John Bolton Knew Trump Would Come After Him

Saturday, September 27, 2025

The FBI said it recovered classified documents and files marked "secret" from the office of Donald Trump's former national security adviser, John Bolton. Agents carried out a sweep of the Washington D.C. office of Bolton, now a vocal Trump critic and nemesis of the president, the same day it carried out an early morning raid at his home in Bethesda, Maryland, on Aug. 22.

In an updated paperback edition of his book, released in January 2024, Bolton predicted that Trump would use a second term to enact revenge on his political foes.

"Trump really cares only about retribution for himself, and it will consume much of a second term," he wrote.

I'm starting to wonder if Bolton was Bush's best pick.

You don't have to believe Bolton is a decent human being - because he's not - to understand that Trump is going after him as part of his unquenchable thirst for retribution.

Donald Trump will come after all of us. He has a List and that List extends to millions.

God is not mocked, and Donald Trump thinks that he is God.

John Bolton Knew Trump Would Come After Him

I wonder if people like Bolton ever sit back and contemplate how it is that a party they so long supported could have elected someone like Trump? Do they wonder if any of their actions might have contributed to people believing that he was the president that America needed?

You're far stupider than I ever imagined if you think there's any equivalency between what happened before and now.

It's sad to see, Gutes Deutsch.

Sad, but not surprising.

You've said a lot of really stupid ---- on this topic and have showed you have zero principles or values beyond your faux victim complex.
