On Friday, in part two of his interview with United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley, NBC Today co-host Matt Lauer worried about how President Trump was viewed by the international organization: “As you walk through the halls of the United Nations, does this president have credibility?”

Haley replied: “You know what he has? He has every single country guessing on what the United States is going to do. That has given me an incredible amount of leverage across the street.” Lauer fretted: “That sounds great for our adversaries, it doesn't sound great for our allies.” Haley countered: “Our allies know we're with them. Ask Israel, are we with them? Ask Ukraine if we’re with them.”
