Former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley says an isolationist policy isn’t “healthy” as she called on the Republican party to stand with her country’s allies during a visit to Taiwan.

Former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley, on a visit to Taiwan Saturday said an isolationist policy isn’t “healthy” and called on the Republican Party to stand with her country’s allies, while still putting in good words for the party’s nominee, Donald Trump.

Haley, who ran against Trump for the Republican presidential nomination, told reporters in the capital, Taipei, that supporting U.S. allies, including Ukraine and Israel, is vital, and she underscored the importance of Taiwan — which Beijing claims as its territory, to be brought under control by force if necessary.

“I don’t think the isolationist approach is healthy. I think America can never sit in a bubble and think that we won’t be affected,” she said.

    The cognitive dissonance is real. How this silly twit can say “isolationism is bad” and “Trump good” in the same breath is truly astounding.

    Trump worked toward isolationism like nobody in the last century and if he gets in again, Project 2025 puppetmasters will take that up by an order of magnitude as they create a new Sharia law environment and distance the rest of the world even further.

      How this silly twit can say “isolationism is bad” and “Trump good” in the same breath is truly astounding.

      Trump isn’t isolationist, he just endorses a different distribution of geopolitical allies than Biden and the Democrats.

      Stop fighting Russia, start fighting China.

        Do you even know what Sharia Law is?

        The biggest problem Americans have about Sharia Law are the prohibitions on ushery.

        It was a dig at the same people calling for “Christian law” that would vehemently decry “Islamic law”, you donkey.

            I’m sure you’re totally right and I meant that as islamophobia and not a shot at Christians.

            After all, you’re always right about what you think other people think, right?

            Piss off. I despise the misogyny and human rights abuses of both religions equally.
