Preaching to the anti-Trump choir on CBS’ Late night “Stephen Colbert Show,” 55-year-old former Obama National Security Advisor Susan Rice said four more years of Trump would create an “unsalvageable” situation for U.S. foreign relations. Rice didn’t mention a thing about “unmasking” conversation between 62-year-old Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn and 69-year-old former Russian Amb. Sergey Kislyak, leading to Flynn’s FBI sting, that set him up in a perjury trap four days after Trump took office Jan. 24, 2017. Rice was part of the Obama administration’s spying campaign on 74-year-old President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign, where Obama’s White House used the nation’s national security apparatus to spy on the Trump campaign to help former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton get elected. Currently under investigation by 70-year-old Atty. Gen. William Barr, Rice should feel the heat.
Blasting Trump for his foreign policy couldn’t be more ironic since 58-year-old former President Barack Obama, former 77-year-old Vice President Joe Biden and Hillary spent billions of taxpayer dollars on a proxy war in Syria for eight years, costing 500,000 lives and displacing 15 million residents to neighboring countries and Europe in the worst humanitarian crisis since WW II. Rice blasts Trump for his foreign policy that’s done none of the damage that her foreign policy caused for eight years. “Our allies don’t know what to make of us,” Rice said, obliquely referring to Trump’s demands that NATO countries pay 2% of their GDPs for their own defense. “The president of the United States is a liar and the world knows it,” Rice said, putting a big smile on Colbert’s face. Rice doesn’t want to admit the foreign policy disasters under her watch, including toppling Libyan dictator Col. Muammar Gaddafi.
Toppling Gaddafi Oct. 20, 2011 spread terrorism throughout Libya and North Africa, causing anarchy in the region, eventually opening a terrorist attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi Sept. 11, 2012, killing 52-year-old Amb. Christopher Stevens and three other Americans. Rice watched Hillary take all the heat for Benghazi, hiding behind her national security job. Toppling Gaddafi was Obama, Biden, Hillary and Rice’s undeniable failure whether or not they ever accepted it. Hillary said at the time that the attack was due to an offensive viral video of desecration of a Koran, inflaming an uprising. But once the dust settled, it was clear in the wake of toppling Gaddafi, terrorists seized the chance to retaliate against the U.S. Yet Rice talks about Trump’s failures in foreign policy, something that continues her denials over the Obama administration’s foreign policy failures.
Rice continued to bash Trump’s approach to managing the deadly coronavirus outbreak that’s killed over 170,000 Americans. “I’m deeply, deeply concerned that if we had four more years of this, we would not be an America that anybody can recognize,” Rice said. Four more years of Obama’s foreign policy would have resulted in WW III. Hillary made clear in the 2016 campaign she backed “no-fly zones” in Syria would have increase the chance of the U.S. shooting down a Russian fighter jet. Hillary, with Rice by her side, was all about more U.S. Mideast military intervention. Rice was part of Obama’s foreign policy team that backed Syrian rebel groups, like the Free Syrian Army or Syrian Democratic Forces, all in on toppling Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s Damascus regime. Rice encouraged the U.S. proxy war in Syria even after Russian President Vladimir Putin joined the fight Sep. 30, 2015.
Rice didn’t mention a thing about attending an Oval Office briefing Jan. 5, 2017 with Obama, Biden, former FBI Director James Comey, former CIA Director John Brennan, former Deputy Atty. Gen. Sally Yates, former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, all discussing how they would set Flynn up at the White House for violating the arcane 1799 Logan Act for prosecuting civilians for conducting U.S. foreign policy. When Obama ousted 35 Russian diplomats Dec. 15, 2016, the incoming Trump transition was concerned about Russian President Vladimir Putin retaliating. “The situation would be unsalvageable, our national security and standing in the world irreparably damaged,” Rice told Colbert, mentioning nothing about Benghazi or wiretapping Flynn and other Trump campaign officials. Since taking office Jan. 20, 2017, Trump has sought to end foreign wars, not start them.
Slamming Trump for his foreign policy, Rice was radioactive enough for former 77-year-old Vice President and Democrat presumptive nominee Joe Biden to pass her by for a possible running mate. Rice hopes to get a Cabinet position in a Biden administration, now serves as a campaign attack dog blasting Trump on foreign policy. “It’s really a life or death situation we’re in,” Rice told Colbert. “It’s not too extreme to make, both domestically and internationally,” acknowledging nothing about her foreign policy failures during the Obama administration. Former First Lady Michelle Obama slammed Trump at the DNC vitural convention last night. She basically said Trump was not the right person to lead the nation in a time Covid-19 and race riots. Michelle said nothing when race riots broke out under her husbands watch in Ferguson, Mo. over the death of Michael Brown. No, Michelle insisted the country needs Joe, an architect of the Syrian and Libyan wars.
