Anyone notice the RIDICULOUS WH response to grifter Bolton's book?

1) it’s lies
2) it’s classified

How can something be a lie AND classified at the same time?

Either it’s a lie (and therefore impossible to be classified) or it’s the truth (and perhaps could be deemed classified which doesn’t matter now as the book is being leaked)

We STiLL have not seen the Mueller report nor has ANY democrat.

I want Bolton to tell us what is missing, if he cant be specific he sure as HELL can say what crimes were involved by the traitor.

...."the details contained in the book may not be truthful..." In that case, it wouldn't be "highly classified information" would it? Or, if it is actually highly classified AND not truthful, then extending that logic to his statement of: “I will consider every conversation with me as president, highly classified.", results in a condition of every conversation with tRump as being untruthful.

Probably faulty logic on my part but looks to me as he can't have it both ways.

the attorneys working with Bob Muller would have licked some of the report by now and finally exposed Barr needs a soap by now. I hope it comes out right in the October surprise that would be fair play since it was done to hurt Hillary.It is time for the tables to be turned and it does not make sense for the book to be classified and a lie at the same time. Trump has no credibility and not even his fans buy it,;but will ignore it to keep their KKK leader in power to make the blue state sweat or liberalsssssssssssssss or whatever they call it.
