Former national security adviser John Bolton described President Donald Trump's veto against the annual bill to fund the US military as "very destructive" and against the ideals of his own political party.
In a CNN interview on Wednesday, Bolton said he agreed with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, in that Trump's veto against the bipartisan bill was antithetical to the Republican party.
"Just to make a philosophical point, I think this is a very compelling piece of evidence why Donald Trump is not a conservative," Bolton said. "Nobody in the House or Senate, Republican or Democrat, likes every provision of this bill. But for 59 straight years, our parties have compromised their differences to give clear policy direction on defense for the full year."
"What Trump's veto does here, potentially, is put that in jeopardy at a time when we're suffering from one of the worst computer attacks in our history, when we see threats all around the world continuing to grow from China and elsewhere," Bolton added.
