Bolton is a patriot. I'm having a hard time believing he would knowingly jeopardize national security or be so ignorant as to not know he was doing it.

And anyone who says Trump is too stupid to be a fascist can't be all bad.

“I think it’s a mistake to get into a controversy over whether Trump meets the definition of fascist or not,” he told the news network’s Kaitlan Collins. “I think his behavior alone is troubling enough. To be a fascist, you have to have a philosophy. Trump’s not capable of that. You know, Adolf Hitler wrote a profoundly troubling book called ‘Mein Kampf’ – ‘My Struggle.’ Donald Trump couldn’t even read his way all the way through that book, let alone write something like it.”
