I suspect they will find that Africa is more trouble than it is worth. The days when wealth consisted of diamonds and gold are over.
We can start by sending Bolton as US Ambassador to Zimbabwe, and when he has recovered and secured all US Interests there, promote him to Ambassador to South Africa where he can secure Private Property Interests there.
He can stay there till he gets it done, then deal with the endemic Ebola, again, there.
Who cares? What comes out of Africa? Extreme poverty, AIDS and pandemic diseases.
Africa is a place we can safely LEAVE ALONE. They don’t have nukes, they don’t launch global wars. They don’t border the USA and are separated by oceans. If they have something worth selling, they will sell it to whoever pays them cash for it. Stay out.

It’s not our problem.
Let them waste their resources in that crap hole.
Bolton is an extreme globalist. President Trump was elected to get us out of these insane Deep State adventures. I’m not amused.
Actually, the anti-American left-wing coup attempt taking place right now in America, which itself does incorporate a real conspiracy with, AND false information derived from actors within the Kremlin, which was paid for with money originally from the Clinton campaign, **is playing right into the middle of what appears to be, or may well be, a much larger scheme, or intentional diversion from Moscow and Putin, to *re-establish it’s strategic borders (to include Ukraine), and to re-establish dominant geopolitical influence throughout the Middle East.
An honest look at the bigger picture, seems to reveal Putin and Moscow are utilizing the left-wing coup against Trump by left-wing socialist in Washington, (a coup attempt partially derived from the Kremlin), to gain outright control of Ukraine, formally create a dangerous Moscow/Ankara alliance, flip Saudi Arabia against the US and Trump, and thereby re-establishing dominant geopolitical control of the energy supply of most of Europe, and China!
Reiterating it again - *The entire attempted coup against Trump, which is going on right now!, (which does in part derive from false information from the Kremlin), is vastly serving the desires and both theater and strategic, and economic interest of Russia and China, to weaken the US and Europe, and to force the subservience of European foreign policy into Russian and Chinese compliance.
Our President, and John Bolton are fight for our existence, and that of Europe, and most are too stupid, naive, and self focused to even see or care!
Agree with Bolton.
Agree with Bolton.
From boots on the ground, thanks to Obama and the Clintons, I can say, the Chinese now have near, or unexercised strategic controll of shipping lanes for all of the South China Sea, are forcing several countries throughout the Western Pacific and South Asian region to capitulate on numerous trade and security issues, (including Australia), and have now largely completed a larger naval and Marine base than we have in DJ at the mouth of the Red Sea. This gives China potential strategic control of all sea traffic into the Gulf of Aden, and Eastern Mediterranean Sea. China is now one of the most decisive military powers in the Middle East and Eastern Europe, due to their naval, marine, and air force facilities along the Horn of Africa!
Thankfully, conservatives in the US Congress were able to stop one of our US Air Force bases from being axed west of Gibralter, Southwest of Spain, as the Chinese were seeking to take it, which would have given them strategic control of shipping traffic across the Atlantic, and strategic control of the Strait of Gibralter and potential control of the entire Mediterranean Sea. This could bottle up our Sixth Fleet if things went South in a fight.
Thanks to Bill Clinton, China was given administrative control of the Panama Canal, and the Russians were finally able to build their largest Signals and Electronic Intelligence base in the Western Hemisphere in Nicaragua. Moscow also retains 2 brigades of Spetsnaz in Nicaragua. Additionally, since Clintons second term Moscow has been maintaining anywhere from 2 to 24 TU-160 Blackjack strategic bombers with nuclear cruise missiles, (carrying 12-240 nuclear warheads), and positioning the “Peter the Great” nuclear powered battle ship, with nuclear missiles, which typically travels with 3 to 5 Russian nuclear subs to Venezuela.
As well, while Obama was president, and HRC was SoS, Russia took and built a number of what are now Russian military posts in the Arctic, some of which are on the North American Canadian Shelf.
While this was happening, the Chinese also built roughly 12 PLA posts across Antarctica.
So beside the energy and rare Earth’s the Chinese are mining for electronics in Africa and South America, this is also enabling the Chinese to control or kill the free market of these materials in the US, while they increase geopolitical control globally, and attempt to get nation’s to turn against the US.
If these nations are making inroads due to voluntary business transactions, why is it our business? In contrast, leftist citizens of America and the EU nations are doing great harm by spreading abortion and LGBT throughout Africa.
The big thing the left has done is alienate Russia and the US. So that means we look weak and Russia will go with the more powerful of the three, which will obviously be China. Thank you American lefties...you can always be relied upn to sabotage your own country.
Man, going past what I have already stated, right now, there is a huge military buildup underway by the Russians in the Black Sea, the Mediterranean Sea, Lybia, and especially in Syria.
According to open source observation, there is a significant increase in Russian S-400’s, Russian Naval, Russian Air, and Russian Armor, being positioned around the Ukraine, and further south along the Syrian/Israeli border.
In addition, they have vastly increased naval, air, missile, and armor assets along Finland, in the Baltic, and especially in Kaleningrad, between Poland and Lithuania.
According to the numbers, Russia now has more naval assets in the Eastern Med than all of NATO combined. Not saying something will happen, but this is not looking good.
Evil never rests. There is no getting along, or neutral. When you play nice, and try passivism, evil takes advantage, and uses the passivism as a weapon against you!
Like the deterrent a gun can have on a deadly criminal invading your home, the best way to keep massive war and evil from happening, is the threat of extreme prejudicial death those with evil schemes are able to recognize.
Based on knowledge of history, and the knowledge of many tens of millions dead due to global socialists campaigns in the last century alone, and the quiet and continued attempts by socialist to subvert and overthrow our own country and end the liberty we have, Reagan made this point many times.
Today, the immorality which drives evil not only exists, it has grown much worse, and it has grown at home and abroad.
The less morality and character individuals and nation’s have, the more unable they are to even be able to recognize it, and the more likely they are to be conquered or fall from it.
I love ya, John, but we should know by now that friends can’t be bought.
