She left the submit after then-President Trump named her United Nations Ambassador … and, it appears voters would relatively go along with the person who appointed her to the submit than their former gov.

Nikki’s had a really troublesome run as of late … changing into embroiled in controversy brought on by feedback she made about the Civil War whereas her opponent’s dominated each single major to date.
