Trump's Appointment of John Bolton A Betrayal of Trump's Base

^^this.
I’m tired of shit threads with shills or idiots spewing shit content.

If people think they’re going to die in ww3 (lol) you’re contacting the wrong place. Ain’t shit glp’ers got to do with that. Contact your congressman-he’ll save ya

Trump had issues with leakers and people not doing what they were told...throwing in Bolton in this circle dont make sense at all...unless a war with Iran is on the horizon and thats what Bolton stands for.

It certainly does not make sense considering what Trump campaigned on.

So you agree with CNN... good job communist.

Who do you want to replace him with?

Trumps not stupid. He needs someone that will back him up the instant something happens. That doesn't mean he will be giving Bolton a long leash though. Imagine if North Korea sent a nuclear missile headed straight for Washington or your home town. Would you want to have someone in there arguing with the President about which button to press.

I'd like to replace him with the Trump who promised to stop empire building.

To clarify, AC is in alignment with CNN and the criminal leftists who seek impeachment. Are you?

Second, state specific example of President Trump "empire building". Not Bolton, Our President.

Remember posts just like yours about Tillerson? McMaster? Cohn? Ad infinitum...?

EVERYONE supported the invasion of iraq in 2003.

If you disagree you're just young, stupid or delusional.

Ummm, okay. No problem.

Trump has not stopped the mindless war in Afghanistan. Instead he sent MORE troops and is continuing Obama's policy of spending more money on our troops fighting over there.

Trump has made so many belligerent remarks toward North Korea, some sort of limited nuclear conflict seems almost inevitable now, especially with war monger John Bolton at the helm now.

Trump has not stopped our empire building in any meaningful way. Instead he seems content to allow the Bush/Obama foreign policy continue unfettered.

Not what he campaigned on.

I used to be a fairly ardent supporter of Trump. But now that he's appointed John Bolton as his national security advisor, I'm wondering what is going on.

Trump made it clear while campaigning that he opposed the 2003 Iraq invasion and that he wanted to stop the empire building of the USA. No more continuous invading of other countries in the name of an ill defined War on Terror.

John Bolton not only supported and still supports the 2003 Iraq invasion, but he is known to be one of the most ardent pro-war, pro-invasion, pro-empire building people in DC.

Why has Trump done an about face by appointing such a war monger when he campaigned on ending all these mindless wars????

I agree the bill he signed recently is pretty bad, but it seems everyone is so focused on that, they've missed this thing about the Bolton appointment. If John Bolton is able to shape foreign policy and persuade Trump on these issues, that seems to be a far more dangerous development.

Maybe I missed this topic being discussed here before, but I wanted to throw this out here.

Does anyone think Trump's appointment of Bolton is not only a betrayal of what Trump campaigned on but also a warning that WW3 got that much closer?

John Bolton is an insane moron. He genuinely believes every bit of propaganda from the CIA. He somehow thinks that Saddam was our enemy and that Iraq is much better off because of the war. The man is a certifiable lunatic.

Hopefully, he wont have much influence with Trump. I think Trump is mostly appointing people based on how much he trusts them not to stab him in the back, more so than any advice they might offer. Bolton is just filling an empty seat.

Keep your friends close but keep your enemies closer.

I wanted to take you seriously, but it feels like a grown mans pity party about something that can't even be specifically defined, let alone will matter in 24 hours from now. Just like you wanted to wake up and have people listen to you complain about something you can feign wisdom about.
