Susan Rice rips Trump over McGurk tweet: ‘I can assure you’ Obama knows him well

Former national security adviser Susan Rice ripped President Trump late Saturday for declaring he doesn't know his top envoy in the fight against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS), saying that she "can assure you" former President Obama "knows him well." "The fact that you say you don’t know @brett_mcgurk speaks volumes about your commitment to fighting ISIS @realDonaldTrump. Why don’t you know the man who has done more than any civilian to degrade ISIS? I can assure you @BarackObama knows him well," tweeted Rice, who was Obama's national security adviser for most of his second term.
