I heard that McMaster was picked first because of clandestine military operations. Now that those have been completed, it’s time for tough diplomacy - enter Bolton.

Kind of like Trump changing out campaign managers at different stages of the election season: different people with different skill sets for different parts of the MAGA agenda...

Don’t know if it’s true - but I like to think so!

...

I’ve said this before. Trump has a long history of using specialists.

I voted for Trump.

I am very pleased with Trump’s choice of Bolton.

I only wonder why Trump waited this long to appoint Bolton.

Should have been done a year earlier.

Question for you, Alberta’s child,

Would you prefer Hillary Clinton or John Kerry to Bolton?

Or Susan Rice or Samantha Power?

Neither did Ambassador Bolton.

Was he a voice of reason in 1999 when he was calling for U.S. military intervention in Kosovo on behalf of the radical Islamic insurgency there?

Why do so many globalist Freepers post the same nonsensical sh!t on these Bolton threads? Is it possible for someone to despise EVERY person you named in your last post?

Who was the moron who came up with this notion that Susan Rice, Samantha Power and John Bolton are the only three options for a senior post in the U.S. government involving foreign affairs or national security?

You may want to do some research on the subject before you post that.

I totally disagree with your assessment of Bolton.

He’s anything but a Swamp denizen - don’t believe me, watch and listen to the collective gasps heard in the swampiest neighborhoods!

Most important of all to me is that Bolton has the same opinion of both the State Department and the current iteration of our so-called intelligences!

Hopefully, he’ll bring on the quick exit of Sec. Def. Mad Pussy Cat Mattis (and let him take all his trannie lovers with him!)

Alberta’s child sounds like Barbara Boxer, assuming the pose of the ‘educator’ of others.

Especially one like Bolton (and Nikki Haley) who don’t fear the MSM.

I like what he said in 2008.

My assessment of Bolton is based on his own track record — for better or for worse.

The guy is either an 'effing idiot, or a paid shill who changes his tune depending on who is paying his salary at any given time.

Kosovo's independence was only possible because the U.S. toppled the Milosevic government in Serbia in 1999. Bolton himself was a strong public advocate of this.

I voted for Donald Trump to keep @ssholes like this out of government.

I voted for Trump, too. I'll vote for him again.

But hiring senior people like Bolton who would have been prime candidates for cabinet posts in a Jeb Bush administration sure doesn't inspire a lot of confidence from me.

LOL. Good one. That’ll leave a mark.

And you suggest who for NSA? Michael Savage? Chomsky? Give us a few names before dumping on a solid America First pick like Bolton.

President Trump doesn't need anyone from the list of names on this document polluting his administration:

Mr. President, Milosevic Is The Problem

Also note Post #5 in this old FR thread from 2009. The link there is dead because the people who had been running the "Project for the New American Century" have scrubbed most of their globalist bullsh!t from the internet over the years, but there's no mistaking what kind of man John Bolton is:

The Mullahs Must Go (Bolton)

This guy has been engaged in an endless war-mongering campaign for years.
