Trump Lashes Out At Bolton In Wake Of Bombshell Manuscript: 'Nasty & Untrue Book'

[Zorro]

President Donald Trump blew up at former National Security Adviser John Bolton on Wednesday morning after Bolton’s damning accounts in his unpublished manuscript threw a wrench in Republican senators’ plan to block witnesses in the Senate impeachment trial.

“For a guy who couldn’t get approved for the Ambassador to the U.N. years ago, couldn’t get approved for anything since, ‘begged’ me for a non Senate approved job, which I gave him despite many saying ‘Don’t do it, sir,’ takes the job, mistakenly says ‘Libyan Model’ on T.V., and many more mistakes of judgement,” Trump ranted via Twitter. “Gets fired because frankly, if I listened to him, we would be in World War Six by now, and goes out and IMMEDIATELY writes a nasty & untrue book.”

The President also fired off at midnight a shorter complaint about Bolton, who departed from the White House on sour terms with Trump in September.

“Why didn’t John Bolton complain about this ‘nonsense’ a long time ago, when he was very publicly terminated,” Trump tweeted. “He said, not that it matters, NOTHING!”

So John Bolton is a "nasty" boy...and I think he may just get nastier...

1. It cannot be completely untrue and revealing national security secrets at the same time

Trump is such a spiteful moron.

[Watchfoxheadexplodes]

2. Fox news has labeled him a traitor basically

This could get really interesting fast.

4. Bolton doesn't take me as a person

who will back down from threats and criticism. I think that the negativity being brought against Bolton will encourage him to testify.

[jcgoldie]

8. Right

Carry on Donnie! Please piss in that punch bowl some more!

[gab13by13]

3. Trump, by talking about the book,

gave up his case for "confidential, privileged, " information.

[spanone]

5. As if he's read it.

[kentuck]

6. Witness tampering?

Attempting to influence the jury.

[bdamomma]

7. Let tRump keep on spewing

he always keeps on digging that hole bigger and bigger.

[Buns_of_Fire]

9. Yet still another person who "begged" Comrade Fatass for a job, I see.

Apparently, he doesn't just "hire" anyone. You gotta beg for it.

So Bolton's a nasty boy. No problem. Donnie likes it good 'n' nasty.

[Goodheart]

10. Let's see.... Bolton is willing to testify UNDER OATH, trump is not.

So which of the two should we believe?

[Mike 03]

11. Let them attack Bolton.

They'll turn a tropical storm into into a category 5 hurricane.

12. Keep digging dumbass. Nt
