Former U.S. national security adviser Susan Rice delivered a damning critique Thursday of Donald Trump and his foreign policy agenda for aiming to appease Russian President Vladimir Putin during the ongoing invasion of Ukraine.
“The fundamentals of national security — that America needs to be strong, that we need to stand with our allies, we need to stand for our values, we have to mean what we say … never used to be under serious question,” she told MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell.
“And along comes Donald Trump, who really is like the Neville Chamberlain of the Republican Party,” Rice continued. “He’s an appeaser. He’s a surrender monkey. And that’s what we’re seeing in his approach to Ukraine.”
Chamberlain exercised a policy of “appeasement” during his tenure as British prime minister in the years leading up to World War II, in a failed attempt to prevent Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler from expanding German control of Europe and waging war on the United Kingdom.
Trump has long been accused of having a curious relationship with Putin and recently refused to endorse a Ukrainian victory over Russia.

If you see Putin as an ally, and Trump clearly does, then wanting Putin to win isn’t really surrendering.

That’s a great statement, Trump is a surrender monkey! Yes.
Also we, the US must stand by our values. That means we have to have values, Xtian values don’t represent me! The MAGAt values do not represent the country!
