Pelosi: Bolton put GOP — and greed — over country
The Hill ^ | 06 18 2020 | Mike Lillis

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday bashed John Bolton as a con artist, saying President Trump's former national security adviser — and now leading Trump critic — threw the country under the bus to sell a book.

Bolton's forthcoming exposé of his 17 months in the Trump White House, details of which were reported Wednesday, takes aim at Trump for being unfit to lead the country. But it also blames House Democrats for taking insufficient steps to remove the president from office.

Pelosi was quick to counter that House Democrats not only impeached Trump in December, but Bolton refused their requests that he testify in the trial stage of the impeachment process.

"President Trump is clearly ethically unfit and intellectually unprepared to be the president of the United States. That doesn't seem to matter to the Republicans in the United States Senate. It didn't seem to matter to John Bolton," Pelosi said during a press briefing in the Capitol.

"He chose loyalty over patriotism. And so he's going to make money off of his book, I guess."

“Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday bashed John Bolton as a con artist, saying President Trump’s former national security adviser — and now leading Trump critic — threw the country under the bus to sell a book.”

First sign of coherence that I’ve heard in her 40-plus years in Congress.

Sounds like Nancy is getting worried about what is really in it not matching up with the bullsh!# the press has been trying to tell us is in it...when the actaul book comes out.

If Bolton really wanted to sell a book it would have a more exciting and interesting title than “The Room Where it Happened,” which is blah, the most boring title that can be imagined.

For some strange reason it reminds me of the Situation Room when Obama was photographed to make it look like he was on top of the Benghazi attack.

That is what came to my mind as well....all republicans who hate Trump will be the main customers to buy Bolton’s book. Democrats hate Bolton and will not make him richer.
