Former White House national security adviser John Bolton reportedly claims in his forthcoming memoir that President Trump called for scumbag journalists to be “executed.”

Bolton said Trump made the comments during a meeting last summer in New Jersey, according to a copy of Bolton's book obtained by The Washington Post.

During the meeting, Trump said journalists should be jailed so they would have to expose their sources, Bolton wrote.

“These people should be executed. They are scumbags,” Trump said, according to Bolton's account chronicled in the memoir, “The Room Where It Happened.”

“These people should be executed. They are scumbags,”

Who could argue with that?

Bolton really is a money grubbing SCUMBAG!

He was done when Trump hired him. He turned out to be very ungrateful for his second chance.

And I am hard pressed to identify any signifcant Bolton decision during his tenure that wasn’t driven by SELF-SERVING calculations!

a book which resonates with FakeNewsMSM alone.

if today’s headline allegations are Bolton’s best, the book should be on the clearance table the day it is published.

'Those scumbag journalists should be executed'

What president hasn't uttered similar sentiments?

Trump is the only president cursed by Gossiping Karens.

Bolton won’t work in DC ever again. What a dolt old bolt is.


He’s 71 and feathering his nest. Most of the corporate rubber chicken circuit hates POTUS every bit as much as Bolton does. He will be in demand for a bit to speak to them.
