"I certainly won't be voting for Biden. I'll write in a conservative Republican."

That's when I wanted to throw a brick through the TV. He just had to say it in that condescending tone, like, "OMG, I'd NEVER vote for a Democrat."

Two narcissistic assholes at the highest levels of our country - Trump and Bolton. If you know anything about narcissists it's that they do manage to get to very high levels in whatever career they're in, mostly due to their hubris. He's no exception. He'll be a footnote in history and Trump will be known only for being the worst president we ever had. They deserved each other.
