John Bolton is a traitor.

[OliverQ]

After refusing to show up for depositions today, he put out an opening statement through a PAC blaming everything on Democrats.

1. He never was an American; always just a shill for oil interests.

(e.g. PNAC).

[Botany]

2. And what does any of the following have to do w/Trump, Russia, the Ukraine, bribery, ...

... election interference or whatever else is in front of the committee?

"Radicalized Democrats normalizing socialism, Medicare for all, anti-israeli presidential
candidates, and open borders." 2020 talking points

[spanone]

3. Fuck bolton.

[Mike 03]

6. This.

I'm disappointed. I thought he'd seize this opportunity, even if it was to shape his own agenda. More naivete on my part.

[donkeypoofed]

4. Asking people to participate in a survey? Whaaaaat?

[dem4decades]

5. Republican equals Traitor

Simple as that.

7. He is a strange man with a reactionary world view.

He was one of the founders of PNAC and believes in right wing domestic policies and the idea that the United States should dominate the world. That is why he is angry at Trump. He sees Trump as making America weak.

[lunatica]

13. He specifically thinks dominating the world militarily.

He doesn’t even think in terms of dominating it in scientific research, or social issues or stopping hunger or human welfare. He believes in being The ONLY military superpower on the planet so that the US is the only country to benefit.

This can’t be stressed enough. It colors everything he does and says. He wants war and he’s willing to use our entire military might to get complete power, not to right wrongs, defend other countries or spread Democracy.

8. But who here is genuinely surprised? nt

[lpbk2713]

9. That's a given.

Anyone who would work under Trump has no interest in the future of their country.

[Wounded Bear]

10. Bolton is a PNAC piece of shit...

not to be trusted anyway.

[dalton99a]

11. Shocking behavior from a lying murderous neocon.

[erlewyne]

16. If Hitler would have bleached his mustache

Would Bolton have a look-a-like?

[Tommy_Carcetti]

12. I have no grand illusions about John Bolton other than him being a useful asshole.

I can't foresee any circumstance where he isn't an asshole.

Hopefully he'll still be useful.

[canetoad]

14. Bolton has a book coming out

He wouldn't want to put spoilers out before publication.

[Midnight Writer]

15. I wish I could say I am disappointed, or even slightly surprised.
