Fred Fleitz: Ambassador Bolton, withdraw your book
Fox News ^ | Published 4 hours ago | Fred Fleitz | Fox News

It was crushing to read weekend press reports that my friend and former boss John Bolton plans to publish a tell-all book on his time as President Trump’s National Security Adviser. The book reportedly will be published in March 2020. Given the importance of protecting a president’s confidential discussions with his senior advisers, I strongly disagree with Bolton’s decision to release the book before the November presidential election and call on him to withdraw it from the publisher immediately.

He’s a backstabber. If he wasn’t he wouldn’t have written a book. When the “leak” came out he wouldn’t have confirmed it by saying “look someone leaked my manuscript that was in vetting”. He wouldn’t have used Comey’s publisher.

And last, if he wasn’t a backstabber, he would be on Hannity tonight saying Trump was awesome, a straight shooter, and he saw nothing wrong.

But he won’t.

You're right. He is totally silent. After the crap storm he creates, he gets on Twitter and this is what he writes...

Today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day & the 75th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau. #WeRemember the victims who perished during the Holocaust. Antisemitism is a threat not just to Jews but to society as a whole. We must fight it wherever we see it.— John Bolton (@AmbJohnBolton) January 27, 2020

Aye. The security of our nation is worth more than the greed and vanity of any anti-American political faction.

May he be forever known as “bargain bin Bolton” when his book sales flop.

Bolton is a small small small man.

Little Johnnie Bolton is a little Yale Law pimp who floated up from a sh*thole hood [Dundalk] in a sh*thole city [Baltimore MD] He has a classic little man's compulsion to start wars - so long as he has no risk of dying or being maimed. He just couldn't find time to enlist and fight in VietNam- he was too busy hiding out in some State Guard outfit. He is a gutless POS and a backstabber-a malignant man-like Iago-bereft of any motive because aside from his disastrous involvement with the idiot Bush - nobody wants him. Hey Bolton, you dwarfish pimp - go away.

Can’t remember the talk radio guy who said it a few days ago. He said ——I seriously doubt Bolton would make up a knife in the back Trump story to tell in the hearings. He would seal his fate and never have any leader trust him for a job ever again and would be branded a loser and a traitor by all. Revenge over losing his job under Trump wouldn’t be worth it-—the radio host said.

Hey they can always make room for him on CNN

Bolton is pro-abort, I believe I read (can someone confirm this?); should have never been appointed.

#2/ Yes. Even we lowly peasants farther down the classification chain have to sign a “form” of non-disclosure agreement. Nothing wrong with that. It is to protect confidential documents, discussions, strategies & tactics discussed/written down, privacy, etc.

M father-in-law, career military (combat, the Pacific, then National intelligence ops), never broke his non-disclosure agreements during his life. He was an officer and a gentleman, with 3 Purple Hearts (Iwo for at least one), and then an unsung hero of the Cold War (He might be featured in a new book that is coming out about the Cold War and US intell operations in West Berlin. I think the author didn’t get to interview him before he died and it wouldn’t have done him any good. My father-in-law knew how to keep his mouth shut and our secrets safe.

Different type of man and generation.

What important person would ever want to work with him again?
ZERO respect for confidentiality of high level sensitive decisionmaking

Wonder what the Dems have on him and how much they’ll pay him for the book?

Why on earth do you think that the Democrats would have to have dirt on Bolton for him to do this?
