Bolton: Trump ‘Has Simple-Minded Ideas About How the World Works’
Breitbart ^ | 04/10/2024 | Pam Key

Posted on 04/10/2024 4:17:46 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Former National Security Adviser John Bolton said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that former President Donald Trump had “simple-minded ideas about how the world works.”

Bolton said, “I think it’s important to understand, and this is especially important for Trump critics to understand, he doesn’t have a philosophy. He doesn’t think in policy terms, as that’s conventionally understood in Washington. He thinks in anecdotal, ad hoc, transactional terms, seeing through the prism of how does this benefit Donald Trump.”

“Bolton: Trump ‘Has Simple-Minded Ideas About How the World Works’”

Trump’s common sense policies are simple, tried and true.

Well, we've had about 60 years of Washington thinking....maybe time for something a little different.

The people who obsess over “nuance” are the ones that screw everything up.

Focus on the main stuff. The main stuff is always simple.

First Brennan today, now Bolton. Apparently the bomb sights are close to being over a target they are quite worried about. Time to open the doors and go weapons hot. Let em drop.

That is what almost EVERYBODY said about Reagan. For a rookie politician starting at the top, four years with no new wars, and no international humiliations was pretty damn good for a simpleton.

Reagan's simplicity served the USA and the world at large very well.

What they never get is that Trump understands that what is good for America is good for Trump.

Oh, yeah? Well I kind of like simple. Like using our own resources, and we have a lot. Simple. Manufacturing our own pharmaceuticals,, our own appliances, food, etc., etc. Simple.

That’s because how the world works is based on a simple reality - every one and every country seeks to promote their self interests. Start with that and everything follows.

It’s that simple!
