"I have spent multiple times with the president at the White House and on the phone this past week, and his state of mind was very much focused on Syria, chemical weapons, getting the options that were there, making sure we were not doing anything to cause casualties of human life whether it was our allies or of the Syrian people," Haley told CBS News's Margaret Brennan on "Face the Nation."

"His focus was very much on making sure we knew all of the information so that we didn't make a misstep, and waiting it out to make sure if we were going to do this, we were going to do it right," she added.

Haley was asked during the appearance about Trump's state of mind. On Sunday morning, Trump unleashed a series of tweets aimed at former FBI Director James Comey James Brien ComeyDemocrats fear Russia interference could spoil bid to retake Senate Book: FBI sex crimes investigator helped trigger October 2016 public probe of Clinton emails Trump jabs at FBI director over testimony on Russia, antifa MORE, who has a new book coming out that makes a number of criticisms and personal attacks on the president.

The big questions in Comey’s badly reviewed book aren’t answered like, how come he gave up Classified Information (jail), why did he lie to Congress (jail), why did the DNC refuse to give Server to the FBI (why didn’t they TAKE it), why the phony memos, McCabe’s $700,000 & more? — Donald J.

Comey throws AG Lynch “under the bus!” Why can’t we all find out what happened on the tarmac in the back of the plane with Wild Bill and Lynch?

Trump has also tweeted in response to Monday's raid on his personal attorney Michael Cohen, which reports say has unnerved presidential advisers who see it as more worrisome than special counsel Robert Mueller Robert (Bob) MuellerCNN's Toobin warns McCabe is in 'perilous condition' with emboldened Trump CNN anchor rips Trump over Stone while evoking Clinton-Lynch tarmac meeting The Hill's 12:30 Report: New Hampshire fallout MORE's probe. Cohen is Trump's longtime lawyer and fixer, and the president on Monday called the raid a "disgrace" and an "attack on our country."

“It’s a real disgrace,” the president said. “It’s an attack on our country in a true sense. It’s an attack on what we all stand for.”

Haley avoided addressing the president's claim when asked by Brennan whether it was right to call the raid an attack on the country.

"First of all, I have been drowning in all things Syria, North Korea, and Iran, so I can't— I'm sorry, I don't have enough information on anything related to Comey or all of those things. I haven't watched TV to watch that. I have been very focused on foreign policy. I think the president's been focused on foreign policy in the meetings I have been in, so I can only talk about those issues," she said.
