The two were part of the diplomatic corps of the former administration, but became critical of the newly elected president of the United States
The former president announced that he will not include former members of his administration Mike Pompeo and Nikki Haley in his future government. The statement was made through a post on his Truth Social platform. Both Pompeo, who served as secretary of state, and Haley, who served as US ambassador, became critical of Trump’s previous administration. Both tried to establish themselves as viable alternatives within the Republican Party, seeking support for their own candidacies.
Pompeo even considered the possibility of launching a pre-campaign for the presidency, but ended up abandoning this idea. In turn, Haley also sought the party’s nomination, but, after her attempts, she decided to support Trump instead of continuing her electoral run. Trump’s decision not to count Pompeo and Haley in his new administration reflects internal tensions within the Republican Party.
