John Bolton accuses White House of 'censorship' over forthcoming memoir
Washington Examiner ^ | February 17, 2020 | Rob Crilly

Speaking onstage to Peter Feaver, professor of political science at Duke, Bolton, by his own admission, “ducked” questions about his instructions from Trump. He said the administration’s prepublication review meant that he could not discuss details for fear of legal action.

“I say things in the manuscript about what he said to me. I hope they become public someday,” he said. “He tweets, but I can’t talk about it. How fair is that?”

re: Bolton host Prof Peter Feaver:
Is President Trump mentally unfit? Locally, Duke political science professor Peter Feaver, in the mid-2000s a national security aide to former President George W. Bush, signed a statement last year that labeled Trump “a distinct threat to civil liberty in the United States.”

John, go _ yourself.

If it comes to backing you or this president, you’re about 0.00001% to win with me.

How ‘fair’ is it that Trump can tweet on a topic, and John Bolton has to keep his mouth shut about it?
Well, Mr. Bolton, it’s like this....Trump is president and you......are not. Certain privileges do come with that office. We Deplorables are all hoping that you understand!
Could you postpone releasing your book until say, January of 2021? I do think the president would agree to that.

Let’s see if Bolton will show his face on Hannity or Breitbart again. I doubt it.

Anyone still think witnesses in the Senate Trial would have been a good thing? Or that Bolton is a patriot? He is still looking to damage Trump and his election prospects.

The interviewer zinged Bolton a couple times according to twitter. Democrats still hate Bolton. Amusing to see them trashing him on twitter.

They had 18 witnesses that testified. A few more wouldn’t make any difference.

And Bolton doesn’t seem to be able to understand that an advisor to the President can’t tell everyone what he advised him about. Weird, right?

Now both sides hate Bolton. I see him as one of the many ( politicians and pundits) who think they are smarter than PDJT. I always thought that he was a terrible appointment.

Yeah, sure. A bright shining light on the coockroach coupists is never a bad thing. Now going on five months and we’ve got exactly nothing from the GOP Senate regarding the CIA backed hoaxblower impeachment.

Those men who have tried to climb that ladder of success and didn’t get high enough yet.... they do not like Trump for at least one reason... everything Trump does is a success … yesterday at the race... it was a whopper of a success... big time show time... and they can’t stand it... another big do for Trump and they can’t stand it. He’s President and they can’t stand it... he can fill a stadium and overflow.. and they can’t stand it... he has a loyal following big enough to give him another 4 years.. and they can’t stand it!! His charisma … they can’t stand it....

They don’t measure up... and they can’t stand it!

The neocon elitists Bolton really cares about think he is a hero now. He doesn’t care about Democrats and just used Trump voters to bum a job from POTUS. I expect he’ll still find a home on Fox News after this is done.

Bolton was suppose to clean out the swamp creatures, instead he promoted them and let them try to impeach the president

Screw off Bolton

You are the Mitt Romney of the NSC, go #$%# yourself

This Rob O’Brien guy is doing exactly what you were suppose to do Johny do little. All Johny wanted to do was start wars so he and his backers can get rich on war supplies.

No kidding! I guess Bolton never worked anywhere that required you to keep you mouth shut about what you know.

Doesn't Bolton realize a security clearance also requires you to keep your mouth shut?
