âThe President takes him at his word,â Bolton responded.
âI know he does, but what about you?â Tapper asked.
âMy opinion doesnât matter,â Bolton said. âI am not the national security decision maker. Thatâs his view.â
John Bolton on how he keeps his job in this administration.
Here is a man with deep convictions!
Bolton
My opinion doesnât matter
Exactly what tRump looks for in any adviserâŚ
Why on earth you have advisers if they are not allowed to hold opinions is beyond me
We know that in a regime like Kimâs the buck stops with him. Anything that his regime does is his responsibility. So at the end what does it matter if he personally knew and approved. He is still responsible. We also know that Wambier wasnât released promptly after he was injured.
Itâs one thing to know that your opinion will not ultimately prevail, but Bolton knows that Trump doesnât care at all about his opinion. How long does a person with any degree of self-respect work for a boss like that?
Of course your opinion matters, shit-for-brains. Otherwise, why are you called the NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISOR? Do you never do any advising then, and, if so, why are you even there?
In the current mal-administration? About nine months.

Bolt-on is just Trumpâs strap-on.
âIf I want your opinion, Iâll give it to youâ
âAfter Trumpâs initial assessment post-Hanoi that âI donât believe [Kim] would have allowed that,â Trump tweeted in response to critics on both sides of the aisle, including Warmbierâs family: âOf course I hold North Korea responsible [âŚ] for Ottoâs mistreatment and death.â
Iâm still not clear on why this quote is being repeated by the media. (The WaPo presented it as Trumpâs later âclarification.â) The issue is not whether North Korea is responsible for the death. Even Trump does not deny that. The question is whether Kim was personally aware and responsible. That quote completely sidesteps the question and therefore is irrelevant.
The NCAAâs are a goinâ onâŚ
And we got ourselves a genuine Dictatorship.
Between the bookends of the no-question GOP performance at the Cohen Hearing and this sycophant todayâŚ
Thatâs all the proof we need.
A person with any degree of self-respect doesnât take the job.
He loses 30% of his credibility when that mustache enters the room before he does. He loses the other 70% when he opens his mouth.
âMy opinions on matters of national security donât matter, since I am a national security advisorâ, says the Porn Stache of International Relations
a person with any degree of self respect wouldnât take the job in the first place
Oh for fuckâs sake, no we donât. Our would-be âgenuine dictatorâ canât quite muster the gumption to build a fence. Literally, heâs trying to blow his entire cache of political capital on a fence. And he canât get his fence.
Words matter. People who cry wolf are gradually no longer taken seriously.
He has his mind on Iran. They have way more oil than The NoKos.
