Again, from your link:


The “election assistance” is regarding China agreeing to a deal in which they buy agricultural products from American farmers.

In absolutely no way is that a scandal

Engaging in trade deals with foreign nations is a basic job of the president.

It’s not “election interference”

Lol I’ve never read so much sensationalism trying to promote a bunch of nothing. Bolton must really need money. Somethings we learned:

1. Trump likes to complement XI privately. Shocking. He does this in public. It’s in Art Of the Deal.

2. Huawei is a trade talk bargaining chip. Whoaaaa wow. Who knew? It’s like we created our own leverage or something.

3. Trump doesn’t care about Chinese Muslims. This has been disputed already by Lighthizer but even if true, is Bolton saying this has to be part of the trade deal? Not sure anyone would agree

4. Trump considers his re-election chances in policy matters. Lol I’m not even sure I need to go further here but the irony of Bolton being shocked that a President is actually doing what he said he was going to do to get elected is mind boggling.

5. Bolton says Trump was insane for wanting military options in venzuala and then weak for being talked out of it by Putin. Which is it?

6. Bolton adds more innuendo to the Ukraine story but refused to testify under oath. Glad he put it in his book though. Even Adam Schift is calling him out.

I say drop the lawsuit and let him print the book. Quit giving it more free publicity than its due. From the excerpts, it just comes across as Bolton being a whiny bitch who has no concept of how to develop leverage and use it effectively.

ETA. In this bizarro clown world we are living in, the media and neoconservatives are now going to attack the original China Hawk as being weak on China. The same people that have given this country away and bitched and moaned the last 3 years about tariffs and trade wars are now going to try and sell the public that Trump is weak on China. Lol good luck.
