Rand Paul threatens to block Bolton nomination
EXCERPT:
Sen. Rand Paul is threatening to block President-elect Donald Trump’s likely pick of John Bolton as the No. 2 in the State Department.
The Kentucky Republican, who serves on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, could stop the hawkish former ambassador to the United Nations from getting out of committee if there is unanimous Democratic resistance. The committee is narrowly divided among 10 Republicans and nine Democrats, and Paul said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that he’s an “automatic no on Bolton.”

I like Bolton but I did expect him to be a lot more like Trump than he was when he was Amb to UN
Rand Paul is right about Bolton. A country with $20 Trillion national debt has no business starting foreign wars. But then every super power in history met it’s demise by going in debt with foreign adventures. History repeats again and again.
Rand Paul has many interesting things to say. That said, he essentially doesn’t believe in foreign policy. It is hardly surprising that he would have differences with anyone who does.
