Eric Swalwell Clowns Nikki Haley With The Perfect Response Over Trump Decision

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) couldn’t help but laugh at former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley on Sunday over her thank you note to President-elect Donald Trump, who announced that she wouldn’t be part of his next administration.

“LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL…,” wrote Swalwell in a X post that continued for 12 more lines.

Trump took to his Truth Social platform Saturday to say he “very much enjoyed and appreciated” previously working with Haley as well as Mike Pompeo — both of whom served under Trump, the latter as his secretary of state. Still, he won’t invite them to serve with him this time around.

Trump also thanked Pompeo and Haley, whose birth name he mocked and whose husband he attacked earlier this year, “for their service to our Country.”

Haley, a harsh Trump critic during the GOP primaries who warned about the president-elect prior to endorsing his candidacy this summer, declared on social media this weekend that she was “proud” to have worked with Trump.

“I wish him, and all who serve, great success in moving us forward to a stronger, safer America over the next four years,” she wrote.

Pompeo, in a post to X on Sunday, similarly wrote that he was “proud” to have worked with the president-elect.

“As you said, when we were together last week, you and I built the plan that made the world safer & led to no new wars,” wrote Pompeo, who was considered a contender to be Trump’s secretary of defense.

“America firmly rejected the Biden-Harris foreign policy agenda. We have a duty to put America First again.”

Trump’s announcement arrived just one day after his ally Roger Stone took aim at Haley and Pompeo ― both of whom have supported U.S. aid to Ukraine — on his website.

“Several neocons have positioned themselves to get highly influential roles within the second Trump administration, and this sinister fifth column has the potential to be more harmful to Trump’s America First agenda than his leftist opinion within the Democrat Party,” Stone wrote.

He later continued, “Pompeo and Haley will be far from the only two infiltrators who attempt to worm their way back into Trump’s good graces and subvert his America First agenda in the administration for their own ends, but they stand as the three most egregious examples of the type of person who should be excluded in the administration.”
