Former national security adviser John Bolton derided President Donald Trumps daughter and son-in-law during a private speech last week and suggested his former boss approach to U.S. policy on Turkey is motivated by personal or financial interests, several people who were present for the remarks told NBC News.
According to six people who were there, Bolton also questioned the merits of Trump applying his business acumen to foreign policy, saying such issues cant be approached like the win-or-lose edict that drives real estate deals: When one deal doesnt work, you move on to the next.
