A little perspective about Bolton please.

[4th]

The war criminal doesn't become an OK guy just because Trump is going after him.
The ruling class fight among themselves all the time.

[BannonsLiver]

1. And here I thought he was a hero.

Thanks for the reminder.

[Tommy Carcetti]

2. Do I really have to post the Niemoller poem again?

Does anyone?

Get it now?

Don't worry. You will.

[Ocelot II]

3. I do not like John Bolton. I like him even less than I like Jim Comey, which is not at all.

Nevertheless, both of these men are being prosecuted for no reason other than their opposition to Trump, and that's despotism. We need to oppose those prosecutions loudly and hope they crash and burn ASAP, no matter what we think of the defendants otherwise.

[Hotler]

19. Both of them knew the orange one would do this. This shit didn't matter to them until it happened to them. nt

They both took an oath to defend and said nothing until they got the knock at the door.

[tritsofme]

4. It is clearly you who could use some perspective. Opposing Trump's baseless revenge prosecutions doesn't mean

anyone thinks Bolton is an “ok guy”

That is abject nonsense.

[Scrivener7]

5. I wish him a rollicking discovery phase and success in his case. And no one thinks he's an OK guy.

We're big girls and boys here.

[Boomerproud]

8. If discovery brings out the filthy truth and brings down the deserving people

I'm all for it.

[JI7]

6. Why do people have a problem with non democrats being anti Trump ?

He is clearly going after Bolton for personal revenge.

Why are you ok with that ?

[Vinca]

7. Because John Bolton had a chance to testify at an impeachment hearing, opting to save the dirt for his book.

I've always thought he might have been the key to getting Republicans to wake up and vote to impeach. We'll never know, but this episode feels more like karma than anything else. It also sounds like he might have actually done something illegal and while it's no doubt retribution, there might be some meat on the bone. Unlike Comey and James.

[Ocelot II]

10. None of that karma is rubbing off on Trump, though.

The big fat irony is that Bolton is being charged with the same crimes we know Trump actually committed.

[3catwoman3]

15. Trump, with his Maralago bathroom still full of boxes and boxes...

...of government documents he isn't supposed to have, daring to order the prosecution of Bolton is the definition of irony and hypocrisy.

[Vinca]

17. I know. The only saving grace is Trump's charge was dismissed with prejudice so it can be brought again.

That's probably why he's going try to be king for life.

[obamanut2012]

11. That still doesn't eman thiscshould be happening to him

[obamanut2012]

9. What does that have to do with his illegal charges?

[Silent Type]

12. I'm glad MTG is criticizing trump, but I'm still contributing to her Dem opposition, Retired General Shawn Harris.

[GreenWave]

13. I am hoping for Mutually Assured Mass Destruction.

[JI7]

14. Stop viewing politics like a religion

[Darnell1972]

18. Agreed

If the right wing wants to eat their own, I say pass the popcorn.

[Torchlight]

20. Has asserting he's an "OK guy" been an issue?
