Bolton was a fan of the Bush’s who hate President Trump. Also he’s a disgruntled employee after getting canned!

My observation: Bolton is a narcissist, having watched him on Fox in countless interviews. He loves the limelight. Ditto for Willard Romney.

Why or how that "need" is stronger than to protect the Republic, only a psychiatrist could say.

I’m looking forward to 2025 when “The Art of Draining the Swamp” comes out.

I doubt that Bolton says much about Ukraine in his book. It'll likely be more about moles in the Whitehouse and other ambassadors obstructing the President's policies.

We'll see.

I don't think he is really disgruntled. Look at the timeline. He was "fired" on September 10th. The aid was released on September 11th.

The President let him go to get him out of the web that was being spun to "catch" the President.

Again, not so fast. This is phrased carefully to look like more than it is.

(See picture of text)

“Preferred” being the key word here. In any case, the aid was sent on and there was no deal. No investigation. Trump sought materials they already had – not a new investigation.
Now the rest of the story and there’s less there than meets the eye.

Bolton’s appt to the UN was held up for weeks by the Democrats during the Bush administration due to sexual harassment claims. Where there’s smoke there’s often fire. I’m just saying.

The more we all talk about him, even in a negative vein, gets this guys rocks off. Delete him from conversation.

I can explain it. Neocons in DC will never be in a position to give him a job again. I think Bolton realizes his new democrat/media friends will drop him after impeachment so this is a last chance to make a buck. Problem for this a$$hole is the book comes out after impeachment when he is useless and meaningless. Anyway everyone will already know what’s in the book. He’ll sell even fewer books because of this stunt.

Anyone who walks around with his shaving brush stuck up his nose is most definitely screaming for attention.

Exactly. The old Bushie neocon whore is selling America out for 30 pieces of silver. He would love to take out Trump, and return the GOP to it’s rightful neocon owners. he would be quite happy with Pence.

“Bolton can never have a serious political/government job again,”

Sure he can. The neocon GOPe loves him. Anyone of the Bush wing would hire him in an instant. I think even Pence would be comfortable with him. He is far more GOPe than Trump. He has been silent through this whole mess. He didn’t even fore Jennifer Williams.

Bolton has lots of job prospects if he hurts Trump. And the SOB could kill all of this right now by going on Hannity and solidly saying Trump did nothing wrong and there was nothing improper he saw.

But he lets the kabuki dance go on.

My beloved husband advised me Bolton never met a war he didn’t like and he was such a Deep Stater it was actually scary.

Pres Trump didn’t have a deep bench of folks he could count on to assist him and had to take the word of folks as to who was good to work with...

...so many of those folks were themselves vile.

It’s not yet at all clear that Bolton’s book says what the NYT says it says. \

True.

But Bolten could speak up and address what was said in the NYT. It doesn't look like he's going to do that.
