Bolton out - GMDino - 09-10-2019
Via tweet, of course.
....I asked John for his resignation, which was given to me this morning. I thank John very much for his service. I will be naming a new National Security Advisor next week.

Bolton was against the Taliban being invited on American soil. I disagree with Bolton on a lot of things, but I join Americans in the disgust over Trump's 9/11 plans.
Trump is siding with terrorist over American Intel and his advisors, but this is nothing new.
Wait for the book from Bolton admitting how horrific of a POTUS Trump is. But again, too little too late for the damage done to this great Nation.

I think everyone can sleep a little more soundly now that John Bolton is no longer in any position of power. I think that's a thought that all parties can get behind.

agree completely.
Bolton was dangerous.
Luckily, Trump just ignored him all the time anyway.

Yep.
Now, who put him there in the first place?
THAT guy shouldn't be in charge of making a ham sandwich!

Six of one. Half dozen of the other.
Bolton was a crazy choice for NSC adviser, but he did understand how foreign policy works inside regional and national strategy. He understood how insitutions worked.
Under him there was at least a better chance that the NSC was functioning minimally to research and develop foreign policy options. Now it is not certain that will be the case.
So the choice is between a dangerous NSC adviser who knew how to get things done long term, and a non functioning, chaotic NSC with no one really in charge and all manner of signals down the line that presenting accurate data could harm personal advancement.
