Former national security adviser Susan Rice slammed the Trump
administration as “racist to its core” and said that supportive senators
belong in the “trash heap of history.”
“I'd say better late than never. You know, to serve an administration which has been racist to its core for the last three and a half years, from comparing the peaceful protesters at Charlottesville to white supremacists, calling white supremacists very fine people, all the way through to the recent weeks where the administration has disparaged the Black Lives Matter movement, disparaged the peaceful protesters, and basically made plain that they prefer to stand by a Confederate legacy than a modern America, it's been an administration whose record on race is just disgraceful,”
Rice said on MSNBC regarding the resignation of Secretary of State for Legislative Affairs Mary Elizabeth Taylor, the Trump administration’s highest ranking female African American official.
Rice also praised Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) for withdrawing her name from consideration to be former Vice President Joe Biden’s running mate and calling for him to tap a woman of color.
