NIKKI TELLS IT – AT 10:08 A.M. ET: Nikki Haley is becoming perhaps the most important point person for the Trump administration. The president doesn't restrict her to comments about the United Nations, where she serves as our ambassador. From Daily Mail:
Nikki Haley was not impressed with the Grammy Awards' producers and their decision to have a number of recording artists and Hillary Clinton read excerpts from Michael Wolff's 'Fire and Fury.'
The United States Ambassador to the United Nations quickly took to Twitter after the segment aired on Sunday night, writing: 'I have always loved the Grammys but to have artists read the Fire and Fury book killed it. Don’t ruin great music with trash. Some of us love music without the politics thrown in it.'
Haley's complaint came almost three hours after the show opened with a performance from Kendrick Lamar that featured dancers in red hooded sweatshirts falling to the ground one-by-one as gunshots rang out.
It also came after former Fifth Harmony member Camila Cabello spoke out against President Trump's decision to deport Dreamers in an impassioned speech, which she delivered just moments after paying tribute to the #TimesUp movement by joining Ke$ha to sing her nominated song 'Praying.' It marked the second time in the past week that the normally reserved Haley had very publicly attacked Wolff, having previously hit out at the writer last week after comments he made caused some to believe she was having an affair with President Trump.
COMMENT: I have to believe that Nikki is being groomed to become secretary of state should Rex Tillerson decide to spend more time with his family. Either that or something higher. She'd be good at anything.
