Trump rules out Haley, Pompeo admin posts

President-elect Trump said Saturday that two of his former officials, Nikki Haley and Mike Pompeo, would not be asked to join his second administration.

There is plenty of water under the bridge between Haley, Trump's former UN ambassador, and the president-elect after they clashed during the GOP primary. Though she ultimately endorsed Trump, she rebuked him on the campaign trail as "unhinged" and "toxic."

• Trump had previously said Haley would be on his team in "some form" after she vowed to vote for him.
• There was even speculation she could serve as the president-elect's running mate — an idea Trump quickly quashed in May.

Driving the news: "I will not be inviting former Ambassador Nikki Haley, or former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, to join the Trump Administration, which is currently in formation," Trump wrote on Truth Social Saturday.

• He continued, "I very much enjoyed and appreciated working with them previously, and would like to thank them for their service to our Country."
