Of course you do. No big surprise there. 
More free stuff?
I might buy Bolton’s book.
In 2018, Trump came under fire for writing an unfettered defense of Mohammed bin Salman over the killing of Jamaal Khashoggi.
According to Bolton, the main goal of the defense was to take away attention from a story about Ivanka using her personal email for government business.

I may even buy the hardcover instead of the Kindle, so I can pass it around.

Trump is going to put The Onion out of business. They can’t make up anything more absurd than this reality.
“Bolton recounts numerous private conversations Trump had with other leaders that revealed the limits of his knowledge. He recalls Trump asking Kelly if the nation of Finland is part of Russia.

It is difficult to know for sure how many copies of Mr. Trump’s book were sold through bulk orders, whether to the R.N.C. or other groups. The Times does not disclose the methodology behind its best-seller lists, and the dagger symbol only indicates that at least some bookstores reported bulk sales.
Could be. I’m against free stuff.
Bolton’s 592-page memoir, obtained by The Washington Post, is the most substantive, critical dissection of the president from an administration insider so far, coming from a conservative who has worked in Republican administrations for decades and is a longtime contributor to Fox News. It portrays Trump as an “erratic” and “stunningly uninformed” commander in chief, and lays out a long series of jarring and troubling encounters between the president, his top advisers and foreign leaders.
Can’t wait.
That is hilarious.
“During Mr. Trump’s 2018 meeting with North Korea’s leader, according to the book, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo slipped Mr. Bolton a note disparaging the president, saying, ‘He is so full of ■■■■■■■

Well, as most of us already knew, the Quid Pro Quo was explicit and came directly from Trump. He was impeached for good cause.
The book confirms House testimony that Mr. Bolton was wary all along of the president’s actions with regard to Ukraine and that Mr. Trump explicitly linked the security aid to investigations involving Mr. Biden and Hillary Clinton. On Aug. 20, Mr. Bolton writes, Mr. Trump “said he wasn’t in favor of sending them anything until all the Russia-investigation materials related to Clinton and Biden had been turned over.” Mr. Bolton writes that he, Mr. Pompeo and Defense Secretary Mark T. Esper tried eight to 10 times to get Mr. Trump to release the aid.
What? Nooooo. The problem with these books is it’s just reaffirmation of everything people assumed but were told wasn’t true. Trump cares deeply about corruption in the Ukraine, it has nothing to do with the election etc.
And the people who spin won’t be effected by an account from Bolton, probably not even Trump himself like when he said he fired Comey because of the Russia thing.

In the months following the summit, Bolton described Trump’s inordinate interest in Pompeo delivering an autographed copy of Elton John’s “Rocket Man” on CD to Kim during Pompeo’s follow-on visit to North Korea. Trump had used the term “Little Rocket Man” to criticize the North Korean leader but subsequently tried to convince Kim that it was a term of affection.
“Trump didn’t seem to realize Pompeo hadn’t actually seen Kim Jong Un [during the trip], asking if Pompeo had handed” the CD, wrote Bolton. “Pompeo had not. Getting this CD to Kim remained a high priority for several months.”
What a tool. Like a teenage girl.

It’s hardly surprising that Trump supported the Chinese government putting Muslims in concentration camps, but it is still shocking he actually endorsed it to Xi.

Bolton writing about the things he could have blown the whistle on at the time yet put his own financial interests ahead of the American people when it counted. Screw him.
