>Ted is spot on. Bolton would be great.
I like Bolton, but he’s too Neo-conish for NSA. I’d like to see him at state in 3 or 4 years once T-Rex has gotten the place under control.
I don’t necessarily agree with these labels that some throw around. I just know Bolton seem to possess a lot of knowledge and common sense which is refreshing to me. Hopefully Trump will find a spot for him.

The positions Bolton took supported those of his boss. He was not the boss. We have to be pragmatic enough to cut him some slack because he never made policy - he implemented it as expected from a loyal soldier.
Just pointing out that all of us (myself included) have to take this into consideration when measuring Bolton. He has often departed from his prior reservation as a pundit. He has often mimicked their views.
