I have to think Bolton’s comment was part of the plan. It’s like “If you try to work with us, it still may not turn out well for your regime. You want to see how things work out when you don’t work with us?”
I have zero doubt about that. I don't listen to the media children who purposely spread lies an rumors about a WH is disarray or some other such nonsense.
It is a miracle the Washington Post got it mostly right
