Susan Rice: Trump-Zelensky Shouting Match Was a ‘Setup’
This is a modal window.
EXCERPT:
RICE: “Well, Nicolle, obviously it’s a very sad day and an embarrassment for the United States on the world stage. But let’s step back and analyze what’s happened here. I think there’s no question that this was a setup. You heard Donald Trump say at the end of that clip you played, this is great television. This was a setup. Vladimir — I mean, excuse me, Volodymyr Zelenskyy was compelled to agree to a horrible deal that would have sent Ukraine’s minerals to the United States without any concrete security guarantees. And yet, because he was trying to improve a relationship with Donald Trump, he came to Washington, he came to the Oval Office and sat down for a meeting hat in hand. Soon after he got there, the vice president of the United States lit into him and started a confrontation.”
