No wonder he sued
quote:

Mr. Bolton describes several episodes where the president expressed willingness to halt criminal investigations “to, in effect, give personal favors to dictators he liked,” citing cases involving major firms in China and Turkey. “The pattern looked like obstruction of justice as a way of life, which we couldn’t accept,” Mr. Bolton writes, adding that he reported his concerns to Attorney General William P. Barr. Mr. Bolton also adds a striking new allegation by saying that Mr. Trump overtly linked trade negotiations to his own political fortunes by asking President Xi Jinping of China to buy a lot of American agricultural products to help him win farm states in this year’s election. Mr. Trump, he writes, was “pleading with Xi to ensure he’d win. He stressed the importance of farmers, and increased Chinese purchases of soybeans and wheat in the electoral outcome.”

Bolton signed a Non Disclosure Agreement.

Bolton violated that NDA with this book.


And he has any shred of credibility why?


Oh that's right, becase "orange man bad"

No one has an ounce of credibility in any of your eyes. Not one. Even though this was just his NSA who is a big time conservative I’m sure he wishes like hell he never went to the WH so he could just bury his head in the sand like all of you

What does this even mean? Expressed willingness to? In effect?

This is all sour grapes, and not even illegal.

A politican trying to help his constituents by doing what he campaigned on to help them and get re-elected.

Trump has never been a Saint. He’s probably got a first class ticket to hell.

Assuming he was not the only one there, it should be really easy to find people to back up what Bolton is saying. I mean, unless you are lying, Bolton.

They're not real conservatives. They're Mitt Romney, John McCain Republicans, who enjoy being cucked by the likes of Schumer and Feinstein and company.

That Trump's style has forever been to throw out a bunch of shite in negotiations before getting down to what he actually does, none of which even taking Bolton at face value was obviously improper?

There are avenues for whistleblowers. Publishing a book for profit is not one of them, so why should we find this credible?

You poor simpleton, you think people go to work at the White House because they like the president.

If you will backstab your boss, you will lie to sell books. Bolton is a POS, just ask George Bush.

Because of a book?

Why didn't Bolton actually use the proper channels if Trump is so bad?

Surely he isnt just trying to sell books.
