You might take a course on science sometime. Nah, probably not.

Ex-acting chief of staff unable to say how portions of Bolton's book are 'factually false' and also classified :o

It's pretty hard to figure.

And here is McEnany trying to explain away Trump's claim that he didn't know about Juneteenth until this month, among other lies she tells:

Somebody (likely Bambi) complained that it was unfair to compare the US to various countries because they are so much smaller. I suggested comparing the US to Europe or comparing countries in Europe to equivalently sized states.

Here is the former:

Christopher Pike seems far more appropriate.

A Bolton from The Blues
« Reply #39118 on: June 20, 2020, 04:42:14 AM »

The Bolton book could turn out perfect:
 
- Trump discredited by a GOP insider. 
- It brings into focus Trump's stupidity and ignorance, and concern only for himself and his reelection.   
- Even reminds folks all the crappy hires that Trump has made -- Bolton is and always has been a war mongering disloyal asshole. 

And the cherry on top is:
- Bolton could well lose the lawsuit and have all profits from the book confiscated, while the book is disseminated and widely read/quoted and undermines Trump.

So Bolton kicks the president in the groin, makes zero money from all his effort, and everybody hates him.   Nice going!
