Oh, yes.

His theory is that Bolton, Mattis, and Kelly "didn't have what it takes."

And you? You lap it right up.

If he is "leader of the party," it is leading them down the drain. I am no Bolton fan, but your and Jared's inability to discern the difference between having what it takes and being a wham-it doll for the Loon-in-Chief is truly unfortunate.

More people hacked to death in a terror attack in London today by you know who.
Yes, so many on the terror watch list the agencies can't track them all.

Britain/Britons were warned but refused to listen.

Speaking of loons:

https://missoulian.com/news/state-and-regional/billings-legislator-insists-constitution-says-it-s-ok-to-shoot/article_5a58bb79-52f9-5694-a0b6-8a905f37798c.html?fbclid=IwAR04jiUwbpv_hALoMPkHrX11gBcRGZJLB3uisOeREIthFWjhwK14Tg8Nccw

This state legislator thinks the US Constitution says one is supposed to shoot or jail socialists, though he could not identify where it says that.

Your take on the Bolton hire was that he was dangerous

Then when we got rid of him for being dangerous you defended him

How many people do you think were hacked to death today in London, pray tell?

It was zero, last I heard, with one at risk of death and one other injured by the attacker.

Haven't defended him from being fired.

Have defended him from "didn't have what it takes" from Jared "Peace Plan" Kushner.

Have defended him from "no, we don't want to hear what he has to say."

Have attacked him for delaying his testimony.

Try to keep up.

No room for government folks in a trump administration. Crooks on the other hand can get whatever job they pay for. Just ask Lev Parnas and Bill Barr.

I’m leaning Liz, Bernie, or Mike. It’s either a real populist or a top shelf plutocrat. Some of the best presidents have been traitors to the monied class and there’s no question that Mike can outspend Putin and kick the shit out of trump.

A shining example to all.   And his latest book,  and most politically messaged (it concerns events that relate to governments that hold children captive and abuse them),  is a good page-turner and thought-provoker: "The Institute"  Yes,  there are dozens of YA novels with the same basic plot,  but King's mastery as a storyteller had me going into the wee hours.
