Yesterday, UN Ambassador Nikki Haley announced that more sanctions would be coming against Russia for their support of Syria in its chemical weapons attacks against civilians.
Today, President Trump reversed them following complaints from The Kremlin. With regard to sanctions, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders stated, "We’re evaluating, but nothing to announce right now."
I guess this means when Vladimir Putin says jump, President Trump says how high.
This completely undermines Haley's authority. How can we take anything she says seriously again? If she makes an announcement, the press can legitimately ask her if she got Trump's permission first.
If I were Nikki Haley I would be planning my exit strategy yesterday.
