- Don’t get caught abusing any of your current or former wives.
- Don’t testify truthfully.
It shows his terrible taste and his immaturity, but it’s what comes out of his mouth that makes him a buffoon,not what he puts into it.
I haven’t eaten at McDonalds since the early 80’s - so I’m not defending that particular food choice.

Trump hype-man and former House speaker Newt Gringrich told the Post. “[Trump]’s not a buffoon.”
Well, considering that Paul Krugman once succinctly defined Newt as “a stupid person’s idea of what a smart person sounds like”, I’ll consider the source, as they say.

Trump’s terrible taste and immaturity are also evidence of buffoonery. His hair didn’t come out of his mouth, but it’s like the cherry on top of the buffoon-flavored ice cream sundae. I mean, we could go on and on about all the external and internal evidence of Trump’s deep commitment to being a buffoon, separate and apart from the buffoonish things that come out of his mouth.

In the after -times, perhaps we could co-teach a college course on 'What makes a Buffoon?" with deep textual analysis of his tweets and eating habits. And then make the graduate students into an experiment where one half of the class re-tweets texts from boys between the ages of 12 and 14, and the other half eats nothing but McDonalds and Kentucky Fried Chicken and see which section devolves.

Trump expects his aides to look the part, which Bolton never did —
Our reality show president wants people who look good on television with the classic exception of himself.

The mustache was reportedly what kept him from appointing him as NSA or SoS back in the beginning, even though Trump liked what he said on Fox which of course is the main criterion.
One of the root conflicts is that Trump really loves to talk tough, and loves other people who do, but hates to actually act. Whereas Bolton is not somebody to just bluff and bluster, he seriously wants to go to war with Iran.

And for all of those sacrifices you get a job with below industry standard pay. And have to live in an expensive city to boot.

John Bolton is a conservative extremist and sociopath. However, he is not a traitor. I think he’s uncovered hard evidence that Preshitident Skanky-Manslut and First Lady Iwanka are not just two-bit Putin whores but actual agents working for Russian intelligence. That explains the timing. The information on American spy looking over Putin’s shoulder is not a coincidence.

And many of us stopped voting for anyone who would run as an R, no matter how otherwise worthy. The very association becoming a disqualifier round here, was not always such. O that Newt!

A stupid person’s idea of what a smart person sounds like supplying justifications for a weak man’s idea of a strong man and a poor man’s idea of a rich man.

If he was a patriot, he would have reported it. But he didn’t and he’s not. Just another power junkie.

“Trump expects his aides to look the part, which Bolton never did”
What part does Pompeo look fit for?
“But, according to a Republican familiar with the relationship, Bolton’s worst flaw was “believing he could outmaneuver” Trump, in the Post’s words.”
Legit grievance but Trump is such a moron he draws people who expect to manipulate him

“Anybody who thinks they’re smart enough to manipulate Trump, they’re very foolish, and that’s what happens in this city,” Trump hype-man and former House speaker Newt Gringrich told the Post. "
It is really more an issue of being strong enough to manipulate him competitively against other manipulators. Really, Trump is a terminal narcissist. Pull it right and you are able to drag him by the nose to whatever end you want. But you have to beat out the other guys doing the same thing. Considering Papa Putin has complete sway with Trump, it is easy to see Bolton going down in flames.
“People mistake a willingness to eat cheeseburgers and drink Coke with being a buffoon, and he’s not a buffoon.”
Says Master Manipulator Rush Limbaugh. Lets see what Fox News has to say about this. Will the agree or up the ante?

I sure as hell didn’t make that mistake.
Mind you, Chiselin’ Trump is a buffoon, alright; but, not because of his willingness to eat cheeseburgers and drink Coke. He’s a buffoon for a whole host of other reasons, least amongst them being his fondness for hamberders.
