Bolton holding a presser to inform us all of NORKS intentions is a bit stupid. Thirty years of nothing changes is not shocking news. Trump has proven more career lifelong political geniuses more often wrong than right, despite the deep state dogma. Being intelligence analy$t$ in D.C.pays a longer payout by being wrong.
The irony here of “deep state”, at least if you are referring to State Department, has been one of extreme appeasement and backing down at the last minute, being out negotiated by the Norks, appeasing, giving carrots in hope of stuff in return. We saw it in all administrations, particularly Clinton and the final two years of GWB oh don’t forget Obama. Steeped in illusion and naivete. That would be my definition.
Botlon’s just trying to make himself still feel useful.....speaking engagements are the usual route officials take to nurse their wounds. They want to explain or excuse or both.
“Bolton holding a presser to inform us all of NORKS intentions is a bit stupid.”
Nice misrepresentation.
