He took Bolton on to mollify a donor, that doesn’t mean he took Bolton’s advice. He obviously didn’t, they were at loggerheads over policy. Trump even came out and called Bolton a nutjob. So pretending that Bolton reflects Trump’s views is a disingenuous lie, typical of you neocons.
Even Dumbya ran out of patience with Bolton.
The point is he did something to mollify a donor. And it was a big deal something. Those who claim Trump can’t be influenced by donors can’t turn around and make excuses for him by saying he was just pleasing a donor.
I am hardly a neocon!!!
Here’s the problem. Trump chose a succession of neocons, Haley (total whacko), Pompeo, etc. Would DeSantis be any better when it comes to choosing a foreign policy team? We have yet to see. So far, it looks iffy.
