Anything that would implicate DJT is, of course, "top secret". We already saw what happened to the phone transcript with the Ukrainian President.

In other words, Trump doesn't like what it says.

Bolton should say what he needs to say. If it exonerates Trump, fine. If it doesn't, fine. He was there in the meeting. How is this BS? Let the truth come out, one way or the other.

BTW, a lot of what Trump has been hounded by is the media reporting what has come out of his mouth. That's not hearsay. I know he can't accept responsibility for anything he says or does though. It's always anybody's else's fault but his. Poor little snowflake.

So at the conclusion of Trump's case, the left wing house organ, the New York Times, printed an unverified leak that John Bolton unpublished book manuscript reported that Trump told Bolton what the Democrats have been trying to prove, although all their own democratic witnesses refute it.



If the smear is true, didn't Comey use a friend (in our case, Bolton' publisher) to leak his letter (Bolton's allegation) to the NYT. If it walks, talks, looks like a duck, its a duck. Same old, same old.



Fool me once. Let's see. Trump fired Bolton. So do you think Bolton might be harboring a grudge? What about Bolton? Oh. Yeah. He informed his first wife of his intention to divorce her at a press conference. So she read about it next day in the paper. WOW! Is Bolton a wild card. What do you think?
Let Bolton tell what he knows. If it exonerates Trump, fine. If not, fine. Trump bitched and moaned about hearsay, which many of witnesses weren't, but I digress. Let Bolton testify.

Default John Bolton Denied Publication Approval of Book

Three days before the New York Times received a selectively leaked copy of a book manuscript written by John Bolton, Mr. Bolton’s lawyers were informed by the White House the manuscript could not be published.

On January 23rd John Bolton was denied authorization to publish. On the evening of January 26th the New York Times wrote about a copy of the transcript. It now appears Bolton’s team held a retaliatory motive and may have leaked the manuscript themselves.

First, who has had access to the manuscript and read it. The second thing is, putting classified and top secret information in the manuscript in the first place is a crime.

Exactly. Hidden because it was politically sensitive, not for any other reason.

Trump equates whistleblowers with traitors, calls the press the enemy of the people and calls investigations into his own conduct treason.

Actually he's a criminal charlatan with megalomania ... he thinks he is at the center of the universe and the world revolves around him. Well, the Sun King he is not.
