Link to tweet
The president said earlier in the day that his daughter would be an incredible ambassador to the UN, but Id be accused of nepotism. She and her husband, Jared Kushner, are currently senior advisers to the president on the White House staff.
Im not sure theres anybody more competent, the president added.
Haley will leave her job as ambassador by the end of the year, the president said earlier in an announcement that surprised many in the White House including Chief of Staff John Kelly and Vice President Mike Pence.
The president said he is considering Goldman Sachs Group Inc.s Dina Powell as a potential replacement along with others. Another potential Haley successor is the U.S. ambassador to Germany, Ric Grenell, who quickly won Twitter endorsements from conservative broadcaster Hugh Hewitt and several Trump associates.
