John Bolton’s Lethal Chokehold on Trump

[RighteousnessTemperance&]

I don't know how much of Mr. Bolton's book is true. I don't trust him, though.

What I do know is that his failure to voluntarily testify during the pre-impeachment hearings in the House indicates that his motives aren't pure. His attacking the Democrats for their failure to pursue additional information during impeachment proceedings would be a valid attack if he were not the very person responsible for withholding the information.

If you truly think that a President is as dangerous to the republic as Mr. Bolton seems to suggest, you take every opportunity you can to "do the right thing." That means that he shouldn't have demanded that his testimony be compelled by court order. He should have been willing to testify voluntarily, leaving the legal onus on the Trump administration to try to block him.

Then again, if he had disclosed all the information voluntarily, he wouldn't have had anything left for the book. It's sickening how obvious Bolton is in his pursuit of cash with this endeavor.

I don't know how much of his book will be true, either. A lot depends on whether they could suppress any of the lies, which would be doubtful. A47's comment on that is such a joke, like so much of his stuff.

I'm guessing the book would be much thinner and of little interest without the lies. He seems to be relying on a lot of unverifiable, secondhand information. With human nature what it is, hearsay in the court of public opinion during an election is dangerous gossip indeed.

"The words of a gossip are like choice morsels; they go down to the inmost parts," Proverbs 18:8.

Bolton saving all of this for a book instead of being a true patriot hurts his credibility. I'll do what works best, pray for guidance from the LORD.

I agree, and it's all in his favor. With the book, he is not under oath, so he can lie with impunity, he can rely on hearsay, and no one can cross examine him. Also, it will be difficult to counter in a timely manner anything he says. Plus he can make a ton of money by publishing during an election year. I would say the man now has no credibility as either a witness or a patriot, and add that leaving it at that is being far too nice.

Yeah, Bolton on his own is not trustworthy, we'll see if anyone with more credibility comes forward as a witness. He may lose all his 2 million to a lawsuit by the White House. CNN said Bolton may have violated certain procedures that wouldn't get the book pulled (due to the Constitution), but would cause him to forfeit his proceeds during a successful lawsuit. There appears to be precedent even according to CNN.

Beautiful. Bolton appears barely able to contain his utter disdain for Trump’s diplomacy.
