Nikki Haley in Taiwan says an isolationist policy is not healthy, while expressing support for Trump
Former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley on Saturday said that an isolationist policy isn’t “healthy” and called on the Republican party to stand with her country’s allies during a visit to Taiwan, while still putting in good words for Republican nominee Donald Trump.
Former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley, on a visit to Taiwan Saturday said an isolationist policy isn’t “healthy” and called on the Republican Party to stand with her country’s allies, while still putting in good words for the party’s nominee, Donald Trump.
Haley, who ran against Trump for the Republican presidential nomination, told reporters in the capital, Taipei, that supporting U.S. allies, including Ukraine and Israel, is vital, and she underscored the importance of Taiwan — which Beijing claims as its territory, to be brought under control by force if necessary.
“I don’t think the isolationist approach is healthy. I think America can never sit in a bubble and think that we won’t be affected,” she said.
Why is she "visiting Taiwan" as if she's some important diplomat? She is not currently... anything?
Because if you're a Republican, you can violate the Logan Act with impunity.
-
I don't think she thought she was negotiating anything.
-
If John Sparkman, George McGovern, and John Kerry didn't get indicted for violating it, I think it's just unenforceable law for anyone.

At one point, I actually respected Haley for running against Trump and calling out his constant crap. But she has zero spine. She's turned out to be just another maga supporter defending him at every turn.
Is that surprising to you? Anyone left in the Republican party cares more about money and power than principles or whatever else you think a politician is supposed to care about.
Not surprised. Just sad to see that she actually turned out to be just like the others. Wouldn't have voted for her either way, but still.
whatever else you think a politician is supposed to care about.
Technically, that’s the republic. Currently it’s the unheard and unseen masses of staffers and wonks and bureaucrats who hold this mess together. The fancy poster boy people are just there to rally the common folk around a single figure.
She’s turned out to be just another maga supporter defending him at every turn.
She's a creature of the GOP donor class
How to endorse Harris without endorsing Harris…?
I have as much faith in Nikki "doing the right thing" as I do Melania. They've bent the knee and kissed the
ringmushroom micropenis, and made it very clear who they are. We should listen.
Bet she chews Tylenol like tic-tacs from the constant whip-lash she's got flip flopin like this
Why is she still here?
The cognitive dissonance is real. How this silly twit can say "isolationism is bad" and "Trump good" in the same breath is truly astounding.
Trump worked toward isolationism like nobody in the last century and if he gets in again, Project 2025 puppetmasters will take that up by an order of magnitude as they create a new Sharia law environment and distance the rest of the world even further.
How this silly twit can say “isolationism is bad” and “Trump good” in the same breath is truly astounding.
Trump isn't isolationist, he just endorses a different distribution of geopolitical allies than Biden and the Democrats.
Stop fighting Russia, start fighting China.
I wonder how much she got for her spine?
Can't sell something you never had.
Oh, shut up, Nimarata "Nikki" Randhawa Haley. You don't give two shits about America being isolationist or not. You only want Taiwan to stay independent because of its tech. If it was just any other island nation in the Pacific, you'd let China take it and not bat an eye.
You back a party that would turn on you and JD Vance's wife, given a chance. They don't care about you. They like white, seemingly Christian men. They would sooner suck Trump's dick then shake the hand of Indian woman like yourself.
Nikki is her middle name, not a nickname. The quotes are unnecessary.
This is just sad. It's like a victim of dv who quickly corrects themselves when they say something their abuser doesn't like.
She might be half right.
Well that's... that's just weird
It's Cold War politics.
My enemy of my enemy must be my friend. So be a team player and get with the program.
No no! Its fine! He still allows trade and immigration from all over the world, it's just that it can only be people he personally allows. /sarcasm
Like his wife. :p
And his daughter's textile business.
And all of his own merchandise.
Just let him go. I know the withdrawal symptoms can suck but it's better on the other side.
But trump wants us isolated.....
Haley trying the Lindsey Graham approach to making her convictions as solid as water and just saying whatever is expedient for the moment.
... And oh look at that, both from SC.
Both Susan Rice and Samantha Power make her foreign policy experience look like a joke.
It's a threat. In the same way it's bad for your knees to not play ball with the mob.
"anti-trump republican, what a joke"
Oh, you silly dog killer…
You're thinking of Kristi Noem.
You're right. I can't keep them all straight unless they reach a sort of super-star level like DeSantis, MTG, and the orange man.
