John Bolton says Vivek Ramaswamy reminds him of Trump and blasts both GOP candidates over their foreign policy acumen: 'They might as well be in kindergarten'
Business Insider ^ | 9.5.2023 | John Dorman

...."I think Ramaswamy reminds me an awful lot of Donald Trump," Bolton said in response to Ramaswamy expressing a need for facts in order to call Russian President Vladimir Putin a war criminal. "He has very firm opinions on subjects he knows absolutely nothing about and this was an example of it."

"The main point is that Ramaswamy has made other points about this war and about what he's going to do to try and solve it," Bolton said. "Like Trump said, he would put Zelenskyy and Putin in a room and have it solved in 24 hours. Ramaswamy is going to go to Moscow, convince Putin to break the alliance with China, and end the war that way."

"They may as well be in kindergarten talking about a very complex situation, but there's no mistake that Ramaswamy emulates Trump every time he can," he added.

....

In May, Bolton mocked the former president's belief that he is respected by world leaders.

"Trump has this impression that foreign leaders, especially adversaries, hold him in high regard — that he's got a good relationship with Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong Un," Bolton said of the leaders of China, Russia, and North Korea, respectively during a CNN interview.

"In fact, the exact opposite is true," he continued at the time. "I have been in those rooms with him when he met with those leaders. I believe they think he's a laughing fool and the idea that somehow his presence in office would have deterred Putin is flatly wrong."

Captain Soup-Strainer believes that any foreign policy that does not get us into a shooting war is a failure.

He is part of the military industrial complex. He has never seen a war he won’t join in.

I hate to say “I told you so,” but …

I had this guy Bolton pegged as a flaming duplicitous @sshole back when 95% of the folks on this website thought he was the Second Coming.

Ahh, and I’m old enough to remember when people in the Free Republic LOVED John Bolton.

Me too sigh. The forces of darkness have taken him. He sold his sole to money and now he is dead to the world.

Hey John, how do you like being hated by, well just about everyone on the planet. Shut you pie hole no one cares.

Here's the thing that can clarify your confusion. Truth is not eternal. It exists in the moment. And we each have our own Truth that should not be dominated by the Master Deep State Program attempting to rewrite Reality.

In other words, if there was a time in the past decade when threads filled with longing prayer for the appointment of Bolton to Def Sec, that was no less True. I've theorized we may have been patched into a separate Multiverse around Nov. 2020.

Biden stole $25-$50 Million in exchange for Foreign Policy positions, and like the other Republicans, they can’t seem to find a cross word to say about their buddy, Joey Two-Scoops.

Bolton’s problem is, and it is a crying shame:

BOLTON LOVES WAR!

It’s as simple as that. President Trump wanted to treat problems without loss of life and Bolton, the bellicose warmonger did NOT LIKE THAT...boo fREAKIN’ hoo.

He was in office and Putin didn’t make a move so...we should just ignore that? Of course not, Trump treated Putin(Russia) as a sovereign country with a rich history instead of calling him a thug and threatening to expand NATO and surprise surprise, region stabilized. Also worked in Korea. The neo cons (not so new anymore) and pathetic.

If John Bolton says that it’s true,

I automatically disbelieve it!

That’s weird because Bolton reminds me of Wile E. Coyote.
