    Scarily correct, that. Bolton never met a war he didn’t like. He’s convinced that the US needs to be King of the Hill, by any means necessary. I hope he doesn’t convince Donnie.

    Fox Noise is running the White House and Stache Man is their front man.

  3. Old Fart says:

    Funny how a *lack* of direct war experience seems to be such a major *incentive* to committing bodies to battle.

    It should be a requirement that one must go through a boot camp to get the “leaders” directly integrated with those to be committed to harms way. That is why people with that experience understand that war is the last, worst, option. OTOH, when done it must be explicitly focused for a discrete objective. Again, if one understands what is risked, one is more likely to be certain of committing resources required to accomplish the end result.
    Or to understand if the result *isn’t* worth it…

    It speaks very poorly of us as a nation that we question the affordability of benefits to take care of the least of us, but never discuss a war in terms of affordability.

  5. I read some rumblings that Johnny Warhawk may not be able to get a security clearance. If true that would be delicious.

  6. In this administration, lack of a security clearance doesn’t seem to slow anyone down.

  7. That Other Jean says:

    Trump can grant the Warhawks’ warhawk a security clearance all on his own, if he wants to, unfortunately.

  8. Trump needs a yuuuge distraction to keep from going to jail.

    “Bolton promised Trump “he wouldn’t (BE BLAMED) for starting any wars”

  9. Old Fart, I read a while back that during WWII the Brits least supportive of bombing German cities were the ones being bombed themselves. They knew what civilians would suffer and didn’t want to inflict it on the country whose leaders were attacking them. (Can’t remember the percentages– maybe still a lot supported bombing, but fewer than those not being bombed.)

    Yes, I worry when Donnie listens to the last one he heard. I do not want Bolton ever to be the last one he hears.

    Perfect. Absolutely perfect. Thank you for that one, JJ. You made my friggin’ day. This guy is the king of all right wing nut cases. The only positive thing about him is the opportunity he offers to political cartoonists and late-night comedians to mock him and his craziness.

    Dayum. Once again the history I learned in high school was incorrect. Joe Stalin isn’t dead.

  12. distractions? What kind of distraction will Drumpf come up with tomorrow to distract from “Sixty Minutes” program?

  13. Craig in Indep MO says: “…This guy is the king of all right wing nut cases.”
    You nailed it Craig. Bolton is the very paragon of RWNJdom.
    How I know this is that my very extreme RWNJ bro worshiped John Bolton way back in the early 2000’s, even more so than CheneyBoosh, Rumsfeld, etc., he was positively rapturous over ‘Stache-man.
    I suspect that bro (a raving teabagger before they existed) was also enamored of Trump back then too, he spoke of how ‘certain rich people’ should ‘run things’ and that they were ‘different’ than the rest of us; I had no idea who Trump was at the time nor who he might have been referring to then (we ceased communicating long before Trump came along politically).
    If bro is still alive, I imagine that he’s in a constant state of RWNJ ecstasy now, even as T&Lyin’ Ryan&McTurtle gut out his own social safety net-SS&Medicare (and yes, he owns an AR-15 and much more– completely 4F during VN, and was a petty criminal back then, who avoided mil service like the plague, has been a chickenhawk RWNJ ever since).
    Curiously, ~2008, bro made a long trip to Russia and toured the country from one side to the other for a few weeks with some of his RWNJ buddies. They unknowingly (really, had not a clue) acquired some very friendly ‘retired’ Russian military ‘friends’ as they continued on. These new ‘friends’ (from the GRU or whatever) were most helpful and attentive with the touring fools (IYKWIM).
    For some damned reason bro was very impressed with Russia, the way Putin ran it, etc., idolized Putin and wished we had someone like that, WTF?, (during the Obama admin especially).
    Of course, these RWNJ’s are all “Authoritarian” fans, ready to slavishly follow whoever appears to be the “bees knees” in dictatoring.
    In our current case, Comrade Donnei Bonespurs, no matter how corrupt and incompetent. They believe that even someone as ignorant as Trumpov will magically select “the best people”.

    We are doomed, unless Comrade Trump is brought down, one way or another.

  14. Susan on the Left Coast says:

    As we know, the president parrots FOX within minutes of their propaganda scripted panel’s blather…someone stated that the real president is Jim Doocy and Trump is only his stunt double.

    There is Ecstasy Level drug like giddiness in the evangelical demographics having Bolton re-enter the sphere in tandem with Apocalyptic bible thumper Pompeo heading to the CIA….the anticipated war in the middle east they hope these villains will instigate goes to their end goal: the mass slaughter of Jews in Israel so Jesus can be rebooted and smite those of us who don’t tithe in their brass plates.

    Trump’s giddiness is based upon his fantasies to fire nukes because of his childhood admiration for his nuclear scientist uncle’s glorifying a big kaboom where people become fused to things or turn into ashen sculptures. Anyone who will enable his fantasy is how he’s going chose “the best people.”

    Trump said his greatest pleasure is taking revenge upon those who betrayed him….it is not lost on many that he considers anyone who didn’t vote for him or nations who don’t bow to him….as a betrayal.

    Bolton has ties to Cambridge Analytica which will put him in Mueller’s spotlight. Let’s hope he gets indicted.

  16. Tilphousia says:

    Traitor trump is getting together his war cabinet. Cadet bone spurs who never doesn’t one nanosecond in the uniform of his country thinks that thermonuclear war is a video game. His ignorance and supreme arrogance must be stopped cold. Traitor trump has never had to answer to anyone. It’s more than time that he becomes accountable. As for Bolton, he’s a has been big mouth hawk. He sends troops to kill and be killed whilst he stays home in comfort. Let’s send him to Syria front line and see how he fares.

  17. Steve Sack is a great cartoonist and person. Bolton is murderous scum. Darth Cheney is worse.

    Tomorrow do we get to talk about the incredibly wonderful, inspiring student led marches? Please? Please?

  18. Debbo:
    No need to wait. Those kids were so amazing. Inspiring. My favorite thing so far is the young man who said “non-violence is the way for courageous people”.
    I’m sorry, but the thought that that statement will probably piss off people like Franklin Graham just tickles the sh*t out of me.

  19. Just saw the clip of Emma Gonzalez.
    “Fight for your life before it’s someone else’s job.”
    Wow.

  20. maryelle says:

    Rachel Maddow reported on Friday night that Bolton is also implicated in funneling Russian money to the NRA which of course ended up in the Dump campaign. There was a tape of Bolton speaking to a Russian gun rights group with Russian subtitles and proof that he attended an NRA fund raiser with Russians. Add to that the implications of conspiring with Cambridge Analytica while running a political PAC raising funds for Rethugs and Bolton may not make it to the situation room.

  21. AliceBeth says:

    Saw that Sen. Tim Kaine is focused on Bolton not getting a security clearance.

  22. maryelle, “Bolton may not make it to the situation room.”
    Bolton is in, as long as Bonespurs wants him there. Bolton isn’t subject to Senatorial confirmation, Chump simply appoints him. How corrupt or compromised he is doesn’t matter a rat’s ass either, as we have seen time and again with everybody and everything SOBOTUS does.

    The amount of damage to our nation (and the world) these assholes can do is incalculable. The rest of the world knows it too, and the chances of some of them (China?) someday making a preemptive strike to eliminate the threat increases weekly.

    22
  23. Bolton’s appointment does seem to be a fait accompli, but sooner rather than later, Mueller may bring additional indictments which might include Comrade Bollocks. It seems that when these snakes come slithering out from under their rocks, all sorts of grotesqueries come to light.
