Susan Rice Urges Donald Trump to ‘Tolerate Nuclear Weapons in North Korea’
2017-08-11
[BREITBART] Former President Barack Obama
I am not a dictator!...
’s National Security adviser, Susan Rice, wants President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
to accept North Korea as a nuclear power.

"History shows that we can, if we must, tolerate nuclear weapons in North Korea -- the same way we tolerated the far greater threat of thousands of Soviet nuclear weapons during the Cold War," she wrote in a New York Times
...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize...
op-ed, criticizing the president’s "fire and fury" rhetoric in response to the escalating tensions between the two countries.

Rice urged Gen. John Kelly, White House chief of staff, to stop Trump, and she pointedly attacked Dr. Sebastian Gorka, the deputy assistant to the president.

"John Kelly, Mr. Trump’s chief of staff, must assert control over the White House, including his boss, and curb the Trump surrogates whipping up Cuban missile crisis fears," she wrote.

Rice complained that Trump’s rhetoric was "unprecedented and especially dangerous" and that America would have to be cautious about its response to Pyongyang.

She defended Obama’s actions in response to North Korea, insisting that his administration put them "on edge" by conducting joint military exercises with South Korea and introducing more economic sanctions.

#14  "History shows that we can, if we must, tolerate nuclear weapons in North Korea -- the same way we tolerated the far greater threat of thousands of Soviet nuclear weapons during the Cold War,"

This is blatant revisionism.Soviet nukes could could be 'tolerated' under a policy of deterrence.

However during the Cold War the left had always rejected deterrence as a policy that is too dangerous and too immoral to be acceptable.

In principle, accommodation of, if not surrender to the Soviets was regarded as morally preferable.

#13  McMaster

A two-fer, get rid of the inconvenient Flynn and use the resultant confusion to insert your own man instead?

#12  She still has her security clearance: (McMaster) “I hereby waive the requirement that you must have a ‘need-to-know’ to access any classified information contained in items you 'originated, reviewed, signed or received while serving,' as National Security Adviser," the letter adds. This Shadow Government has got to go.

#11  Wonder if she would tolerate the NRA having nuclear weapons? (do I need to put a /sarc on that?)

#10  We know this woman lies. She's been caught doing it. The primary reason Susan Rice should keep quiet is that she has no credibility. If she says one thing it's a good bet we should do the other.

#9  So what should we do? Produce a youtube video about Kimmie?

The Liar of Benghazi must have known, along with Obama, that they had miniture nukes in '13.

#8  Starting to sound like they want a nuclear North Korea as part of the Obama legacy.

Or they know that it will be impossible to avoid blame if war occurs.

#6  I'd tolerate Susan Rice being chained at ground zero for a live re-enactment of the Trinity Event...

#5  Many ancient cities fell not because of the invader outside the wall, but because of intrigue inside to betray the gates.

Of course, when you have no real 'history' to adjudge by (as the other guys said) you tend to repeat mistakes.
