They may now that you are history.
RE: They may now that you are history.
Alas, Hating on John Bolton isn’t going to change reality. I believe he is right.
“They may now that you are history.”
No. Bolton was not the obstacle, unless, in spite of the truth Bolton speaks about the thinking of the North Korean dictator, Trump would make a deal with them anyway; in spite of not getting true abandonment of the North’s nuclear ambitions.
Either the North Korean dictator mistakenly thinks that Trump without Bolton would make a deal that allowed them to keep their nuclear weapons, or the dictator is correct and he can - without Bolton - get a deal that let’s him keep his nuclear weapons.
If the North Korean leader is right about Bolton & Trump, and Bolton is right about him, Trump will pull an Obama and make a bad deal just to “make a deal” - for his “legacy”, just as Obama did.
On the other hand, if the North Korean leader is wrong, and Trump will not make a deal that agrees to let the North keep it’s nuclear weapons ambitions, but Bolton is right about what the North wants, then Trump is wasting his time, and the dictator in North Korea has still had a domestic P.R. success inside North Korea, as the “victorious leader” that for the first time in North Korea’s history got an American president sit down and meet directly with him. Inside North Korea that benefit to the dictator has been huge.
