John Bolton is more credible in the Conservative world than Donald Trump So was John McCain. So was Mitt Romney. There were many others but those two were former Republican presidential nominees. For the most part, only democrats will buy that book. I hope it's an utter flop because he's not telling anyone anything they didn't already know or vehemently deny. I'd bet my scrawny ass that the death threats have already started rolling in.

Just as a contribution to mutual understanding: I think people are talking about two different things on the misplaced topic issue. There is a current Roundtable Topic within the Roundtable Forum. The RT Forum should contain nothing but RT Topics. A poster created a new Bolton's Book Topic within the RT Forum instead of a different Forum or a new Forum. That's something counter to the organization of ReaderRant.
The confusion is because both topic and forum are named RoundTable. And most non-moderators never even look at the forum list. I hardly ever do. A suitable topic is almost always in the Current Topics list. Only when one isn't, will I look at the Forum List and search for one or create a new topic in an appropriate forum.

Funny thing: Trump tweeted that Bolton's book is all lies. Then how could it release classified information? Trump just killed his own case.
Unless you interpret "classified information" as anything Trump doesn't like. I kind of doubt any judge would go along with that definition.

I just preordered the book from Amazon.com, and will be downloading it on Tuesday. I was kind of torn as to whether I should put money in Bolton's pocket by buying it. After all, he refused to testify at the impeachment hearings, and it appears he was saving his testimony for his book. As a result, Trump skated. Trump probably would have skated anyways, but Bolton is no hero. He is a douche bag. However, curiosity won out, and I will be reading the book in a couple of days.

If they were lies, they never would have been classified. Trump wants to have his feces sandwiches and eat them too.** ** Disclaimer - Trump doesn't like feces sandwiches. He hates bread.

Trump believes that any conversation with Him is classified. Remember all the non-disclosure agreements everyone around him has always signed? You can't force cicil servants to sign them because they don't work for you, they work for the government.
But he has always demanded loyalty from the people he will throw under the bus at a moments notice.
