A consensus emerged Tuesday at the White House and Mar-a-Lago about how to clean up the administration's suddenly muddled plans to crack down on Russia: Blame Nikki Haley.
Several administration officials said the US ambassador to the United Nations got ahead of President Donald Trump's decision-making when she hit the Sunday talk show circuit and said the US would level new sanctions the next day targeting Russian companies that facilitated the Syrian regime's chemical weapons program. The sanctions have yet to come.
"She got ahead of the curve," National Economic Council Director Larry Kudlow told reporters on Tuesday near the President's Florida estate, a day after a report claiming Trump "put the brakes" on plans for new Russia sanctions. "She's done a great job, she's a very effective ambassador. There might have been some momentary confusion about that."
Haley struck back with a stunning statement later in the day that opened a new rift in the administration and raised questions about the White House's explanation of her comments.
"With all due respect, I don't get confused," she said in a statement obtained by CNN's Jake Tapper.
A White House official said Kudlow apologized to Haley for saying that she might have been confused.
But he wasn't alone in that sentiment. A day earlier, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders responded to reports about Haley's comments by saying the administration was "considering additional sanctions on Russia," but that a decision hadn't yet been made.
Separately, two senior administration officials told CNN Tuesday that the President had not signed off on the new sanctions by the time Haley made her comments on two news programs Sunday and said Haley must have walked away from a Friday White House meeting about the sanctions having misunderstood how firm the plans were.
Haley's statement Tuesday evening suggested she was in sync with the administration's plans during her Sunday show appearances.

With all her pride, I hope she decides to quit. Calling your UN rep a liar is an insult.
She was disrespected by Trump and his Male counterparts, as a matter of fact Nikki Haley is the last of the educated that Trump has remaining. She was offered Secretary of State but declined due to family commitment .
The wannabee white lady

lying is her job that's all she does
Nikki is much more resilient than her male counterparts. Indian women know how to suck it up, Tek licks, and keep on marching.

What nit you want to pick about her, She is a proud Indian, she used the Gita to swear in, she is an American married to a White American. She holds a job where few women has ever achieved. Trump cannot afford to let her go, she is an asset to the administration, you better check her qualifications, she is not a Black life matter product.

Then why does she deny . . .
and what exactly does âBlack life matter (sic)â have to do with Madame Nimrata?

for some unfathomable reason, Nikki Haley mistakenly assumed she was playing for the first team at Donald Trumpâs club

Nikki Haley tries to do her job as best she can given the stupidness of her boss. I am sure Trump agreed with her before she spoke on Sunday because he always agree with the last person he speaks to. Then he heard that Putin wasnât pleased with what Haley said and he backtracked. The White House should have said that Putin made him backtrack. Instead they tried to make Haley the fall gal but to her credit, she immediately put them on notice not to dabb their shit on her. I give her credit for that.

Ow mi Gaad! Is duh wuh happen pon you all deeze years?
In all honesty, she comes across much more hawkish than Trump on Russia and may have got ahead of Trump on this.
She has her sights on 2024 or even 2020 if trump is out.
