Opinion| I have no idea what President Trump was thinking when he hired George Bush’s button man/neo-CON man, John Bolton as his National Security Advisor. The man has been known as a neoconservative for years now, and his role in the invasion of Iraq is a matter of history.
It’s time for Bolton to get what is coming to him, and that is justice, pure and simple. Whatever the truth may be, we need the world to know it. I have a feeling it is going to be devastating for Trump’s enemies …
Steven Ahle| Opinion| President Trump sat down with The Daily Caller and they discussed John Bolton. Trump said he knew that Bolton was a warmonger but hired him so he could hear both sides.
Then he alluded to two conversations he had with Bolton that convinced him that Bolton was a “dumb maniac who wants to go to war with any anybody that can breathe.” Bolton has owned that reputation over many years and Democrats better be careful about embracing him.
President Trump could turn it around on them and claim that since they disagree with him the must be for declaring war on Iran like Bolton. Jerry Nadler has been around congress a long time and he has already decided not to call him to testify.
President Trump then told about the two conversations with Bolton that convinced him he was dangerous. On occurred right after Bolton was on television and spoke about using the Libyan Model on North Korea:
TRUMP: He made a serious statement. I said, ‘now what does that mean, the Libyan model?’ To me, it means one thing. Gaddafi was taken over by a mob, dumped into a sewer, shot a hundred and twenty-eight times, and pissed on.
DAILY CALLER: After he was shot by a NATO aircraft.
TRUMP: Add that to it.
DAILY CALLER: What precipitated Gaddafi getting grabbed by the mob was NATO shooting him with a drone.
The second one was over support for the Iraq war:
“I said, ‘so going into the Middle East was that a good thing or a bad thing?’” Trump recounted to the Caller. “He said, ‘I think it was a good thing,’ I said, ‘you cannot be serious about that.’ It’s the most tragic mistake our country ever made.”
President Donald Trump told the Daily Caller about a series of conversations he had with former National Security Adviser John Bolton that made him realize Bolton was a “dumb maniac who wants to go to war with any anybody that can breathe.”
