I really do have to hand it to John Bolton.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

He has managed to provide us with some stunning and invaluable inside information, while still managing to remain the selfish, stubborn and otherwise useless asshole that we had all known him to be.

And with this gesture, he has spared us all having to take the time to wring our hands and debate furiously with one another, "Is John Bolton actually a good person? Is he a changed man? Is he now admirable? Do we need to speak positively of him now?"

No--no such debate is necessary, and with that time freed up, we can all go back to doing much more valuable and useful things.

John Bolton has provided us a great service, and also remains the same insufferable person we have always known him to be.

So with that, I say: Thank you, John Bolton. And also fuck you, John Bolton.

And as a measure of appreciation, I suggest we all go down to our local bookstore, pick up a copy of John Bolton's book, read it thoroughly, and then place it right back on the shelf, not spending a single penny on it.

3. That's how it is with so many of our enemies.

We've united against the common enemy of trumpism.
It's time we say thank you to our enemies for exposing the cancer on their side.
When trump is gone we can go back to fuck you.

4. While excoriating Bolton - which he deserves - we can't lose sight of what he wrote.

Bolton is a dick, but he is not a fantasist. There is no reason to believe he made that stuff up. For now I say we should set his dickishness aside (while not forgetting about it) and focus on the book's contents, which should find their way into as many campaign ads as possible. We don't have to buy the book to know what's in it; the juicy bits will be well-publicized, and I hope the GOPers have their noses rubbed in it all. Fuck you and thank you, John Bolton.

5. If you do decide to buy it in audio format...

You'll be treated to one of the finest audiobook narrators--and stage actors as well--out there, Robert Petkoff.
