I used to be a fan. i really hate that I used to be a fan. I seriously misjudged Bolton, or I was seriously fooled. I prefer to think I was fooled. Anyway, I am done with John Bolton. He can go hang out with George W, Jeb, Colin Powell, Rove, and the rst of the neocon warmongers.
And besides that, Who the F does Bolton think he is that he knows more about the national interest than Trump does. Wasn’t Bolton one of the super smart people that got us into Iraq and Afganistan? Thousands of young American men have died there but we can never leave because that would make their sacrifice in vain.
Don’t feel bad. I think a lot of us misjudged Bolton.
It’s hard to understand his motivation. Just calling him a “warmonger” seems to merely scratch the surface.
Perhaps he’s a malignant narcissist and DJT rejected his counsel on too many occasions. Cut off a narcissist’s supply of high-octane ego fuel and bad things happen. Hence, he seeks revenge via the press.
Actually, I think the entire leadership of the RAT party is nothing but a collection of malignant narcissists.
Based on the research I’ve done about this mental affliction, counseling and therapy are almost useless in bringing narcissists back to reality. Basically, the road to sanity begins when the patient realizes he has a problem — and this is something narcissists will never do.
Unfortunately, me too.
If it is any consolation, a few nights ago I listened to talk show hosts John Batchelor and Sebastian Gorka, both smart guys who knew Bolton for a long time, express their mystification at what he had done. They seemed to think that Bolton had turned into a different person.
