Whatever you think of them its strange how Trump has a habit of picking people or letting people be picked who turn on him. At the very least it doesn’t seem like he is a very good judge of character.
Do you run a business? Hire and maintain a workforce?

Trump could have let the guy down gently by thanking him for his help and wishing him the best. Instead, he did something straight out of “The Apprentice”, saying “you’re fired”. So Bolton came right back at him. You make things personal with your employees, they might get personal right back at you. There’s a reason most dismissals tend to be couched in very neutral-sounding terms - nobody wants a disgruntled employee coming back with an arsenal and a backpack full of ammo.
Trump is who he is, warts and all. Our problem is that a sober guy like Mitt Romney is a stuffed shirt Judas who marches with Black Lives Matter and a major league gun grabber. Trump has charisma to spare, but also alienates a whole bunch of people who don’t like the drama or the presentation. At the same time, he is the only guy who’s prepared to stick his neck out on the cultural issues, such as statue removal. So we take the good with the bad, because Trump is the best option we have.
I’m not disappointed - politics mirrors life - you never get *everything* you want, even when the choice is in significant measure yours, such as a major appliance purchase or your career path. Why would we expect perfect outcomes when we are literally one out of thousands or tens of millions of votes?
This is what got me thinking more about it, and I've got a different perspective on it now. If even half the things Bolton claims in these book excerpts are true, Im now starting to think Trump hired him just to spend 18 months jerking his chain and making him look like a jackass. Seriously. LOL.
Other dumb ideas like Omarosa are just inexplicable though.
