'The room where it happened'

Google keeps taking down the links, but used DuckDuckGo to download it, the links already gone.

If anybody is curious but doesn't want to give the asshat any money to read the dubious content. I can upload it here for download as PDF, using jes a small hack.

Rt had a decent dig at bolton
Charterized him as

'the guy mad at trump for not going to war
With Iran after they shot down our drone
Last year...

Boltons a very bad guy
No matter him being right about a few things
Concerning trump...

thanks, that's very kind, but just as you have had issues with videos, unfortunately I don't have time to read any books lately. I think I got the jest of it already from watching a few youtube vids, and I can keep busy working while I watch it on cable tv. I'm sure anything else found to be worthwhile in the book will also be youtubed by a handful of comedians as well as other more serious sources, but I find Trumps daily ridiculousness much more palatable when a few chuckles are sprinkled in. I just hope that Bolton's decision not to testify during the useless impeachment will pay off better now by actually affecting the outcome of the upcoming election.

The value of his book
Will be found in between the lines

Jared and invanka have profitted over 1hundred million
During papa's presidency
All while weilding rediculously disproportional influnce

Especial as neither rated the security clearance
The background check which normally
Go with their positions
Require passing...

Colbert interviews John Bolton, accuses him of being naive, laughs in his face
https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2020/6 ... n-his-face" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

ELAINE: “Perhaps there’s more to Newman than meets the eye.”

JERRY: “No, there’s less.”

I’m reminded of this bit from Seinfeld whenever anyone ascribes any sort of complexity or gravitas or anything beyond a primal, raging, cotton candy-covered id to Donald Trump.

It’s wishful thinking — the idea that there must be something behind those rheumy, feral-child eyes because he’s president, after all. As we all know, that’s bullshit. And Stephen Colbert just called John Bolton out on this wildly inaccurate premise during an episode of The Late Show:

COLBERT: “I assume that you speak to your fellow long-term conservative Republicans who have served multiple administrations. What are they saying behind closed doors? I mean, there are high-profile things like The Lincoln Project and Republicans Against Trump, but when the cameras are off, what’s the conservative opinion of Donald Trump?”

BOLTON: Well, look, I think many of them, in fairness to Trump, look at the comparison — as I did in 2016 with Hillary Clinton — look at the comparison with Joe Biden and say, ‘Whatever we think of him he’s not going to be a Democrat subject, especially these days, to the pressure of the left.’ Look, I bought that argument in 2016 …”

COLBERT: [Laughs] “No, he’s going to be subject to the pressure of Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping. He’s a person willing to sell out the interests of the American people for his own reelection. What could be worse in Hillary Clinton or Joe Biden’s philosophy than betraying your country to a hostile foreign leader, sir?”

BOLTON: “Trust me, I understand that point.”

COLBERT: “But will you answer that question?”

BOLTON: “Yeah, I’m trying to.”

COLBERT: “Okay, I’m sorry. My apologies. Go ahead.”

BOLTON: “What I thought in 2016 was, we at least have to try it out, and so I voted for Trump. Having experienced 17 months of working with him, I can’t in good conscience do that again, and that’s why I’m not going to vote for him and I’m not going to vote for Biden.”

COLBERT: “I guess what’s exasperating is there is absolutely nothing that Donald Trump has done that is surprising to me. My rule is everything you think about Donald Trump is probably true, because he’s not deep enough to get your socks wet in. He’s incredibly readable. That’s why when he ran casinos, the house lost. There’s nothing to learn about him. That’s why he’s essentially a boring person. How did you not know beforehand that he was just callow?”

BOLTON: “Because I couldn’t believe it was that bad. And I know other people say they saw it from the beginning …”

COLBERT: “But you’re an international negotiator. How could you be naive? You’ve dealt with the worst people in the world.”

BOLTON: “You’re really insulted me now by calling me naive. Look, I thought it was possible to work with somebody. I thought surely they would want to learn about the complexities of arms control negotiations and that sort of thing, and as I detail in the book, that turned out not to be true.”


He thought Donald Trump — Donald Trump — wanted to learn about the complexities of arms control negotiations. DONALD FUCKING TRUMP. 

I’d have better luck teaching my dog string theory — which I don’t really understand and probably never will. 

And Bolton won’t vote for Joe Biden? Is he gonna write in “John Bolton,” because I don’t think that will help us end our long national nightmare. 

Again, I’m glad he wrote this book, but fuck this caramel corn-looking asshole. I could have written a tell-all nearly as revealing about Donald Trump. What a fucking dumbass. I wouldn’t trust him to advise me on ice cream flavors if he worked at Baskin-Robbins.

Bolton, Trump. Hard to say which is a worse human being. Garbage, the both of them.
