Nikki Haley exits Boeing board, saying she opposes US bailout

Former UN ambassador Nikki Haley resigned from Boeing's board of directors, saying she was philosophically opposed to efforts to win a government bailout, the firm said Thursday.

Haley, a former governor of South Carolina, said she had hoped "to be part of helping" Boeing as it contends with the coronavirus crisis on top of the travails with the 737 MAX.

But Boeing's leaders and board "are going in a direction I cannot support," Haley said in a resignation later included in a Boeing securities filing.

"While I know cash is tight, that is equally true for numerous other industries and for millions of small businesses," she said, adding that she has "long held strong convictions" against

No way she ties her wagon to trump. And the religious nut hate her. While Christian she still honors the Hindu celebrations of her family.

Even worse, she took down the confed flag from the SC statehouse. The hard core republican southern neo-confederates, and there are lots of them, hate her. And their zen diagram totally overlaps the religious nuts.

But by lying making suggestions he wants to go big claim he shows he's lying and really wants to go cheap. Haley is saying this now for a reason. Trump is trying to do us like he does to contractors and stiff on these payouts.
