Former President Barack Obama’s National Security adviser, Susan Rice, wants President Donald Trump 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 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.
She urged Trump to continue the Obama doctrine on North Korea despite growing hostility from the country.
“Rational, steady American leadership can avoid a crisis and counter a growing North Korean threat,” Rice wrote. “It’s past time that the United States started exercising its power responsibly"

Pay the protection money and move on ? Obama’s unmarked planes are standing by ,just load them with cash ,LOL
As I recall the Soviets weren't led by an insane, not too bright, dictator for life who threatened to nuke us every other week.
The Obama Doctrine:
Tolerate everyone having nuclear weapons.
Seems Rice is more of a progressive than I previously thought her to be.
Why is this felony-committing b*tch still walking around free???!?
Well what can we say to that amazing geopolitical crap?
What does her buddy McMaster think of Susan Rice’s comment?
The left instinctively sides with evil.
Can’t these deposed a**holes shut up? If ever there was anyone who has no business commenting on foreign policy, it’s the woman who lied to the American people on five Sunday news shows about what happened in Benghazi. And we’d still like to hear McMaster’s reason for allowing this terrible liability a security clearance.
Out her f..n mind. Like her boss.
Susan, your ignorant approach to foreign relations has been rejected and replaced.
Shut up.
Someone needs to tell this person she is now irrelevant.....
Obama doctrine?? You mean appeasement?
What this means is that the Clintons, Obama, and their ilk want these rogue nations to have nuclear capacity as a check to American power.
That’s been their goal all along, with the Clinton North Korea deal, and the Obama Iran deal.
It’s sick!
This bitch let people die in Benghazi and lied to all of us on TV. Then she was promoted and continues to commit treason via our military. I don’t know why Trump hasn’t put her in Prison yet. I guess he deserves what he gets.
The left wants communist dictatorships to grow stronger. They hate this country. Proof.
You can even send them money.
‘Tolerate Nuclear Weapons in North Korea’
How many, and at what incoming trajectories?
