Trump passed over his top choice for the #1 position because he was adamant about keeping McFarland in the #2 position and his #1 choice didn't want that?
I'm kind of surprised Bolton would accept a post like this, with the five-year limit on lobbying and all that. I get a sense that this Trump rule has scared a lot of political hacks away.

Yeah, and Harward walking in making demands shows he wasn’t the caliber of person needed. He showed no respect. Besides, I’m not sure what made Harward so awesome that he expected the administration to accommodate him in such ways.
