"Instead of saying that to me they should have been saying that to the president, not asking me to join them on their sidebar plan," Haley said.
"It should have been - go tell the president what your differences are and quit if you don't like what he's doing. But to undermine a president... it is really a very dangerous thing and it goes against the constitution, and it goes against what the American people want. It was offensive," she said further.
Furthernore, she also denounced the move to impeach the President saying impeachment is “like the death penalty for public officials".
Trump giving his approval for the book, urged readers to get their copy.
