Bolton Utterly Destroys Trump!!!

[Lazaran]

John Bolton utterly destroyed Trump in his ABC news interview, while at the same time destroying any faith Americans should have in republicans speaking up in a timely manner to expose the danger posed by this corrupt president.

Trump is an embarrassment.

Republicans are an embarrassment .

Someone needs to bring dignity and respect back to Washington.

Someone like Joe Biden.

John Bolton needs to be destroyed just as badly.

He will be destroyed when nobody buys his book. It seems like everybody except wonks are boycotting it. All the key information is already out there anyway.

John "War Monger" Bolton hates humanity.

Seeks its destruction.

He reportedly got a $2mil advance. I'd like to see the courts take that away from him as well, which might be possible, as he hasn't received formal clearance to publish.

True, while Trump seeks only his self preservation.

Two of the most miserable fucks that ever crawled on the face of the earth.

That would be poetic justice. Just so Trump doesn't see a penny of it. He shouldn't be allowed to profit from his betrayal of America anymore than he already has.

I’m eager to see how Bill O’Reilly’s book on Trump turns out.

The clearance procedure was rather extraordinary.
It went through the standard National Security clearance procedure, by career NSC personnel, some things were changed.

Then something unusual happened...AFTER it was cleared by the NSC, someone (I think it was AG Barr) decided it needed to be "cleared" by one of Trump's political appointees, and that's where the wheels fell off the bus. Anything remotely embarassing to Trump was ex post facto classified.

One credibly accused sexual predator writing a book about another credibly accused sexual predator???

I'll pass.

If Bolton has to spend a shit ton of money fighting in court, that would be even better.

Nothing would go to Trump. The objections are based on national security, not Trump's private life. Simon and Schuster would just get their original $2mil back, although the government could sue S&S for publishing without formal clearance in hand.

Trump knows far less about most subjects than he thinks he does. He goes by hiw he feels about things and his instincts have served him well.

It's hilarious to watch the circumlocutions of people who were horrified that he chose Bolton after they sandbagged a really good choice try to square the circle with decrying his refusal to take the advice of the warhawk that they were aghast he picked.

You have to decide. Were his instincts about discarding Bolton's advice correct? Of do, why are you listening to Bolton?

This is the guy that tried to start a war with nuclear-armed North Korea by threatening to take the same approach that Nobel Peace Price recipient Obama did with Gaddafi.

 

[KeithD]

Not in this lifetime. He's been a fuckup since childhood. He's lucky that his Trumpettes are even dumber than he is and easy marks for him.

It sounded like they were holding Bolton personally responsible. I don't care either way, as long as they're eating their own, it's all good.

As if to underscore his own lack of judgement and uselessness to Trump's agenda, Bolton just said he was going to vote for Biden in November.

 

[Ziggins]

Bonkers Bolton seems to have inflicted mental illness on himself by being a chickenhawk with a deeper level of belief in war. He has been carrying guilt from his 1970 draft dodge for 50 years.

 

[Bad_Egg]

Bolton did more harm to his rep than Pres. Trump's. His book is a bit....

if biden is your hero... you need new heroes.

Dignity and respect in relation to his name do not relate.

ETA, not Trump.
Need a none of the above choice.

To be fair to Bolton, whoever would be pulling Biden's strings or the one who would take over if Biden were to step down or be removed would be much more likely to get us into Obama-style conflicts than Trump would be.

All of the Bolton faction types tried like hell to get Trump entangled in various shooting conflicts with Iran, North Korea, or Syria for the enrichment of the military industrial complex and each time Trump refused.

Being a choice isn't ipso facto being a hero. Of course being a Trumpette is being a sucker.

What are Obama-style conflicts? Were you thinking that Obama was spelled B-U-S-H?

There's no evidence that Trump wouldn't go with all of those conflicts. It was the cooler heads around him, dangling shiny objects to distract him in other directions and pretty much just ignoring orders he's given that has saved Trump from getting into war in Iran, North Korea, Syria, Venezuela, and on and on and on--pretty much anywhere other than the countries that own him, Russia and Saudi Arabia.

It's critical to so thoroughly disgrace the 'Rump family name that none of them dare ever seek office again.

Given the you live in an alternative universe about who you really are and what little you have actually done in your life it's not at all surprising that you can't keep current with current events.

Libya? Syria? Yemen? Somalia? Pakistan? Not to mention being the first POTUS to order a drone strike on an American citizen.

These are the kindest puff-pieces you will find about Obama who was at war his entire presidency.

I think it was Lil'Vanky that 'schmoozed' her Daddy's anxieties with that special Daughterly lap sitting and whatever.
