I have to admire Trump. Most of us wouldn’t kick a wounded animal, (ie Bolton), but be quiet and “pray” the guy doesn’t harm you, but nooooooooooooOOOooo!
Trump, jumps right in there, and basically says, hey look sucker, you just crapped in your nest. I gave you a chance to be part of the greatest administration of all time, but you blew it...
So, go ahead, testify, sell a book, go on CNN, do whatever you want. Tell people that I thought that Micron is a wimp, and that Merkel has bad breath, and that you think Trudeau is a two faced so n so...Go ahead... tell them how much I admire Xi.
Fact is, Trump is making a good argument for dissolving Congress. Let them carry on their impeachment until next November, and in the meantime, he, thru EO and the like, can get more and more done like building the wall, cutting taxes, signing deals...etc etc...
And Trump assuredly has evidence to discredit any lies Bolton would even think of telling the Senate.
Nappy is truly becoming a guy who is so far off the mark you can always believe the opposite of what he says. What a joke.
... which I gave him despite many saying “Don’t do it, sir,”
I know there's no way in hell Donald Trump ever really trusted the guy.
Although a neocon, I always thought Bolton was a patriot and, even though misguided, was loyal. Was basing on the fact that he did a “decent” job as UN Ambassador.
Talk about a bad judge of character in this case, dam%!
If Bolton is smart - he will NOT testify before the Senate.
Trump’s legal team will rip him a new one.
Trump’s remark about WW6 really confirms what alot of people say about Bolton. I mean, I’ve always seen it said he’s a huge warhawk, but it must really be true that Bolton’s entire purpose of being is to get into any fight he can dream up. Our military is the solution to every problem according to that guy.
Whatever little respect I had for Mr. Bolton has disappeared, he is just another swamp creature looking for his pay day.
***************
Cashing in. Making money off his government position — just like all the Swamp creatures do.
World War 6! LOL
Bolton has always alerted on my creep meter.
Yep, and we'll never see a law that prohibits ex-government officials from joining lobbyist firms, writing books, becoming media "analysts" - it is ALL about cashing in.

Relations went down hill just about then.
... and yet Trump retained him as his NSC advisor for a year and a half.
if I listened to him, we would be in World War Six by now,
AS always with Trump the real dispute is over policy and not personality.
None of these Never Trump neocons would care if Trump was sleeping with hookers in the Lincoln bedroom if he was bombing every country they wanted.

Haha!
This was my exact line of thinking too.
I’d be like, awww shheet, if I get aggressive with this guy now, while his is most insecure and think he can hit me while I’m vulnerable, I’d just be tempting him too.
My fear would be that he’d lie.
But Trump fears nothing.
I think it’s not only because he knows Bolton can’t really hurt him, even if he lies it will be refutable, but that it’s worth risking extended impeachment just to call some jack-arse’s bluff and ruin his own life. Trump will go on, and he will NOT be impeached just because of Bolton.
I don’t know why he hired him in the first place, Bolton’s worldview was well known and diametrically opposed to the President’s.
Who would hire a jerk like that?
Bolton has always been a warmongering neo-con artist. Trump should have listened to those who said, “don’t do it”. Bolton is like the snake in the poem that Trump used to read during his rallies in 2016.
Haley did a decent job as UN ambassador and would sell US out in a heartbeat, she has always been a Bush League Republican committed to making America into North Mexico, just like Micro Rubio and Flimsey Grahamnesty.
Our government suffers from widespread corruption and its only going to get worse as it continues to expand in size and scope thereby leading to an exponential increase in the opportunities to make money off it.
The result will be an ever decreasing confidence in our government. Our once most trusted agencies are now examples of scandals run amuck. And we only know a small fraction of what really goes on.
In the meantime don’t forget to pay your taxes so the people in our government can profit and prosper. /sarc
