The second-most dangerous American?

From Conservative columnist George Will:

[quote] Because John Bolton is five things President Trump is not — intelligent, educated, principled, articulate and experienced — and because of Bolton’s West Wing proximity to a president responsive to the most recent thought he has heard emanating from cable television or an employee, Bolton will soon be the second-most dangerous American. [/quote]

The American with the best foreign policy resume is now the national security advisor. This makes so much sense it is blowing the minds of leftists.
@jackjjackson This guy seems to be bothering some folks on the right as well, actually.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Oh. You mean the leftist wolves in sheep’s clothing? Baaaaaaaah. @MistyCee

Is that sheriff woody?
@MistyCee
WoodyAq · M
@jackjjackson His resume includes manipulating intelligence to support the invasion of Iraq. You good with that?
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Does not. He analyzed the intelligence he received. If manipulated at all it was further down the chain of command. Even then it’s more likely those folks made honest miscalculations. @WoodyAq
WoodyAq · M
@jackjjackson Nope. He actively massaged the intelligence and carried out vendettas against officials that disagreed with his interpretations.

He might have gotten away with it had he been right ... he wasn't.

Sheriff woody isn’t one to let facts get in the way of a good old fashioned witch hunt and lynching @WoodyAq @MistyCee
WoodyAq · M
@jackjjackson Try reading the facts before claiming, to paraphrase Hiliary Clinton, "a vast left-wing conspiracy."
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
I’ve written facts you’ve written your wet dreams 😉 @WoodyAq
TexChik · F
@jackjjackson mostly because Bolton isn’t a deep state operative or a never Trumper...Trump might have more success ! The lustcant stand that
WoodyAq · M
@jackjjackson Try looking at what [u]Republicans[/u] said about him when they refused to confirm him for UN ambassador. Then get back to me.
WoodyAq · M
@TexChik So Trumpets are jumping on the Middle East intervention bandwagon now, are they?

Shame. Non-intervention is one of the few tenets of Trumpism I actually respected.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Right after you get back to me when you’ve finished washing and waxing my car. @WoodyAq
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
I don’t know anything about Middle East bandwagons however I do know about a bad Iran deal and secretly giving Ariana pallets of cash. Facts. @WoodyAq
WoodyAq · M
@jackjjackson Yeah. I'm not doing that.

A little knowledge wouldn't hurt your posts about "reality" and "the facts".

But then, that isn't the Trump way...
WoodyAq · M
@jackjjackson Fine. So when are we invading? You going to volunteer?
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
The bad Iran deal and the money pallets are facts and you say you don’t want to discuss that. Figures. Not part of thr sheriff woody rush to judgment without facts program. @WoodyAq
WoodyAq · M
@jackjjackson I'm not disputing anything about the Iran deal. I'm merely pointing out that Bolton's history is one of championing ideologically motivated Middle East interventions.

If you don't like the Iran deal, what do you think Bolton's alternative is going to be? I don't know myself, but based on his history ...
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
We are dealing with new Middle East and worldwide facts. Fortunately we have great minds available to correctly process this information and not hyperbolically hypothesize. @WoodyAq
WoodyAq · M
@jackjjackson Uh huh. Who are they? Because Bolton processed the information wrong last time.

And if they say WAR! ... are you good with that?
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Not time for any ifs yet. Pompeo and Mattis are solid. What trash talking do you want to do about them? @WoodyAq
WoodyAq · M
@jackjjackson I ain't trash talking them. I'm saying that Bolton is strongly ideological, and pro-military intervention.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
So as I wrote the president has good advisors to process events. Appointing Bolton is a shot across the bow of NK to knock them off kilter a littler prior to the talks. Brilliant balance of good advisors. . @WoodyAq
WoodyAq · M
@jackjjackson If only Trump listened to advice ...
