Haley isn't harmed.

She's in New York, not the white house.

She became nationally famous reacting to a white racism event in South Carolina in exactly the opposite way of trump's atrocious "both sides" reaction to Charlottesville. 

I don't think people will hold her ambition in taking the U.N. job against her. 

She's definitely on the short list for possible first woman U.S. president. 

Ms. Haley is the child of immigrants and yet has no problem defending Trumps anti immigrant policies.  She is also against gay marriage.

As I recall, she was a popular governor, and her current post sort of shields her from direct involvement in most of the Trump related scandals and controversies. She does not make policy decisions, thus less accountable as well. If there will be a Trump administration meltdown, she may actually be in a good position if/when the GOP reasserts itself and do some house cleaning.

 

Yep. Think Pence / Haley.

Haley may think they should be heard.

But trump doesn't. 

Doing what he does when he's cornered -- LIE! DEFAME! INSULT! ATTACK!

Trump’s disgusting Kirsten Gillibrand tweet is just the beginning of the #MeToo backlash

But let’s not kid ourselves. We all know what he was saying. In so many words, the president basically just shouted “Whore!” at a U.S. senator.

Pence could be out if Trump falls, though. Depending on how much he's implicated in whatever. Haven't been following up on how popular Pence is, so could be wrong, but won't he be seen as sort of the "old guard" of the GOP as well?

I think whatever popularity Pence might enjoy only stems from the fact that "at least he isn't Trump". Democrats would have to once again field an absolutely awful candidate not to be able to take him out.
