Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) expressed disappointment over the news of National Security Advisor John Bolton’s firing, calling the outgoing senior White House official “brilliant” and suggested his reinstatement.

“I’m very, very unhappy to hear that he is leaving. It’s a huge loss for the administration and for the nation,” Romney told reporters on Tuesday.

Asked about a possible replacement, Romney suggests “John Bolton”

I liked John Bolton and never considered him a neo-con. He was just a warhawk in the tradition of the ww2 generation. Just because you believe in slapping people back doesn’t make you a neo-con. Neo-cons are liberals in areas other than national security.

I think Bolton crossed the line from presenting his boss his point of view over into strong advocacy and manipulation to get his way. Even after Trump made a decision.

Tell the commander your viewpoint, but after a decision is made help him implement it

Check out the link I posted in #19.

Forget about Mitt Romney. Samantha Power has come out and publicly criticized the firing of Bolton. This woman is a f#%&ing communist.

Samantha Power

Oh well then! If Mitt wants him reinstated, I sure as shootin’ hope President Trump throws himself at Bolton’s feet, begging forgiveness and asking him to please come back.

Honestly, Mitt must have a HUGE opinion of himself to think that anyone cares what he thinks, let alone follow his instructions!

Considering who's against it, it was a great move by Trump!

The US has been at war continuously for more years than the Civil War, the Spanish-American War, World War 1, World War 2 and the Korean War combined, and that's not long enough?

Maybe not long enough for The Swamp but I think it's been long enough for Middle America.

I’m very very unhappy that John McCain has ever gotten a Republican nomination.

I really, really hate Mitt’s guts, but in this case, I’ll have to agree with him.

Ol' Mitt will need to resort to the strongly-worded-letter, perhaps with the occasional mis-used prepositional phrase to emphasize exactly how very, very exasperated he is.

"Where DID that congressional page run off too?"

Is this a joke? Romney is out of his mind with dreams of self importance.

That’s not a coherent way of thinking. There is another thread showing Representative Omar cheering Bolton’s firing. If you only go by associations then it would be you siding with Omar.

Bolton is a bit of a warmonger, but the peacemongers don’t have that good track record either. What if Clinton had nipped Taliban in the bud in 1995, when they were still small? Perhaps no 9/11?

Bolton was probably leaking to Romney.

It eats him alive that he threw the election to Obama.
