WHY OBAMA'S CORRUPT INNER CIRCLE Is Desperately Fighting To Protect His Failed Reputation
[100PercentFedUp] "History shows that we can, if we must, tolerate nuclear weapons in North Korea."Those words were written by former National Security Adviser Susan Rice on Thursday in the New York Times, in arguing for appeasement towards Kim Jong-un. It was also the perfect symbol of everything that was wrong with Barack Obama’s feckless foreign policy ‐ and it explains why the world that President Donald Trump inherited is so dangerous and unstable. The Obama administration believed it was worth living in the shadow of terror and nuclear aggression as long as the U.S. could maintain a dignified posture that could not provoke anyone. ‐Breitbart Noah Rothman of Commentary Magazine wrote a brilliant article about the "death rattle of Obama’s reputation". In his article, Rothman reminds us of the ineffective and dangerous path former President Barack Obama took our nation down, and why the successes of President Trump are forcing his corrupt inner circle to speak out against Trump in defense of Obama’s failed legacy.  The members of Barack Obama’s administration in exile have become conspicuously noisy of late‐even more so than usual. Former CIA Director John Brennan accused Donald Trump and his administration of engaging in "outrageous," "narcissistic" behavior typical of "vengeful autocrats" by threatening proportionate retaliation against countries that voted to condemn the United States in the United Nations, as though that were unprecedented. It is not. James Clapper, Obama’s director of national intelligence, all but alleged that the president is a Russian "asset." Perhaps the most acerbic and incendiary series of accusations from the former Democratic president’s foreign-policy professionals were placed in the New York Times by Obama’s national security advisor, Susan Rice. In her estimation, America has abdicated its role as a "force for good." It’s no coincidence that these overheated condemnations accompany abundant evidence that the Trump administration is finding its legs. As the last administration’s undeserved reputation as sober-minded foreign policy rationalists is dismantled one retrospective report at a time, its jilted members are lashing out. Continues.
