UN Ambassador Nikki Haley has slammed an unsigned letter criticizing President Trump.

The anonymous letter in The New York Times was supposedly written by an official in the White House.

Haley, a former Lexington resident, signed her own letter in The Washington Post.

She wrote that the anonymous writer is doing a disservice to the country.

Here’s what she wrote:

“I, too, am a senior Trump administration official.

“I proudly serve in this administration, and I enthusiastically support most of its decisions and the direction it is taking the country.”

“But I don’t agree with the president on everything. When there is disagreement, there is a right way and a wrong way to address it.

“I pick up the phone and call him or meet with him in person,” she wrote.

In the letter –“I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration” – the anonymous writer argued that White House staffers are “working to insulate their operations from his whims.” Trump’s “impulsiveness results in half-baked, ill-informed and occasionally reckless decisions that have to be walked back.”

The New York Times editor’s note claims to know the author’s identity but agreed not to reveal it because the person’s job would be jeopardized.

Haley wrote, “What this anonymous author is doing is very dangerous.

“He or she claims to be putting the country first, and that is the right goal.

“Everyone in government owes a greater loyalty to our country and our Constitution than to any individual officeholder. But a central part of our democracy requires that those who work directly for the President not secretly try to undermine him or his policies.

“As a former governor, I find it absolutely chilling to imagine that a high-ranking member of my team would secretly try to thwart my agenda. That is not the American way.

“It is fundamentally disloyal, not just to the chief executive, but to our country and our values.”
