“Arabs envy our bikinis, booze and colleges.”

No they don’t.

And we can’t re-create the mid-west in the Middle East and we shouldn’t ever try, not even a little bit.

His hatred for the UN..? I loved that part of him.

So petty. Not the way to serve the President. Just take it like a man.

The results are the same, Bolton is on the street, Trump is the President.

I usually liked Bolton, but he was a little full of himself.

Next.

Bolton offered to resign...and Trump told him let's talk about it tomorrow?

Doesn't sound like Trump.

Oh please the liberal media is just trying to make it into a big issue about exactly how Bolton was dismissed. Because of the disagreements it was very normal for Bolton to offer his resignation and whether it’s really a resignation or a firing is one of those things no one can really answer. I think the resignation is offered as a formality and when the president accepts it, then it’s sort of a firing.

Anyone who didn’t see this coming is blind. I can’t see President Trump saying “Let’s talk about this tomorrow”. They have been going head to head for months.

Freshly out the door and he’s already challenging Trump’s ‘recollection of the facts’. Good riddance to the Bush era walrus.

Why would anyone sane go work in this administration? Or insane, in Bolton’s case.

I believe this is being done to curry favor with the Norks. They hate Bolton. If the story is true, Trump should not have fired Bolton and let him resign. This stinks.

Mr President, I am not serving you well and hereby resign

Mr Bolton, Please tender your resigantion in writing

Bolton resigned. The President asked for the resignation in writing

Both were correct

No dissention

Bolton is just not the man for the times. Trump is trying to disentangle not get into more war. Attacking Iran is just a crappy idea. Boltons first knee jerk on everything is attack. Trump is a negotiator.

Resigned, or fired? It probably makes a little bit of difference in the resume, but the effect on the overall picture is unchanged.

Might be the best job John Bolton was ever fired from. This way, he is now entirely free to speak with no regard for future consequences. What’s the worst that could happen? He is not going to be assassinated or executed by the Trump Administration, and he may even be recruited for some other organization related to, but outside the sphere of the Federal Government.

Taking a swipe at Trump on his way out the door. Classy. </sarcasm>

Do we know why he offered to resign last night?

Do we know why Trump told Bolton last night his services were no longer needed?

What event precipitated this?

Why would Bolton OFFER TO RESIGN.

Seems he thought he was in trouble. Why else would someone do that?

So it sounds like Bolton offered his resignation, only to be effective if Trump decided he wanted Bolton out. Trump thought about it overnight and accepted it in the morning.

Still Pompeo and Elliot Abrams and God knows who else in there to go.

I wonder if Trump saw this segment on Tucker Carlson’s show between last night and this morning:

WTF is going on in Washington

Have really admired John Bolton for decades and was very happy to see him join the Trump Administration.

Also very much approve of President Trumps handling of foreign affairs so far and feel that his approach is generally in line with the approach favored by John Bolton so they both should be on the same page - except that Bolton is more in favor of use of military power and Trump is more in favor of exercise of economic power.
