As expected, Trump has fired HR McMaster and replaced him with John Bolton, the absolute worst possible person to be the National Security Adviser. Didn’t think Trump could make things worse? Oh foolish, foolish person. We are now all officially screwed.
The appointment of Bolton, which doesn’t require Senate confirmation, could lead to dramatic changes in the administration’s approach to crises around the world.
His appointment is certain to scramble the White House’s preparations for a proposed summit by the end of May between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Bolton is a fierce North Korea hawk who, in his prolific writings and television commentary, has said that preemptive war would likely be the only way to stop North Korea from obtaining the capability to attack the United States with a nuclear missile…
Bolton has been even more hawkish than Trump on Iran, pushing for the president to withdraw from the nuclear agreement that the United States and five other world powers reached with Tehran during the Obama administration.
In January, Bolton told Fox News that Trump should dump the nuclear deal, reimpose economic sanctions on Tehran, and work toward an overthrow of the government there.
Yes, let’s go to war against North Korea and watch a million or more South Koreans die, along with untold numbers of North Koreans, who are virtually brainwashed into supporting Kim. Why should Bolton care? They’re just dark-skinned people, not actual human beings or anything, as far as he’s concerned. And let’s just tear up the Iran agreement, which they are in full compliance with, tell the world that America can never be trusted to keep its promises, and get involved in yet another endless war that kills millions and costs trillions and further destabilizes the Middle East. Brilliant strategy.
This one single move could very well result in the deaths of millions and millions of innocent people. What more do you need to know than that?
And of course, let’s not forget that this is yet another story that was “fake news” but then actually happened. At this point, every time Trump or one of his underlings claims that a story in the media is false, you can be damn sure it isn’t.
