It was odd to me that Trump chose to make it a joint public announcement months ahead of her departure date.
Then, when Haley gave a full-throated endorsement of President Trump and praised Jared and Ivanka, it occurred to me it might be really smart political strategy on the part of the administration.
I can imagine mid-term ads for Republican congresspersons featuring clips of Haley's remarks today. She's managed to maintain the support of establishment Republicans while gaining the respect of Trump Republicans.
And, the Republicans could really use the support of high-profile women who female voters generally seem to respect.
That's just my speculation.
