your head to see if you'll start commenting about her ankles.

Yeah, I'll buy that. Primary reason I resigned from a Major German Multinational in '08 was the increasing Travel; it got to the point where I where I would get almost physically ill at the thought of getting on another plane again.

The German Multinational was interested in multi-million dollar engineering projects, even if you had to travel to BFE to get the deal... and they were leaving (local) $25K/$50K/$100k projects on the table. I saw my niche. Yeah, even if it's only getting "table-scraps" from the multinationals.

22 days away from the 10th anniversary of the "Smithee Organization". I need to plan something. It will be in the Atlanta area and y'all are invited. PM me if interested.

Maybe we will be lucky, and the reason why she is leaving at the end of the years is because we will not need an UN Ambassador.

I'll throw my hat in the ring: Card carrying John Bircher back in the day, "Get US out of the UN", I have street-cred on this. If I could be the very LAST US ambassador to the UN? I would consider it not just an Honor but a Duty.

(Heck, WHY NOT? Somebody has to do it and I'm at least above average. )

Fox News says Trump and Haley already talked about this 6 months ago. It was decided then, but the leakers didn’t know.
