I trust Bolton like I trust Mexican gas station tap sushi
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Samuel Adams

I once thought rather well of John Bolton.

My regard for him has steadily diminished over the past 4 or 5 years.

(I think I could say much the same for SCOTUS Chief Justice John Roberts.)
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

I see him as someone who is very good at a few select things and rubbish in everything else

me as well
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

I guess that is why early Presidential election polls are inaccurate.  People need to see the candidate speak and see him respond to a debate to get a better feel for them.

Yep, pretty much the same here.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

hahahahh.

Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".

It is my impression that he is almost certainly deep state and always has been.  This is based on his long and relatively successful career as an unelected apparatchik of the federal government.

Interesting excerpt from Sarah Sanders' upcoming book. You never know how accurate this stuff is, but if this is an example of how Bolton played, Maybe he had me fooled in earlier times:
