When asked if he was concerned that UN ambassador Nikki Haley was leaving shortly before the midterms, President Donald Trump said that there is “no good time” for her to leave, but that she did so “elegantly.”
“There really is no good time,” he said. “She told me about this a long time ago, and frankly it’s almost four weeks, so it’s not that bad. I don’t think so, I think it was very elegantly done.”
He added that had she waited until the midterms, her exit would have prompted speculation no matter the results of the election.

It’s clear that Trump (and other Republicans) have a boner for Nikki Haley. Unless “elegantly” is a new synonym for “abruptly.”
O for Christ’s sake.
Sailed off like a beauty pageant queen, blowing kisses and dropping compliments like rain.
She makes me long for the days of Condoleeza Rice. At least she was serious.
Keep using stereotypical language to describe what a prominent woman does, stable genius. Chicks dig being called “elegant.”
Elegance is very important. Not like stomping off and slamming doors behind you. We should bring back elegance.
If all the members of this administration will just line up to the right, yes, over here, and walk nicely through the double doors, smiling and waving, this can all be done in an afternoon. On the other side of the doors, please stay in the courtyard for afternoon tea and hearty handshakes all around.
