John Bolton says his past comments are now behind him

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Newly named White House national security adviser John Bolton tried to distance himself from his past statements on Thursday, mere minutes after being named President Donald Trump's new top national security aide.

Bolton told Fox News' "The Story" that his past comments are now "behind me" and what matters is "what the President says."

That's not a reassuring statement

1. Yeah, with trump,

Bolton can just be quiet.

3. But continue being an asshole.

Of course,

2. Bolton has a reputation for being very hot-headed, opinionated

and extreme in his views. It will be interesting to see how he and Trump, who can't stand to be bossed around, get along. And what about Russia? Bolton has been a Russia hawk for a long time, and he would like very much to bomb Iran, which would make Trump's BFF Putin very angry.

I'm not giving Bolton's tenure as NSA more than a few months; I just hope he doesn't start blowing stuff up before Trump fires him because he's too bossy, or he quits because he can't stand Trump's stupidity.

5. Bolton is the worst.

Start a fucking war. That always solves presidential problems.

[herding cats]

4. Yet, they're all in front of our eyes.

He's pulling the "I have sinned and been forgiven" BS. Except in this case his savior is Trump? Seriously?!

How brainwashed do you have to be to buy this load of bull?

6. What Happens...

What happens when you put two sociopathic liars into the same room? We will find out when Bolton meets with Don the Con in the White House.

9. Matter and antimatter. Those two will not get along.

They both will want to run things. Trump won't allow anyone to tell him what to do, and Bolton, who is evil but smart, won't want to take orders from someone as stupid as Trump. It's a match made in Hell.

7. In other words past fuckups are no guarantee of future failures

...but it's a pretty good start.
