Susan Rice: Trump’s Global Policy Serves Putin’s Interest in Dividing the West

RUSH EXCERPT:

RICE: "Well, George, gosh. Good morning. I think what Tom is ignoring with all due respect is the fact that the sanctions that the president and the administration have imposed on Russia only came as a result of a congressional mandate that required him to do so. The president has cast doubt repeatedly including this week on the legitimacy of the unanimous intelligence community finding that Russia directly interfered in our elections. He has undermined NATO, called the European Union a foe. He has imposed harsh tariffs on our closest allies and withdrawn us from the trans-pacific partnership agreement. He has taken a series of steps that had slatd peer Putin dictated him, he couldn’t have mirrored more effectively. This is a legitimate question, one that I think is being investiga investigated. But these have served Vladimir Putin in the west, undermining democracy, increasing fissures."
