I know this might surprise you, but you can argue whatever you want. Its nonsense. Democrats arent fond of warmongers.

Apparently we can demonstrate with this appointment, that is more of a GOP thing. Bush got us into wars on Boltons urging, and now he has joined Trump.

And lets separate that out. The GOP base aint so fond of them either.

Good God. I knew a Trump presidency was going to be bad but not THIS bad.
This is truly sad. Trumps presidency is beyond chaotic at this point. Bolton is what the 3rd NSA guy.

Because he isn't a communist.

He's been bullied constantly by the left for so long now
he's capable of anything, so look out.

This is the kind of nutjob we're dealing with here, folks.

Man this is a bad move on Trump's part. Bolton will have us in every mess across the globe.

Trump??? Bullied by the left???
Get real....is that sarcasm???

Trump doesn't understand the difference between bullying and bad press---

He has had bad press based on his own actions and comments and because he has committed so many illegal acts and has really bad legal advice..
So Trump has done nothing the LEFT wanted---
Even the comments about his gun policy, he walked back...

WWI - Wilson (D)
WWII - FDR (D)
Korea - Truman (D)
Vietnam - LBJ (D) [escalated]
Haiti - Clinton (D)
Bosnia/Kosovo - Clinton (D)
Libya - Obama (D)
Syria - Obama (D)

Democrats LOVE war.

Bolton is just itching for a war with Iran. Good lord.

I thought Trump promised to keep us out of stupid wars. Bolton STILL thinks the Iraq war was a great idea.
