She's TOAST: Nikki Haley tries patching things up with Trump after she crapped on him in January and he ain't havin' any of it

This editor used to adore Nikki Haley.

True story. Tough as nails, direct, fearless at the UN … but then she tried to save her own skin and dumped on Trump in January. And hey, we get it, a lot of people were jumping ship when the Left was working overtime to paint Trump as some sort of evil authoritarian inspiring an insurrection but trying to wiggle her way back in?

Yeah.

Not a great idea, Nikki.

Scoop: Nikki Haley tried to get a meeting with Trump yesterday but he turned her down, even despite her apparent attempt to patch things up through a @WSJ op-ed yesterday https://t.co/NpL9Duhunl

Did she really think he’d let her comments go? Let’s not pretend Trump doesn’t hold a grudge.

He does.

The snub comes on the heels of Tim Alberta’s deep dive in POLITICO Magazine last week on Haley’s presidential ambitions and how she’s trying to have it both ways with Trump.

Unfortunately, Nikki made her bed … now she gets to sleep in it.

Channeling George Costanza in mid-December, Haley refused to confront Trump over his election lies because he believed they were true. “I understand the president. I understand that genuinely, to his core, he believes he was wronged,” Haley said. “This is not him making it up.”

Oh, and in case you missed what she said about him that likely pissed him off:

After Jan. 6, Haley changed her tune.
“I think he’s going to find himself further and further isolated,” Haley said. “I think his business is suffering at this point. I think he’s lost any sort of political viability he was going to have. I think he’s lost his social media..”

‘I think he’s lost any sort of political viability.’

Yeah, not smart.

Haley tried to recover Thursday with a damage-control op-ed in the WSJ wrapped in blame-the-media rhetoric. But Trump, apparently, isn’t having it.

And of course, the left is turning on her as well.

So much for Nikki Haley have a good political instincts.

Maybe just stand fast in your convictions and stop trying to have it both ways?

Just sayin’.
