and good boxers know how to use it to their advantage. Lets hope the Con keeps it at bay or the Generals restrain him from any further unnecessary aggression.

I read where Bolton raised his "job well done flag" on the drone killing of the Iranian General. Seems that Bolton is determined to stay relevant either for his book, or legacy. Or, both? This villain, could be made a hero much like Ollie North but in this case he has to politically stab the emperor to foster in the end of this American nightmare.
