Former White House national security adviser John Bolton reportedly claims in his forthcoming memoir that President Trump called for scumbag journalists to be “executed.”

Bolton said Trump made the comments during a meeting last summer in New Jersey, according to a copy of Bolton's book obtained by The Washington Post.

During the meeting, Trump said journalists should be jailed so they would have to expose their sources, Bolton wrote.

“These people should be executed. They are scumbags,” Trump said, according to Bolton's account chronicled in the memoir, “The Room Where It Happened.”

“ Bolton claims Trump called for scumbag journalists to be ‘executed’”

Once again, Trump talks big but no follow-through. “Promises kept” my eye.

These people should be executed. They are scumbags. ................................... I want to disagree with that, but................ at this point, seeing what they are doing, and how it is spreading, they aren’t looking out for the welfare of the nation. All I hear is the very loud voice of a minority, supported by a corrupt media, calling for chaos.

REPORTEDLY CLAIMS

The first hint that this is bullcrap from the lying commie pigs at The Hill.

So let’s say that Trump actually said these things. Here’s my take:

1) A lot of so-called “journalists” are, in fact, scumbags.

2) Trump is not the first, nor will he be the last, high government official in this country who was frustrated by the publishing of leaks having to do with national security, foreign policy or political strategies.

3) Trump is also not the first President who wanted to execute people - I believe that Calvin Coolidge (for one) wanted to have the power to execute any two people per year. Of course, I think that both of these men were joking, as a way of letting off steam at people who frustrated them to a very high degree.

In short, even IF he said this...YAWN!

This guy’s ego is too big for his body. Always thought there was something odd about him and now we know.
