Any guesses on what name Trump will 'christen' Nikki Haley with?

In order to kill the prophet, jealous Herodias bade her daughter, Salome, to dance for King Herod. The King was so entranced by her dance he offered to grant the girl any wish. At the request of her mother, she asked for the head of the Baptist, which was delivered to her on a platter.

(113,973 posts)would absolutely refuse. And in the context of a TFG usage, it would clearly be to send an abhorrent message of total misogyny. Still given the controversy incited by the sexual context decades ago, perhaps he wouldn't risk offending his supposed RW fundies. Still, the chance to direct such negative connotations on Haley might be more tempting than he could resist.
For those who don't have the memory, here's the video and lyrics (quite risqué at the time)
Song by Prince
I knew a girl named Nikki
I guess you could say she was a sex friend
I met her in a hotel lobby
Masturbating with a magazine
She said how'd you like to waste some time?
And I could not resist when I saw little Nikki grind
She took me to her castle
And I just couldn't believe my eyes
She had so many devices
Everything that money could buy
She said sign your name on the dotted line
The lights went out and Nikki started to grind
Ohh Nikki
The castle started spinning
Or maybe it was my brain
I can't tell you what she did to me
But my body will never be the same
Her lovin' will kick your behind
Oh, she'll show you no mercy
But she'll sho'nuff sho'nuff show you how to grind
Darlin' Nikki
Ohhhh
Woke up the next morning
Nikki wasn't there
I looked all over all I found
Was a phone number on the stairs
It said thank you for a funky time
Call me up whenever you want to grind
Oh, Nikki, ohhhh
Come back Nikki, come back
Your dirty little Prince
Wanna grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind
"Hello, how are you? I'm fine. 'cause I know
