Susan Rice: Trump's Attacks On Obama Are Sign Of His 'Extraordinary Insecurity'

Former national security adviser Susan Rice on Wednesday suggested why President Donald Trump frequently attempts to blame his predecessor, former President Barack Obama, for his own administration’s failings.

“I can only assume and infer that President Trump has some extraordinary insecurity in relation to Barack Obama,” Rice, who served in the Obama administration, told CNN’s Don Lemon.

“Everything that Obama stood for; decency, family values, unity, a country that stood tall and proud, not by dividing but by uniting, is the antithesis of who Donald Trump is,” she continued. “And he’s clearly threatened by it and he clearly likes to use Obama as a foil for all of his failures.”

Rice’s comments came as she debunked Trump’s oft-repeated claim that the Obama administration had failed to prepare for the country for the coronavirus pandemic that has now killed more than 73,000 people in the U.S. and sickened at least 1.2 million more.
